Patsocs tend to want to focus on productive labor and suggest working with students, lumpen proletarians and the average service worker is inefficient. I’ve heard the defense of this that blue-collar workers, truckers, etc are the ones who actually have the power to shut stuff down, and are therefore the most powerful for revolution and so on. Is that a valid line of argument? Is it a good strategy to focus on organizing those workers?
Now this is why genzedong on lemmygrad is superior to genzedong on reddit, because a struggle session on labor is exactly the kind of struggle session we should be having. Not the monthly “is Bernie really that bad” or the weekly “hey guys, is porn okay” we always seemed to get on reddit.
Absolutely, and thank you for your excellent contributions in this thread too.
