      Destroying which building? A building that facilitates taking the spoils of imperialism? A building that exploits poverty for the sake of shareholders, resulting in, by some estimates, 200,000 deaths every year? A building that enacts more violence than it would take to deatroy?

      Yes, definitely destroy it before it gets built. That’s hardly a question.

          You sarcastically suggested that communists are “destroying the building before anything can get built,” right? Maybe I misunderstood and the building is actually some nebulous “progressive movement,” rather than capitalism itself. In that case, sorry for misunderstanding, but it’s still a bad point IMO. Communists attacking social democracy as ineffective isn’t destroying the movement, it’s trying to push people towards more effective practice.
