The idea that there is no communist movement in the US because things haven't gotten bad enough here yet I find to be an especially frustrating expression of idealism, which does little more than absolve communists here of the responsibility to organize under our present conditions. From a materialist perspective, all we can really conclude is that strategies which communists have used to organize under harsher political economic conditions cannot be simply transferred to conditions of relative stability and prosperity. But to say that the masses have not yet suffered enough, is effectively to conclude that these unapplicable strategies are the only means of communist organizing!

The only thing that will turn the tide is solidarity. It’s community. It’s looking out for one another. This isn’t 1776; it’s not gonna be about picking up your musket and picking off redcoats. It’s gonna be about walking out of your job or walking out of school. It’s gonna be about shutting this bitch down in a way that puts congress to shame. It’s going to be us, coming together despite our differences and realizing that we all share a common foe: the ultra-wealthy.
