"My point about organizing third parties is that this is important, but it is not the only thing that needs to be done, and not the only thing that everyone should be doing.
If you want to assert that, then we do indeed have a disagreement, but I don't think you do."
I'm not saying that exactly, but I'll come very close: if everyone tomorrow were to drop their "issue based" activism and devote their time to organizing a progressive political party, the left would be far more effective than it is today, for reasons I attempt to identify in the piece.
I do think we have a disagreement-but I recognize that i am in the minority on this.
Best,
