I can't start a socialist party. There has to be some sort of mass mobilization.

Doyle;
Agreed. And further, parties have evolved over time. The sort of mass mobilization that happened in Russia, or China, can't happen in a like manner in the U.S. or other developed countries. The technology add ons shift how people connect. Why have mass demonstrations in the streets where a crowd is pointed at one single spot on the avenue to hear a list of speakers? Why not just have podcasts, and videos of speakers from any location?

Or why not use cellphones to bind people together in ways that are visually invisible? So that crowd control for the police is made much more difficult, but the crowd is doing mass things as well?
thanks,
Doyle Saylor
