    I think you need to do more research and come up with logical arguments for these beliefs that aren’t just vibes, but empirical data and observations.

      Im not a historian, nor revolutionist, and i have the benefit of just shitting on your assertions. But i am your target audience. And i still dont know how you are going to convince me to read a stack of history books or pick up an AK.

      My self interest will probably just make me want to fight for the system as long as i can instead of enduring hardship. Anyways nice talking to you.

        And this takes me back to what I said previously, if Marxism is indeed correct, then as material conditions deteriorate due to sharpening of contradictions in Capitalism, then there will likely be a point in the future that you become more willing to read theory, and I’ll be right here.

        You aren’t actually my target audience. My target audience is made up of people already radicalized by this deterioration of Capitalism, but this doesn’t affect everyone equally. If you are not radicalized, then it is likely that you’re not radicalized yet, at which point you will enter my target audience.

          If it is indeed correct, indeed. Hopefully we all get equality in paradise in the end.

            We will likely not see Communism, but we will be a part of the numerous water droplets that cumulatively bore through stone.
