    It’s so wild that these people just don’t even have the basest line of understanding what communism is. Or capitalism for that matter. Or any political theory really.

        It is frustrating that even in Canada we didn’t learn the proper definitions of any of these things.

      they learned quite well that anything that is ostensibly bad for you is communism, therefore this must be communism. that’s all you ever need to know about politics

        Yeah I know. But it’s so fucking depressing. Like you will never get through to these people in a million years. Like wtf do we even do?

      The fun hobby is explaining Marxist theory to anti-communists, just avoiding all the buzzwords, and see how much you can get them to agree with.

        Prager U tried to assuage that somewhat by getting their lackeys to tell conservatives that the word working class is a dog whistle for communist stuff.

        Which it is, but a lot of them pick that up when I do this.
