In no way am I suggesting any of what you are suggesting and taking a lighter "more palatable" path to a socialist revolution. But many people cannot engage due to their material conditions and part of our work in agitating, educating, and organizing people is using the power we gain along the way to improve the conditions so we can repeat that cycle with more people in society at large.

    Ah, I see now what you mean by "enables". You're suggesting that people are struggling so much that they can't afford to be politically active.

    Correct. Many people are struggling to even makes ends meet and don't have the capacity to be politically involved even if they want to be. They are working several jobs, raising a family, etc etc.
