We do understand capitalism. How do we dismantle it?
Unions, and we've seen a lot of successes these past few years.
That's a matter of some debate... ๐
For my part, I'd say direct action and prefiguration of new institutions are good places to start. We of course need to educate people in various ways - in addition to direct action and prefiguration, which are educational in their own right. I also think we need to engage with art and culture to build consciousness and expand popular imagination of what's possible.
People's War until Communism.
Hahaha. You've probably never heard of The USSR or any other country which has the word "democratic" in its title.
Wars are older than capitalism.
