I'm not kidding. Urban areas with a high density of population are always more left-wing than rural areas. Lonely losers are the ones who become incels/groypers and shit. Workers who worked in small businesses with few colleagues were the most likely to support the literal NSDAP in the 30's. The more people you talk to the more likely you are you support left-wing ideas. I just have to make a shit ton of friends and the revolutionary spirit will bring about communism. Wish me luck comrades. Also logout gunpoint-alt

I fully agree in fact, I think it'd be the biggest challenge to overcome, socializing despite how hard capitalism made it to. The vanguard party needs to organise socialising for the masses. We need mutual aid that directly consists in bringing people together

Back when there was a substantial labour movement socialising was absolutely a part of their strategy. They didn't just organise strikes or hold political meetings they also organised dances, social events for pensioners, night classes, bands, scouting associations — the works.

All of this soft cultural work was not only helping workers to make the best out of the current conditions under capitalism, it helped to build class consciousness and solidarity. I believe that a future successful proletarian movement will need to incorporate these elements as well.

That does remind me. If we are going to organize, part of the strategy should be to make the left the fun side.

There’s actually an article about it, although it was written by a liberal doing electoralism: here
