It's important to understand that any argument against improving one's material conditions is going to be rightfully ignored. Better to point out that without removing the yoke of power, any concessions can be easily removed.

It isn't an argument against that, though. It's an argument that without Socialism and without anti-Imperialism, it heightens Imperialism and exploitation.
