like it feels like the only way out of this spiral into mass servile proud illiteracy in the imperial core is that, for the third qualifier, ego injury might push people into learning out of spite. I don’t know. What can you even say to people who don’t understand how to parse what you are saying, and then get mad at you about it?

Am I overreacting? Is this too blackpilled? It genuinely seems like this is a very dark potent, especially at this nexus of heightened contradictions

    The random people ive talked to leafletting on one of the big avenues have been far, far more receptive than the supposedly literate, intellectual students at my university tbh

    The guy most supportive of leaving nato ive talked to was this homeless guy who had some weird ideas about the population of china (and the world) and effects of nuclear war, but also told me and the comrade i was with that NATO was an aggressive alliance trying to start ww3. He was very receptive to the party’s position of “leave nato, cut military spending, build houses”

    At university is where we get all the “communism = 1984 no food free stuff is against human nature” takes and demands to debate abc historical event or xyz theoretical issue
