yes, the guy who volunteered to join the world police, the great cracker army, the yankee SS of the fourth reich, etc, was deployed to afghanistan, came back and thought "the problem here is that i'm not the boss" so he joined west point and decided to become an officer, did not want to be a troop.

oh, but he wore a shirt from hot topic and wrote "communism rules" in his hat, sorry i was being very tanky and didn't notice that part. he also asked very nicely for his nazi pals still in the army to put down their guns and hold hands with him in front of their local FBI headquarters so they can do a revolution and overthrow the government. my bad, hes good now.

apropos to nothing posted:

its not a matter of recruiting those middle/upper middle class people into the party its about keeping them neutral or at least not mobilizing in opposition. if you've ever done any mass work you know that within most labor orgs and unions these folks exist, as well as any "activist" type org. groups like indivisible, our revolution, and even some DSA chapters are filled with high wage earners/middle class/petite bourgeois/however you want to classify them folk. obviously indivisible is not filled with socialists, but you can find success mobilizing their membership around certain issues and demands given the right approach and how receptive groups like those are can often be a good barometer of how the public at large will respond when canvassing and tabling.

agreedo

the ideological dedication of bourgies is always questionable, but the fact that these people can be mobilized and coopted into nominally socialist projects is for me at least a sign that their class unity can be broken. people do respond to moral arguments in spite of material interests for emotional reasons, so long as they feel they’re being argued with genuinely. treating class enemies as class enemies from the get-go, without making them feel like you’re giving them a chance, is going to make them reject everything you have to say regardless of your arguments

I agree in general but the danger is that you'll get a bunch of rich people who call themselves socialist but are opposed to any actual leftward movement in policy; basically D&D posters

Just keep in mind that their alignment stems from the Polayinian Double Movement against market destabilization of social protections and not from class consciousness

This makes them the most open to compromise and abandoning the workers

is that an actual danger tho? cuz I can’t really think of any instance where people calling themselves socialists in spite of everything they actually believe in has been something that broke a movement. social democrats had their poo poo rear end compromise with capitalists from the getgo and the results speak for themselves, but beyond that I can’t really think of any instance of a movement being ’infiltrated’ by people lying about being socialists

lol making GBS threads on a veteran who wants to do communism- you all are going to be theorizing about how to relate to bringing more people over to the revolution in 50 years when you are all eating bug paste in a dome. anyone who knows how to use a weapon or command people in combat needs to gtfo we are having the same argument over the labor theory of value that weve been having since the last time you could go outside without a full biohazard suit
