Most of those people are still Libs, they're just lazy Libs

which is why I said fully invested. if they aren't invested enough to vote, they are just default libs because they were born here, just like literally everyone else who was born here, you and me included.

They're default libs because it's in their material interest. That's not going to change, at least not for a little bit.

I agree generally that people in this country no matter their class background benefit enough from imperialism and the domestic slave colony to not put effort into their own political development. I do think however, after a decade of serious organizing, nearly all the best comrades I've ever met have more to gain from the status quo than they do by being communists. They devote their lives to it because it is right, and they have seen too much to go back. The average person does benefit but also agrees with every socialist policy and just thinks it isn't attainable because they have never been educated about politics beyond the default programming. Literally our jobs as communists to find those people and show them that they can change things and how.
