    radlibs who might be decent on Zionism

    They only became decent these last two years, due to popular pressure. Radlibs are social capitalist who chase after the next trendy and safe “prestige social cause”.

      Yeah but we do have to engage with them because you’re really describing the people who will always make up the bulk of any mass movement. We don’t really have the kind of education that produces loads of principled socialists with a holistic understanding of geopolitics, imperialism, and revolutionary strategy.

        Engage as to direct the masses away from such thought, not “put oneself on the same level” as radlibs. Radlibs are something that needs to be combated, exposed for their faults and their uselessness to the masses. Capitalist culture causes little capitalists to sit on every dinner table.

        Sure only a fraction will actually be the leadership of any communist revolution, which will possess the holistic understanding essential for a vanguard, however establishing such education is an indispensable component of every movement, and simply accommodating social capitalists with the equivalent of a natural phenomenon is erroneous.
