    you added some nuance.

    We do wait for material conditions to align

    we do, but we do need a critical mass of people, our interests aligned, and to be prepared to swiftly seize the opportunity. all of that’s easier said, and needs a lot of work.

    we absolutely expect revolutions to improve life dramatically

    in the medium-long term though, right? I don’t really expect my country to be rebuilt overnight, but i can see how we’d start having something reasonable in the decade post revolution, if all goes right. socialism often has to be born from the ashes of scorched-earth capitalism.

    easier to believe in the End of the World for some people than the End of Capitalism

    preach. i think it’s one of our biggest obstacles tbh.
