Organizations are primarily, unavoidably, preoccupied with their own perpetuation. This automatically ties them to the power structure. They need funding, this inevitably puts them in a weak position vis-à-vis the elites; they need to prove their credibility by means of their ability to manage, which means to limit, the social movements that created them. They become institutions that mediate between the power structure and the people, which means, of course, that they are no longer revolutionary by definition.
