    liberals are never going to be your ally and set your aims at conspiracy theorists and other disillusioned people

    1. Most U.S. leftists are former libs (hell, plenty on here still are libs!).
    2. Some conspiracy theorists are well-informed and willing to rationally criticize existing power structures, but a lot are just cranks.
    3. Some disillusioned people will become political if you speak to their material conditions, but a lot just want to grill and aren't likely to start doing non-electoral action when they don't even vote.

    We should be putting at least some effort into appealing to everyone at this point (as we're small and no one knows how to build socialism in the imperial core), and it would definitely be a mistake to write off the majority of politically-active people in this country (libs).
