People feel powerless. Letting them know how fucked up our capitalist hell world is just makes them depressed and mad with you. “there’s no point caring about things you can’t change. All you’re doing is reminding me that everything is shit.”
So what do we do? How do talk about these things with people without destroying their hope? Do you just not talk about it? I don’t feel I’m ever helping anyone by dispelling imperial propaganda, it just makes them sad.
0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself sad. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov fucked him over personally with his socio-economic theory. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.
I kinda struggle with this problem myself but pointing how Bolsheviks went from absolute lowest point to the space in 40 years gives me hope.
