Tbh that’s better than I expected. 2% with basically no organization (and what we do have started from zero not long ago) in the heart of the imperial core while - relatively speaking - times have been good for decades now. Learning about the humble beginnings of the Bolsheviks, the CPC, the dozens of communists who started the Cuban revolution… it encourages me to know you can start with a small base and grow massively when the conditions allow.
