Comrade, it's not about believing or not. Revolutions happened in history before, multiple times, and they will happen again. However, our task is not about creating a revolution, but about creating organizations that can respond to revolutions when they occur, and which do their part on convincing people to rebel against the system, in other words, to create a revolutionary conscience.

The questions we need to ask are many:

• Can we understand the current needs of the people?
• Can we make the right assessment of our enemy strengths and weaknesses?
• Do we have a good apparatus to propagate and collect information?
• Do we have a funding structure that allows us to carry out our activities?
• Do we have a logistical structure that allow us to carry out our activities?
• Do we have the proper structure in place to help new members to join our org?
• Do we have a proper structure to help creating new cells in places we don't have a base?
• Do we have a proper and cohesive political line in place? With a concrete practical plan to achieve our objectives?

When conditions are such that revolution looks possible & an apparatus is in place with genuine proletarian support, including as much leadership as possible separate entirely from the bourgeois political class, then I would expect anyone here to be ready to help usher it forth. For now, the thing is to build ties.

Doomerism & faith are equally useless to us, I have to say. Just have to keep at it in all ways that we can.

If you care about your world, you will be constantly thinking of ways to build toward revolution & ways to protect the vulnerable around you from fascism as it festers. Simple as that.

If the world ends, you lost nothing. Might as well fight.

The conditions have to be ready for a revolution. If a revolution is too spontaneous revolution it would not work like what happened with Rosa Luxemburg and the German revolution of 1918–1919.

Educating and organizing the working class, so they can mobilize is how a revolution is done. If not enough of the working class is ready, the revolution will never work. Even though capitalism is collapsing, the people are not ready to accept socialism, they simply still want to find reforms to fix capitalism. Socialism will eventually happen, but it takes years of work and organizing to get it to that point.

Been a long time since the last one, I think. But I can't think of any other way to scrub these decaying governments before they cause climate change to kill us. Something is going to occur soon either way.

The time is always now to be fighting against exploitation. The question of revolution is more about whether a vanguard is capable of sustained confrontation. Waiting around for perfect conditions is a dead-end, but also, readiness alone can only go so far if the material is putting you at an extreme disadvantage. I don't think anybody really knows when the right time is, but interest in it will always be alive in one form or another as long as systemic exploitation is ongoing.

Or as Vijay Prashad put it: https://tankie.tube/w/nkDGzrTWyXAvXgc8cCRqef

Yeah we need to have a revolution as the goal but with the appropriate sense of priority of in what step we are in the road of revolution to care about the necessary basis for the revolution but without falling into a perpetual immobility that will never progress to revolution when the opportunity arrives
