It sucks. We have been so thoroughly atomized through propaganda, trauma and attack that we have no real class consciousness. There is basically no organized left wing political movement, though there seems to be a (re)growing seed. Left leadership has traditionally be persecuted, assassinated or coopted. Unions have suffered all three and are now a shell of what they were once. Our political 'opposition' is liberals who fundamentally misdiagnose the problems and are scared of real (leftist) solutions.
