Bourgeoisie states really do gaslight people. People get immersed in this belief that societal progress is this super hard struggle that always takes decades or more to achieve any progress on.

And then AES states are like... what do you mean, decades of struggle? We rapidly transformed this sector over here in just a few short years. And that was while dealing with constant attempts by bourgeoisie states to undermine/destroy us.

If AES states had been running things in the early 1900s and kept that power til now, we wouldn't even need to have a conversation about climate change today. They would have made pollution largely inconsequential by now and made it look easy. We'd be living in a near utopia with all the rapid progress.

Colonialism and imperialism in particular have been holding humanity back for centuries now. Choking it out. So that a handful can continue to live like monarchs. AES states are the living proof that when you have sovereign working class power outside of that, you can rapidly transform toward better. You aren't languishing in "maybe in another election cycle, we'll move the needle a tiny bit in the direction we want by electing a single representative sympathetic to the issue we care about?" Bougie electoral stuff is so absurd, what people are expected to treat as a legitimate means to getting problems solved.
