    The revolution does not occur in a vacuum. How will you acquire weapons, how will you occupy an area, how will you feed yourself, where will you live, how will you communicate with others, what happens if core members get caught, how will you sniff out reactionaries, how will you explain your goals to the people, the list of questions to answer goes on.

    What it means for Marxists to organize is to create a group of revolutionaries that can answer these questions. Strikes are just one way to make your voice heard, nothing is guaranteed.

    Bro, we talked about this. Think of organization of people like organizing a workspace or document. It makes it easier to get stuff done. Think of “an organization” as in a charity or group for self governance. Organization for communism means bringing people together, directing resources to provide for them, and using mass mobilization to win power. The goal is to create a government in waiting like the Soviets that can take over.

    Unionise, strikes, mutual aid, and other forms of collective action that leverage the power of a group of people to their benefit.

    Fights though? Where did you get that from?
