The temptation to (rightfully) call my family reactionaries is strong
Every time…
*Bangs chancla on dinner table* ¡El problema es el capitalismo!
Y quien no lea a Lenin, es un ignorante
It’s an actual strategy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salting_(union_organizing)
also me at dinner: Hey wanna see my impression of uncle Jeff?
i can only imagine how much it would suck to actually be there listening to lenin, him just yelling shit, me unable to hear more than one in five words, also i don’t speak russian
Normalize saying “it’s either socialism or barbarism” in casual conversation.
A lot of people don’t know what communism actually is, they just know it’s bad. I havn’t tried it but you could probably trick people into agreeing with communism if you just explained communism without mentioning communism. What if we just built a society where people take as they need and work as they can?
The problem with that is that people aren’t stupid, they just license themselves to going along with anti-communism, so when you’re caught out you’ve alienated people. That’s why revolutionaries should strive for honesty and transparency, rather than subterfuge and deception.
I mean yeah your right.
What do you think is the best way to open peoples eyes up to socialism and communism as a viable alternative to capitalism, or at least have them consider it?
Focus on the people that are radicalized but uneducated on theory. It’s largely futile to convince those that benefit from the status quo, but for those that are actively seeking answers they come readily to communism.
Telling my parents about Rat Park in the guise of a casual anecdote about an interesting experiment to lay the groundwork for “Hey maybe all these people’s individual struggles stem from a shared environmental source.”
Every time.
i dont like making things political but its so easy to get swept up in the discussion 😅 gotta love being hyperimpulsive
I think you forgot to censor Trotsky in the image.
He exists, even if he’s wrong 🤷
If the problem with Trotsky were only his words, he wouldn’t have suffered trepanation. Trotsky was attempting a coup.
