Ok, so what is your new strategy then?

Currently our group has been working on raising avereness of unions since there are a lot of white collar workers that aren't a member of any union. We are also trying to popularise the coop business model especially in the public sector. We are also advocating for wealth redistribution reforms. The USSR kinda ruined calling yourself a socialist(And calling yourself a communist here will more likely get you punched here) so a lot of advocacy has been about pushing for socialist ideas with different wording.

For more long term we are hoping to get unions more involved in government and possibly form a worker's party with the union members.

Ok, that's all well and good, but nothing new, so what's the new strategy you mentioned?

The workers party we are forming will be domocratic with no strongman.
