It´s just a hunch for me, but conservatives have already given up on the whole civility thing which I have yet to experience a single liberal abandon. When people talk about their journey towards leftism, it´s either they used to be chuds or they were never sold on capitalism to begin with.

This is just anecdotal and based on my scewed experience. Anyone got something to add or refute?

    Big thing I find is also how much propoganda they subject themselves to. You wont radicalize anyone if they are die hard fans of Maddow or Tucker Carlson. They'll just get sheep dogged back into the fold when they can learn a talking point about any issue.

      Yeah it's important to push people onto communities and spaces where they will continue to receive a further collective education. This has been a big part of why I push people onto ANY leftist spaces. My interaction with a person does not exist in a vacuum, it exists on a timeline of many other interactions that other leftists will have with that person and we should be facilitating the occurrence of those further interactions.

      We must zoom out from our own interactions and consider them in the context of a whole. A liberal is not turned into a communist by one person, conversation or interaction. They are turned by a collective effort over a period of time.

      Disrupting the media bubble that they currently receive and replacing it with socialist media spaces is essential.
