    Social Democrats will always cater to Liberals, because they both rest on the foundations of Capitalism. Social Democrats aren’t trying to disrupt the system, but prod it towards more safety nets. Even if they raised successors, they would face the same struggles, because the DNC can’t support itself without the blessing and support of the Bourgeoisie as their donors.

    A truly destabilizing movement comes from outside the boundaries of the normal electoral system and depends on real, actual Worker Organization. That’s why it’s helpful to read theory. I wrote an introductory reading list for Marxism if that appeals to you or anyone else.
