If you see us getting "a bourgeois imperialist labor party" out of the Democratic party somehow, you're welcome to it. I can't even pretend to know what it is without guessing, but I don't see us with another century to conjure the Bernsteins and Kautskys. And--stinking cynicial aside--working class politics haven't made a revolution here, but--when history permits it enough purchase--it has changed things. So it's not at all like electing Democrats. Or we could talk about the physics of all this. The massive gravity of Jupiter draws in comets and we've never really seen it spit them out. But here I am wasting time trying to talk sense. Of what use are such things to socialism in the age of Trump? Sure, maybe comets levitate right out of Jupiter when we're not looking. Maybe all that chanting to levitate the Pentagon worked but the Pentagon only decided to levitate in the middle of the night when nobody was around. So, based on the idea that anything might happen,let's rationalizing doing the one thing that we know has never ever worked.
