    While I agree that a global revolutionary movement is needed, I think it’s important to focus on what’s actionable for you. Think global but act local. Organizing with people in your community helps to build a foundation on which a global revolutionary movement could one day launch from, and in the meantime it will improve your life and your community. Anything helps, so to decide on a direction you should consider what your community needs and what you are capable of. You could run for office, form a union, engage in direct action, or participate in mutual aid. It all counts for something.

      Agreed. One should never underestimate the impact of small actions. I would argue I do contribute in my own way.

      I was thinking about more about what a future global movement would look like.
