And I, on my newbie Communist brain, cannot come up with any ways of defeating capital ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I'm not an accelerationist, because that's asking for bad outcomes, but capitalism eventually always undermines itself. That's one of our few ways to wriggle out from under it's thumb. It's about striking when the iron is hot. We're nearly there, a lot of people are pissed off with the status quo, and they're looking for someone to save them from it, but most of them are too uneducated to know who to trust when media is full of lies.

Some of it comes down to theory and communicating that theory, some of it comes down to human psychology and how to open minds to that theory.
