Well, the first step is understanding that we need socialism and to end capitalism. We are already there, you and I! The next is understanding how revolutions actually work. Throughout all revolutionary history, one central through line is common: it is the great masses of society that actually make revolution. This means that class consciousness must grip the masses, and that these masses must be organized.

This is where we can and must be proactive. We can and must start with our own education, our own study of our existing conditions. We must also build up a disciplined group of workers that, through constant political work amongst the rest of the workers, gain their support and respect. When crisis hits, and it inevitably does on a regular basis in capitalism, we take the momentum of the working classes and use our own experience and study to help steer it in a positive direction.

This general process has unfolded in Russia, China, Cuba, and many other places. It's a proven strategy, one that we can rely on. We need to adapt to new surveillance, and the crackdown on speech, but revolutionaries have been in worse positions before. Over time, organizing has won more rights that cannot be as easily taken away. The intense concentration of wealth in the hands of fewer and fewer people only serves to bolster our ranks and further outnumber them.

In essense, it's the age-old adage:

EDUCATE!

AGITATE!

ORGANIZE!
