Link to twitter thread here.

So today’s been a real stressful day since Eid is tomorrow (technically today its AM right now) and I have an essay due the day after aswell as exams in the few days.

I am stressing the hell out on how I can make a coherent argument in my essay dealing with world-systems theory, eurocentrism and use of “networks” and flows in viewing the history of globalisation but reading the twitter thread made me realise,

even if I fail at writing anything coherent it will never be as embarassing as any takes anarchist twitter has 💀

    Anarchists stress me out so much bc their lack of understanding of the value of being able to read is so dangerous and a total insult to many people in poverty caused by colonialism. They don’t care. They don’t care about how little they care about people in poverty who want better lives, instead they tell them that wanting better for themselves is the same as the horrors of colonialism. It’s not even stupidity, it’s stubbornness to admit they are wrong and don’t know anything. I’ve sworn off interacting w anarchists online for a reason. They’re too stubborn for me

      Virtually all anarchists I’ve come across online act like this. They are completely clueless.

      Before becoming a ML, I briefly considered myself an anarchist. I had read no theory and communism as a concept has been totally poisoned in the west. I listened to a couple podcasts about the basics of Marxism and pretty much instantly realized it’s the only alternative to capitalism.

    Anarchism and masturbation. All anarchist do is jerk off. It pleasures only them. Do what you want in your basement. But they won’t do that. They jerk off in the public in day light. It is creepy and disgusting to most people.( There will be some who enjoy that). It never stop there, these creep ejaculate on successful revolution, real world solutions to the world’s problems.

    They just reached a new level of idiocy, before it was “some people cant read because of disabilities so don’t ask everyone to read Lenin!” which, valid, listen to audio books, now they actively want people to NOT to read. It cant hurt, if you don’t have a disability which prevents you from reading, gain literacy, it REALLY cant hurt and it will only make you more knowledgeable. With knowledge comes being smarter than this person. (and now I realize I’m talking to no one since this is typed out.) But like seriously though, writing is one of the best human inventions, don’t let the Phoenicians down.

    “Friendly reminder” is always a good way to start something if you want to trigger a violent Pavlovian response in me where I want to slam my head into concrete

    Reading and writing are advanced forms of communication. It is Communication that is 1) asynchronous: the listener doesn’t have to listen at the same time the speaker speaks. Written communications have survived millenias. 2) does not have to be memorized in the human mind. It can always be referred back to rather than burdening our brains with remembering it.

    This greatly enhances the potential audience the communication can reach. It allows for the communication to be repeated (read multiple times). It allows it to be delivered with high accuracy (rather than relying on memory and passing down through generations). It gives the author confidence in communicating bigger and longer ideas.

    This is why literacy was something the ruling class kept away from people for many centuries. Illiteracy was a tool of subjugation. Knowledge is power.
