    Your role is to convince and demonstrate a better world is possible.

    Literally the last 40 years of Reagan/Thatcherism. Convincing people that individualism is the path to happiness and self-actualization, then capitalizing on the insecurities alienation creates to perpetuate the system. Like dangling a carrot in front of a donkey to make it move forward.

    Neoliberals mastered the art of selling people a "better world" and now we're all chasing the dragon, looking for that next hit of feeling-successful.

    Leftists could learn from that. But they still have a sizable hurdle to overcome when neoliberal institutions have such overwhelming control of the capital necessary to propagate this message.

      The worst bit is that as the conservatives convince people, the right wing of labour are following what they think the people want so the whole country is slowly sliding down the fucking toilet
