    I’m an anarcho syndicalist, I belive that we can build workers syndicates and communities where the workers own the means of production and only when we have those organisations we can even begin to think of overthrowing the state

      okay, simply put; the state is entirely controlled by capital. we live in a dictatorship of capital- this is a basically irrefutable fact for any sect of leftist.

      with that being said, let’s say you do start taking over workplaces, building communities around those workplaces which the workers took over; what is the state going to be doing while all of this happens? even if you take over by entirely ‘legitimate’ electoral and peaceful means.

      amazon workers can’t even go on strike without someone getting their skull cracked. you can’t demonstrate against genocide without being beaten half to death.

      what has the state done in the past when workers even went on strike?
