Hugo Doré
I am a simple worker, militant and member of the Revolutionary Communist Party; canadian section of the Revolutionary Communist International (previous International Marxist Tendency) although I am only representing myself here. I found out about this network after watching an interview with Ferdia O’Driscoll and couldn’t agree more with him that despite our tradition to affirm that predicting with precision what post-capitalism/socialism/communism would look like is either idealistic or utopian since these decisions would depend on the material conditions and future democratically taken decisions, I still strongly believe that deeper reflexions and discussions are essential. Although I believe that a revolution is inevitable and necessary, I can’t help but think that a radical change is obviously scary and therefore in order to be able to convince and rally the most people and be prepared for these huge tasks ahead, me must be able to make it attractive and engaging so we can truly unleash our collective potential in a strong, trustful and unifying way. I am so glad, thankful and excited to find here a space for a materialist approach to build hope.
