The corporations are going to move to remove all left-wing content, it's best we begin changing strategy. Popular social medias need to be a secondary relation, not a primary.
Share everywhere, let’s begin building a new way to use the internet
I agree. That’s basically how I and other leftists came in to the fold. First is some Sanders-style Democratic Socialism which mostly focuses on the problems of capitalism and raising class consciousness, then came the study of how these problems are part of capitalism’s innate quality, then socialism could fix these problems, but then you run into the old propaganda against it (it sounds good, but it would never woke in theory, every state it’s tried hasn’t worked, etc). That’s when you can focus on raising the consequences of imperialism and the good parts of those old states.
A lot of people are stuck between those first couple steps, knowing there’s an issue with today’s society and hating billionaires, but aren’t ready to believe socialism can fix it because they have been trained to reflexively hate it. Many also don’t believe these problems are intrinsic to capitalism, that it can still be saved, that our current period is an aberration of capitalism, and not inevitable for the system, and such. The nice period of the boom cycles, like the 50’s or the 90’s of their youth, are clearly the normal part of capitalism and the bust cycles are just the result of mismanagement. From this average frame of understanding coming from a lifetime of being raised in propaganda, you need to start with pretty base theory, not advanced stuff like navigating the complex legacies of Stalin or Mao, or even the Russia-Ukraine war (imo).
Not only that but we need to relate to the people’s immediate material concerns, that’s when our propaganda is at its strongest and liberal propaganda at its weakest. We need to remember that the strength of Marxism is that it can explain why things are so bad like no other ideology can.
Liberal economics is little more than gaslighting and lionizing that attempt to shift blame and responsibility on the average person and pretend that the system isn’t broken, only mismanaged, meanwhile fascism is the laziest of victim blaming imaginable and such an ideological void that they have to tokenize leftist terminology to trick peoples into getting on board, only Marxism has an analysis of capitalism that makes sense with the average worker’s lived experience.
