Yes, I understand. Fostering an environment where "reading theory" is the behavior of the in-group isn't too great. Examining the conditions of the working class right now (personally or not) and organizing/pushing them left doesn't actually require that much theory.
Implying anarchists tend to ignore reading and thinking (substituting theory for the aesthetic instead, I guess? praxis isn't even considered here) is not cool. Yeah, I know we're on the internet where posting is always revolutionary praxis.
Regarding memes: this is why I'm considering formally studying the left pipeline. A rough sketch of the right's pipeline has edgy personalities -> IDW -> ben shapiro -> TPUSA/PragerU -> actual fascism, and this pipeline is pretty solid and well-funded. We need to study the left pipeline and bolster it with propaganda. One easy way to do this is with memes.
If you're interested, I'm part of a group trying to do exactly that. Some folks in the group came up with the woorker/recrooter formats and the 4/20/69 work week poster. I have a hard time thinking this hard about memes but it seems to be the future, hit me up if you like
