To defeat the state, we in the core of imperialism need to make U.S. hegemony too weakened for our ruling class to be able to use it to hold back revolution. And to cripple the beast by attacking it from within its heart, we need to take away the social base Washington depends on to be able to maintain its global war machine; that social base being the U.S. working class.
I used to disagree with this take, but I’m honestly kind of coming around to it; especially the more bald-faced the pleas for legitimacy from opps become. The minute we turn our eyes away, that’s when they’ll burrow their heads beneath the skin.
