William Van Spronson had a long and productive life within the anarchist mileau of the U.S. long before before he decided to be a martyr. He went out and talked to people for a long time before he decided to take matters into his own hands.
I'm not saying 'just do x anyways'. I'm saying that telling other people that 'x is self-harm' when, for most leftist people, it's really not, is self-defeating, nihilistic and non-materialist.
Imo, communism isn't about being correct online, it's about theorizing and then building structures to supplant and combat capitalism. Cussing out people online is fine, it's just that if that is all you do you will form a warped perspective of 'people' because this is an awful Skinner box that is generally only reflective of the most anti-social aspects of humanity. Again, imo.
and i said that it feels like self-harm. you know, to me. because it does. But i'm sure you know my suffering better than I do. Putting myself in social situations that make me want to die is definitely going to meaningfully contribute to the revolution.
