      So, around the early 70s, LaRouche's National Caucus of Labor Committees decided it needed to establish 'hegemony', right? But they didn't really have a coherent theoretical base to work off of, so their conception of 'hegemony' was going around New York City and crashing meetings of other communist organizations in order to beat up their members with nunchucks

      It's literally partly theie fault I am one now. If it didn't seem like the teachers I liked the least seemed to hate it the most, I probably wouldn't have looked into it as open minded as early as I did.

        When i learned the Nazis killed anarchists and communists first, i thought there may be something worthwhile there.

          It's fun to point this out to liberals and watch them try to square that circle with their professed opposition to Nazism

    So, that's a huge W for us. You know what I was as a kid? Contrarian as hell towards any view my teachers had even if retrospectively they were correct. The first exposure to looking into communism on my own was reading the manifesto in 8th grade to figure out what my weirdo social studies teacher was so riled up about. There is no USSR boogeyman that you can say is constantly threatening global Armageddon in any way that feels realistic anymore as well. Y'all won the Cold War and are scared enough of communism still to push this? Kids thrive on adult fear. Plus there's like, way more communism online now than before, you want a cultural revolution in 15 years? Here's how you get one you absolute dolts. They'd be better off just not bringing it up as an option. Global warming really sucks, cause if that wasn't a time bomb on the table I'd be very confident that we could tip over capitalism like Homer Simpson pushing over a tired boxer in a few decades if climate fascism wasn't pretty much a guarantee
