I'm not sure if there is a "revolutionary potential" of the western proletariat -- much less, the left academics in the west of different strains (neo-Marxist, western Marxist, pomos, and all). There is too much talk, no action. Where is Marxist praxis? A revolution is going on today in the Philippines, which includes revolutionary talk and revolutionary action. Marx said: "All philosophers have hitherto described the world; the point is to change it." I'm sorry, I'm not convinced of the revolutionary potential of the proletariat in Australia, New Zealand, U.S., Canada, or Western Europe. There is revolutionary KINETIC in the Philippines now, today. A revolution is going on. The test of the pudding is in the eating.
