    It's important to remember that for each individual person, the road through disillusionment of the entire system is a long and arduous one. For many, it is a total reversal of the way they have always seen the world.

    Idk about the rest of you, but my path from advocate for capitalism to ML took years, and had lots of wonky pitstops along the way. From what I can see, the bulk of them are on a path that leads to us. Have patience, revolution isn't a year away and we all know that, so build our base. That means meeting people where they are, understanding why they are where they are, and addressing what you can. Let reality do the rest.

    EDIT: Also, the US had a chance to raise an entire next generation of finance bro capitalist advocates, and instead they multiplied the community's numbers by ten and actively turned them against the entire economic framework. Ayyyy lmao
