organization of rev/( was eco-optimism)

struggle of the opposites of "all power to all the people as a whole"
and , yet,the need for leadership and unity especially when the
struggle takes on a military or paramilitary structure. Actually, the
first era of trying to build socialism teaches that the bourgeoisie
are able to force the working class to take up militarized structure
in order to survive.  The riddle of organizational form for the
working class' struggle must be solved, but posing the issue as "how
democratic centralism" has not be exceeded or gotten beyond.
Vanguardism has not been proven more of failure than non-vanguardism,
which amounted to almost donothingism,  critcism  from the sidelines.
=========
Well we need to out jujitsu them on "forcing" the military structure;
we become like them in that very act. There's a big zone between
do-nothingism and vanguardism that we need to explore and learn how to
navigate. The sheer amount of weapons floating around in the world
today presents us with different kinds of challenges on this issue,
imo.
