After a year of genocide, I feel like there's no point in trying to convince these people. They are actively supporting the perpetrators of the genocide, and it's beyond Oct. 7 now -- there's no excuse for not knowing. There's a constant flow of evidence, yet these people remain purposefully ignorant. Or maybe they take pleasure in those pictures of dead babies. Take pleasure in the death of those 'barbarians' -- These people should be shamed. They shouldn't be allowed to take these evil positions without any backlash.

just take a break for now instead of stopping agitation altogether. when you pick back up again, try convincing different people or using different means. libs are maximally libbed up right now because of the US presidential election but that won't last. this time next week there will be more fertile ground, one way or the other. take heart comrade
That's more what I was trying to get at in my comment, haha. Theory and practice must meet each other, new knowledge must result in new theory. If something isn't working, adjust!
For me, I'm taking an extended break from Lemmy.ml and debatebroing .worlders. I am not abandoning explaining or agitizing, but trying to re-analyze where I went wrong in trying to convince others.
Sankara didn't live in the imperial core
do you think every inch of the golf course countries
count as the imperial core? deprivation is not hard to find.
Every inch? No.
Enough that it makes leftist organizing effectively useless in most of the major core nations effectively neutered? Yes.
