Theory Recommendation Request - A lot of liberals/Dems in my life are facing crises of political consciousness watching the police collaborate with the protestors to attack "a sacred symbol of American democracy." This is a fantastic chance to move them left, but I'm hesitant to recommend anything that's too heavy.
What are some good entry-level works that are accessible to people that think the West Wing and Jon Ossoff are unironically good? Keep in mind things like S&R are disqualified because Lenin is pretty stigmatized in their brains. Need something more vanilla/unknown.
Thanks for the reply. Innuendo Studios is great as its pretty tame and extremely reasonable. Will start there.
And I’m back.
Innuendo is good. Renegade has similar vibes but a bit dry so depends on the person
It pains me to say this but philosophy tube can be good for younger people or people who’d be interested in his theater kid vibes. He does a good job of sneaking in radical language without being over the top like “and that’s whether your a Marxist... or not that cool yet smile” shit like that
Mexie is pretty good too and presents some pretty radical stuff sometimes but never comes across as too hostile.
A really good one would be some more news, with Cody Johnston. His always very critical and on point on the dems. If they liked Jon Stewart or the daily show it’s a good rec.
I saw some people recommending black shirts, I definitely think that book is required reading but if someone is fully lib brained idk if it’s the first book I’d reach for as, IMO, a lot of the messages may meet resistance in their propagandized brains. That’s why i suggested something like inventing realities which will soften them up to accept more anti-establishment views/truths
People should also read settlers. Idk if it’s the first book I’d go for but it’s nice to have in mind.
And then just try sending various memes to people. They really can help a bit over a period of time, start to legitimize ideas and alternative points of views.
