So let’s say, theoretically, to justify this possible hit to my circulatory health?

how am I supposed to organize if I have to rely entirely on agitating other labor aristocrat class traitors. I don’t think mass movements are possible that way?

You trojan horse it. Cloak it in disaster prep or grillpill or pubcrawl. You need to build social solidarity before you can start agitating for workplace solidarity. Just because people are in the Labor Aristocracy doesn’t mean they are immune to workplace problems. Lean on the persistent complaints, especially structural or managerial, as a wedge to build workplace solidarity. Again you can trojan horse things here as well, like parties or goofy rituals, that build an office culture that can be leveraged into solidarity. This is the Small Talk of building organizations; it looks useless but it builds the initial weak bonds that grow into strong bonds over time.

Well then, let’s hope it’s easier than small talk as an autistic person.

I would call it Simple, but not Easy. I had to teach myself small talk and really practice before I “got” it. I like to think of it like scaffolding; it’s not technically necessary, but it greatly helps you build what you want.

EDIT: It’s also about practice. Organizing a small office party will get you used to the logistics of getting people towards a goal. It’s also harmless, so any mistakes are easier to fix or ignore (not to mention stress), which serves the learning part of practice.
