I feel like there's this hugely unexplored opportunity in the gap between communist/anarchists and soc dems. It's all very "pie in the sky" and so you get the portland freaks with their communes and dumpsters and then the technocrat professors writing white paper and staffing DSA campaigns.

But its all very marginal to the "serious people". And yet within the Socialist Opportunity Gap there's so much raw good that people would love (starting with stuff many other countries have) and modern states have never even dreamed of having but are totally reasonable.

I mean, we are such a rich country. We have *so* many talented people and resources. Imagine a state uncaptured by oligarchy, unfettered by poverty. Imagine investment in research 100x previous levels. Sectoral bargaining with workers on each corporate board.
