    I agree with most, except organising continentally. The point of organising continentally is psychological. One has more affinity with one's social identity group, with whom you can relate (in the sense "that could be me"). This means that if a factory collapses in Bangladesh resulting in 1,000 deaths receives less attention than 3 deaths due to a bombing in Boston. It also means that a socialist revolution in Greece will be more influential in the rest of Europe than in, say, Zambia or West Bengal.
    Thus, transnational (scale) internationalism (content) may be more effective due to this psychology.

    “How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?” Charles Bukowski, Factotum
    "In our glorious fight for civil rights, we must guard against being fooled by false slogans, as 'right-to-work.' It provides no 'rights' and no 'works.' Its purpose is to destroy labor unions and the freedom of collective bargaining... We demand this fraud be stopped." MLK
