Anyone that wants to build a leftist movement in the US and doesn’t think that radical political education needs to be at the center of it should not be trusted. No more “it’s not my job to educate you.” We need to educate everyone. We need people to be angry that they are being robbed.

That phrase had a purpose to protect Black people, primarily women, from having to do free labor. It wasn’t meant for wide-scale use. Education is the critical component we are missing. Educating, politicizing, base-building, power shifting.

None of this has anything to do with electoral cycles, IMO. I think electoral organizing can play a part in it, but this is all bigger than our current system.
