And you've been working on it for twenty years with nothing to show for it but the staunch belief that the people you're "organizing" are children who need to have their behavior corrected. If nobody is starting an armed revolution, nobody is organizing the mass of workers either

If you discount the considerable amount of time I've spent talking to people online in what amount to study groups and trying to hash out the correct way forward, no, I don't. Neither did any of my coworkers in food service or customer service. It would have been a joke to them.

We were in the same one, if I remember correctly. Do you really think "disconnection from struggle" is a better explanation for its breakdown than radically alienating struggle sessions on the pretense of flimsy, contradictory rules often made up on the spot?

A forum isn't an organization? You think the danger for DSA is becoming IWW, but it's been clear for a minute that the biggest danger is turning into LF. If you think those dynamics don't function in in-person interactions you can believe that at your own peril.

I've been to meetings for student groups and the DSA. Neither convinced me that my time would be well spent with them, though I give to DSA. The PSL doesn't exist in my small city of only 3 million - I checked - and I've never worked in a union industry.
