I'm guessing you are asking this from a US perspective.

The Practical Policy of Revolutionary Defeatism

First: Get yourself organised. Action without organisation is either liberalism, anarchism or adventurism. Join the FRSO or the PSL.

Second: your organisation should organise against the war by agitating against the state itself and for peace, but also by hampering the capabilities for continued war, through strikes, protests, road blockages and whatever else is an acceptable method for your organisation.

Third: Survive yourself but also help others survive. Whatever was the US engages in now, there'll be a severe economic impact due to deindustrialization. Your organisation should act to help those most in need, which serves a double function of cementing which side the communists are on (the proletariat) against the interests of the parties with state control.

As a side note, it honestly confuses me how much I need to remind people on a Marxist-Leninist forum that getting organised is the first step. I don't know if this is a cultural US liberal thing of thinking oneself too unique for a movement or too good for a middling party, but that's what it seems like. I'd understand if the complaint was "I don't have time for militancy" but it's usually just "the parties are bad" like a good party is just going to spontaneously manifest itself.

crimes, as soon as times get hard in the home country i'm resorting to crimes. organized crimes, random crime, union adjacent political crimes, whatever. fuck fighting for the imperial machine and fuck dying due to austerity. i'm straight crime'ing it.

I'm personally going to evaporate.

We need to organize better. There is a lack of militant groups that aren't just straight up fascists.

How to build up an organization, idk, that is the hard part. I feel like the most compelling thing you can ask someone is what would they do if shit really went down? Police won't protect you. Your company won't protect you. Your friend group or family is probably too small or weak.

Maybe its possible to sway left wing groups to be more militant and armed?

At least shit really hasn't hit the fan yet that we can still organize.

Don't be dragged into the conflict. Find safer spots.

Hope you live someplace that's not a military or infrastructural target cause WWW3 will just be nuclear Armageddon. The US got nothing to combat China with outside of a 10 to 1 nuclear warhead ratio.

Agitate. It's always the answer. Western nations need a serious injection of class consciousness. Using anti war sentiments as a starting point for agitation will become much easier (though more dangerous) when the war goes hot.

If actual war pops off there isn't anything you can do. It'll go nuclear almost instantly. Link up with people now, deescalate as much as you can, because there isn't any god damn other option.

Also before anyone mentions the existing parties ya i know about them. They arent exactly the militant resistance id like to see tho.

Shoot every imperialist on sight, this stands for every nazi, racist etc.

Probably become a Shahed in the upcoming second liberation struggle of South Africa from the invading ameriKKKan hordes.

Here's a message from Joe Slovo

probably die... but otherwise do what every anti war movement has done for the last century.

if you're american, enlist and sabotage the army
