There's no organizing potential in the USA at all. Everyone only thinks social democrats are the most radical option. Reddit third-worldists call me evil for being born here. I'm scum for being born in this country. I know it at this point, I'm evil for benefitting from imperialism, we're all labor aristocrats, so why bother? I don't even feel the strength to get out of bed anymore. I just want to lay here until I die or until I get evicted and die on the streets. I'm to scared to kill myself, so may as well. I'm just so tired of everything, of seeing the rights of my closest friends being peeled away and there being no viable way to stop it because, again, everyone here only thinks voting is the way out.

there's no orgs here and i've lived an isolated life due to neurodivergence, so i don't claim a specific tendency.

i'd love to take part but nobody will meet me even 10% of the way. nobody masks. unions barely exist. no group is travelling into my backwater to do outreach or recruitment.

those people that struggled had each other. they had community and solidarity. Castro had 82 men and said he could have started the revolution with 10 or 15. I have none. I'm thousands of kilometers from the nearest person i would call a friend, let alone a comrade.
