Fair, though I still believe using "new" (Basic English was invented around 1925) concepts like Simple English today can help radicalize people, but other methods like reading groups are still important. I care about accessibility, including in tech, education, transportation, etc., and I believe supporting specialized languages designed to assist people is a net benefit to society.
Having a revolution in Amerikkka, the imperialist core where the unofficial religion is anti-communism, is going to be a unique challenge compared to previously colonized AES countries. I believe we will need to apply many methods--adapting to new technology, wielding it to our cause--to radicalize as many working class Americans as possible. Any contributions people are enabled to make are essential. If I have time someday, I would consider creating or editing Simple English articles, but I need to read more theory first.
