...and removed from reality if he doesn't believe that most walmart
employees are. for all intents and purposes, engaged in sit-down
strikes on their feet, while apparently working.

At least you'll never see one engaged in working to their full
time-studied potential... Not after the first month or two anyway.

I think mentioning an event like the Fisher Body Sit Down Strike (or
the Pullman rebellion) and comparing it to the "New Work Order" is
pitiful, and just goes to cement my belief that US marxists are
utterly irrelevant, with it's practitioners stuck in a time warp.

Oh, and "stuff" IS happening in the street. But you have to MAKE it
happen, without expecting a mass movement to worship your
organization's every footstep and proclamation.

Someone needs to get out more often...
