: Excuse me?!
OK so I was flip...sorry. My interpretation (mis-interpretation) of: "you make the revolution for yourself" was a call for personal transformation and as such seemed to be a put-down of the the original post (concern for social transformation).

Yes.

: People who dont see injustice, even that carried out in their name or to others, as having any implication to them regardless of ideology, party, nation or imagined cause are going to approximate to ideology etc. because of stupid things like the wish to lose your identity in a herd and be lead.
Yup.

Sorry...it's not obvious to me.
It's hard to discuss this without knowing the original poster's frame of mind which you seem to have placed in the 'sheeple' catagory. You personally may be 'enlightened' through 'individual' effort. If that is your sole "cause" "goal" or "aim", then socialism may be quite irrelevant.
(unless you decide that socialism would best enable this self-transformation - in which case you might feel the need for collective effort - sometimes located in a political party)
