To be fair, calling for a great war against the hegemon BASICALLY means WW3, but I see what you're saying. They're seething at the mouth to justify pummeling a country to ashes

You don't think that America falling would advance the revolution? I don't need them to explicitly say "yes this is a Marxist-Leninist revolution"
Happy birthday my friend, you will be gifted with the fall of the empire within your lifetime
Definitely good, but how serious are you about the pictures thing?
Every event I've ever been to I've wanted to amplify and the way to do that is through videos and posting pictures. Obviously your face and other people's faces should try to stay out of it, but just a span of the size of the crowd isn't hurting anyone.
I might be biased because I am honestly at the point of just saying fuck it with my identity being linked to communism. If the pigs want to find me, they already have plenty of evidence of me being involved with this and there's no shame in my game. They don't need a reason to do something to me, so I might as well amplify and document this shit.
I do agree about clothing and blending in.
It does. I'm on an anti-psychotic/anti-depressant right now that knocks me the fuck out for 12 hours at a time, though, which is really rough. I can barely wake up the next morning and I'm late to a lot of things, even political events I genuinely want to be at. There have been times where I sleep from 11pm to 1pm the next day completely uninterrupted.
Now when I don't take them, I literally cannot sleep. Last night I was up all night and then I conked at 8am until 1pm.
Don't fuck with your sleep.
NO NEED TO RAIN ON THE PARADE WITH A DOSE OF REALISM OKAY
Jk, I figured. But still, the fact that it was the Bolsheviks that actually were able to make it happen and seize power is inspiring
Apologies, just did a reading and it said that in February of 1917 they had 24,000 members. By the October of that year they had 200,000.
Still, 24,000 is a very small number. I'm sure it had to do with the increasingly worsening material conditions and diligent party work done by the Bolsheviks.
Nah you're definitely right. The whole insufferable leftist stereotype is kinda true haha
Definitely not. There's literally like 600 million people in the core added together, you do not need even a tenth of them to be active revolutionaries for something like that to work.
Think about 50 million people actively erm... doing a Marxism-Leninism. There's no stopping that.
In another post, a comrade brought to my attention that just months before the revolution there were only 8,000 party members in the Bolsheviks. That should bring you relief.
Totally agree.
It's not unlikely there will actually be inter-bourgeois conflict
That's kind of what I mean. Like others have said, I don't see nukes flying/world ending scenario anytime soon, but large redistribution of power and yes, bourgeois infighting which will create perfect conditions for a revolution.
Wow, that Bolshevik fact is seriously comforting.
Same here in the states. Just frothing to give an excuse to start the bloodshed with all the buzzwords you included. Jihadist, terrorist, etc
