very good points, yet this seems more like pan-online-ism than pan leftism.
at least for my local area, we are the most active and apparent Marxist party. anarchists get along with us, join our reading groups (sometimes) and actions (frequently) because we actually do things. we rarely discuss anything that isn’t about our work, and people choose not to be involved with us rather than demand we change our tactics and education. liberals are afraid of us, they don’t interact much, and it’s usually them just gathering intel on us when they do. some of them complain that we don’t support liberal actions enough, well sorry maybe if you listened to workers instead of this bullshit “they’ll come around to us” mentality you’d actually be helping. we had a local radio segment recently, but the more radical component of housing rights was edited out.
