    A solid 80% of people in the imperial core are unreachable at this time so it’s frankly a waste of energy. I’m not saying this to be a doomer but to temper your expectation. Still organize where you can but the reason there isn’t a US Bolshevik Party isn’t your lack of effort or skill, it’s that the working class of the US are still mostly bourgeois proletariats who don’t stand to gain much from socialism right now.

    That may change in the near future so be prepared but don’t beat yourself up that you local PSL chapter can barely organize a bake sale. I don’t blame people for being a bit grill pilled right now cuz what else is there to do?

        Engels once called the British working class “bourgeois proletarians” because of their privileged conditions relative to the rest of the working class globally.

        It basically means the same thing as labor aristocrat.
