I follow your point though in addition to Solidarity, CCDS and other similar groups there are more individuals than one might at times think who are sympathetic to much of what I imagine most socialists to desire. There will be ebbs and flows and a few hundred years of capitalism isnt eternity, whether we live to see something radically different or not (which would be nice).
In any event, I sympathise with you and do think a nice trip to Italy and some Italian social centers might raise your spirits in the meantime...
