Perhaps it's in the nature of an American civic culture steeped in the fetish for advertising labels, but it's worth remembering that a formation that does not call itself working class is not necessarily a capitalist party. Or that a self-designation as socialist in a society that hasn't much of a clue as to what that means doesn't necessarily mean anything.
This whole thing was a top-down operation. Did anyone seriously expect a different outcome? there are so many other questions that have greater importance. How many people "attended"? What were they thinking? And what are they doing? And why didn't all the teensy grouplings with class politics not initiate such a conference as a prelude ot a united front of their own? Which they could have done in any election for the last however-many years. That orchestrated boom for Biden seems to have been sputtering out at this point. And the campaign's solution has been to distance itself from the "violence" of "protesters" in the streets. Its every effort is to get people to have their input as the authorities designate. At the ballot box. Or virtually at the ballot box. There's so much that could be done--and should be done--in response . . . . -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
