Maybe @Cowbee@lemmygrad.ml could help here, but I personally wouldn’t waste my time trying to reason with anticommunists. It would be better to focus on furthering your own education or that of a novice communist. I’ve tried to help anticommunists before and it’s like pulling teeth.

    I like focusing on progressive liberals, those on the cusp of radicalization but trapped by liberal cultural hegemony, in addition to novice communists. I still have a long way to go on my ML journey and consider myself a novice too, which I think helps me engage with liberals.

    But you are already better than the liberal experts that spend their entire lives propagating racist remixes of colonial-era propaganda and the conservatives who are even less subtle about it. You should give yourself more credit, dust rabbit (that is what your profile picture looks like) comrade!

    Thanks, I appreciate it! I mean no false humility, I am aware that I have put forth a great deal of effort so far. However, I also know that there is a long way to go forward with Marxism-Leninism than I presently know. I haven't even read volume III of Capital, which sounds like a humble brag until you learn just how much of Marxist discourse is built on theories of crisis found in volume III.

    Also, the pfp is actually a dog, with wind in its face!

    As a fellow student of Marxism-Leninism, I concur that we both have a long way to go in order to understand Marxism-Leninism so that we can help the proletariat liberate themselves from capitalist chains! Also I have not read that either lol (I already have enough on my plate), but I do want to read more because I have gotten back into reading Marxist texts (and non-Marxist ones like Bordiga).

    Oh, I really did think it was a rabbit made of dust, but the wind dog makes more sense (I only see your profile picture as a small red square with some animal in it that looks like a dust rabbit, so that is why I called you a dust rabbit comrade). I will still think of it as a dust rabbit though!
