If you're right and you aren't willing to actually communicate why, or worse, if you're right and you don't even understand why, you might as well be wrong.

If you're going to argue with people on the internet, and I know you are, either go full irony or actually take time to work out an argument that you know is going to be persuasive, none of this halvsies shit.

I was on the edge of becoming a leftist for like six months. That's literally how long it took for me to even be exposed to the idea that capitalism is bad for inherent and structural reasons, and not because of all the really obvious shit that liberals also disagree with but think can be reformed away.

    oh no, other people aren’t putting in the effort to sift trough information and organize it on my behalf. it must be their fault for even trying, not mine for being a lazy ignorant liberal who probably isn’t worth their scarce time and attention in the first place.

    This reads like "educate yourself" and is fundamentally going to hurt socialists. We can not blame other people who do not understand socialism for not seeking out that information for themselves. We must take that information to them and in a format that works. Yes, it is tiresome, but it is necessary.

    Sankara said it best.

        Didn't even read past the paragraph to get to the /s before responding! I probably sprung on it a bit quickly.
