YAYYY!!  I suspect that Louis has a fair idea of what's being said there,
but understands better that nobody truly desiring revolution should ever
express himself in language so absurdly beyond the average worker's grasp.
Not if that's to be the revolution's main actor and beneficiary.

There s/he is: bone-tired, under-educated, overworked, paranoid, harried
at home, systematically disinformed, feeling squeezed out, filled with
positively volcanic resentments and already helped along by a few glasses
of the traditional worker's sacrament.  This ain't Rethinking Marxism.
Good luck!
