I’m not hoping for anything other than marginally increasing class consciousness in a handful of people. Electoralism won’t accomplish anything, but if he can shift the Overton Window just a smidge to make Socialism be a bit less scary to some people while at the same time showing how the “lesser evil” democrats will fucking annihilate anything to the left of Bush Jr. then he’ll have done his job.

I just hope that leftist groups in the US, particularly New York, see this as an opportunity to stuff some actual theory down the gullets of all the baby birdies lined up gawking at Zohran and what the democrats are gonna do to him between now and November.
