YFIS Discussion Board is a dead place

[sameera]

This political forum is a dead place. No political discussion taking place. Comrades, the predominantly young, should not waste time here. Look at what is happening around the world. We've come to an era of mass uprisings and revolutions. The young should note them, they should understand them, they should draw lessons from them to prepare themselves when the revolutionary uprising take place in their own region and to take up the lead.

What this forum can provide for that. Not that it was providing anything even earlier. Comrades, since the young and inexperienced cannot be categorized along with the forum owners, you should seriously consider reading the history of Fourth International and History of Russian Revolution (Trotsky's book). The history of FI provides a telling indictment of the Pabloist crimes and that should not given another chance in this era.

I completely agree. Why are you so calm? If this is not a time and a place for great discussions, when and where should we then talk about our ideas and possibilities? The world has never been that chaotic since World War II.

I noticed many people have been coming here just to annoy others. Nobody has said anything constructive for a long time.

Well. Let's not get carried ahead of ourselves. This place used to be a vibrant forum of discussion amongst ideologies. I know. I used to be the resident anarchist. The old members on this forum set me straight.

But alas. It is sadly dead. The members who kept this forum interesting moved on. I only briefly check in time to time, myself.

The only party who carryout a consistent struggle for socialism is Socialist Equality Party. Read WSWS - http://www.wsws.org and read carefully the consistency and also I'm pretty sure you'll realize what they said all this time is right.

And mind you its far from annoying. A political fight is a political fight. Things should be called by their real names. We're fighting for socialism not for anything less. The fight is difficult, the most difficult thing as it is the fight against the dominant ruling class. We don't fight to get something from them, we fight for state power, the very thing they are based on.

It is far from truth if one claims there's no place. Plan yourself to attend  2011 Conference: The Fight for Socialism Today - http://www.fightforsocialism.org/ if you're living in United States. The perspective for socialist revolution cannot make mistakes and you cannot do it having this or that thing right. Such things are nothing but opportunist tendencies.

What I did was studying the WSWS analysis. I would ask the same thing from you.

There are many ways of reviving this forum - it has so much potential ...just not enough exposure.
