K, this is the main reason I can't be a conventional socialist, they use words like this: Substitutionist. You all have more 'ists' and 'isms' than I have ever encountered before.
Nah, that's just me, I love my -isms and -ists.Substitutionist just means substituting the party/group for society as a whole, which is something to be avoided.The above is an example, where the task of emancipation becomes the preserve of a self-selecting clique of activists, rather than the working-class as a whole.
