      I mean the logic isn’t entirely wrong… though at least familiarize with snippits. I mean I don’t have to read Mein Kamph to say Naziism is evil.

      Of course, there is a huge difference, even in snippits and small amounts of information it’s quite clear that all nazi followers, support racism.

      While modern marxists do not call for violence etc… and specifically is calling for changing of things that, are not physical traits that require bloodshed.

    It also happens in reverse, you frequently find liberal “Marxists” that make claims about Marx that aren’t true, for instance calling Marx an Anarchist when in reality Marxism is about centralization rather than Decentralization, yet make these claims based on an understanding of Marx found through Wikipedia introductions and Vaush videos.

    “Read theory” is a half-meme because it would fix a bunch of problems with the Western Left in particular.
