People are organizing for revolution right now. That's practical work, and is necessary. Voting does not do that. Neither does random assassination. Simple as that.

"That’s practical work, and is necessary" 100% agree. Now let's say a natural disaster wipes one of the organizations out. Would any of their current actions have moved the revolutionary movement further? Or would it have disappeared along with the group? If their actions have moved the revolutionary work movement forward even if they stop existing right now, please point me to a specific instance. That's all I'm saying.

I'm saying these hypotheticals do not have a point beyond a semantic one.

[-] someoneelse@lemmy.ml 0 points 11 hours ago

In that case the whole discussion from the beginning is semantic, so that's all what the discussion has been about.
