Well done on actually going through it.

Makes me wonder how these people exist whenever I see this stuff, it's all the exact same drek every time, stuff that Marx himself repeatedly addressed, when it isn't just something completely made up and unrelated. They surely know that what they're saying doesn't actually make sense. They know it works on the hogs, but they must know that they are just lying about what Marx said. They obviously don't care, but I just can't imagine living like that, knowing what you're doing is just serving evil because they give you the crumbs as thanks for perpetuating their evil. Pro-capitalist propagandists like this are genuinely my most despised people in the world, it's one thing to be a capitalist, to be born into it, and there isn't really any of them can do to stop the system, they are beholden to its contradictions same as the working class. But working class traitors whose job is to perpetuate capital, to deceive people like this, I can't imagine a circle of hell deep enough.

    it's so unrelatable. I can't get into the mindset of a false witness who affirms obvious lies as a method of in-group signalling, it feels soulless and inhuman to me.

    Yeah, especially if they think their cause is "just" and they're allowed to lie to trick people into supporting it as a result. I've always tried to follow the truth, even when it has lead to unpleasant places, and that's why I'm a communist today. I can't imagine someone whose worldview is knowingly built on lies and they're fine with that, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I was like that.
