Dude straight up reached under the superstructure and pulled it up to show the ocean of resentment and righteous malice working class people have for the elites

The collective mind is willing, but the body politic is drowned by the old reactions and false consciousness

    1000% agree. as sartre famously said, “anti-semitism is the anti-capitalism of fools.” as leftists we can interpret this either as 1) rightists are fools and totally unsalvageable or 2) rightists have a solid grasp of the problem and we just need to get them to understand that our proposed solutions to it are better than theirs

    obviously some (or even most) rightists are too far down the rabbit hole, but there are definitely those who aren’t really that committed to it and therefore can be won over. especially if we get some more hyper-competent propaganda of the deed
