"One wins the civil war by building communism" There it is. That's my ideology.

Søren's book (along with some others) has convinced me that the "transition" to communism begins long before the conquest of state power. I think it will begin in the process of reproducing labor power. That is the sphere that unites workers on the same sinking boat, as opposed to the mad scramble of competition on the market for employment.
