There’s no organizing potential in the USA at all. Everyone only thinks social democrats are the most radical option. Reddit third-worldists call me evil for being born here. I’m scum for being born in this country. I know it at this point, I’m evil for benefitting from imperialism, we’re all labor aristocrats, so why bother? I don’t even feel the strength to get out of bed anymore. I just want to lay here until I die or until I get evicted and die on the streets. I’m to scared to kill myself, so may as well. I’m just so tired of everything, of seeing the rights of my closest friends being peeled away and there being no viable way to stop it because, again, everyone here only thinks voting is the way out.

    I don’t think you are called evil by third worldists but your class interests don’t align with the working class from the third world. You do benefit somewhat from US imperialism.

    Now that your rights and standards of living are being eroded, it should be motivation to organise against some of that erosion.

      This can be the case somewhat depending on where you fall in the caste of the US, but it is not a simple, identical thing across the board.
