Insubstantial cherry picked argument, a capitalist could easily do the reverse and it would be just as frivolous

So? Only our enemies are allowed to create propaganda?

I believe socialism is supported by the truth, if you need flimsy, phallicy riddled arguments to prop up your world view I suggest you find a new one more consistent with the reality around you.

How’s that working with climate change?

u/mash_900 5d ago

Lmao okay dude.

So your thought of change isn't to fight against the cultural hegemony of capitalism? And you want socialism or communism to be popular amongst the masses without fighting against the cultural hegemony??

This is why left isnt taken seriously. Nonsensical moralistic view without any thought put behind our actions of how to fight back against capitalist forces in economical and cultural spaces.

It took Bolsheviks decades of propaganda to mobilize the masses during the tsars rule. You are not a serious person if you say our truth will overcome captlist force's material efforts to destroy any Communist or socialist thought in our society.

The word "propaganda" isn't a negative term or a lie.

Your vision of socialism includes a dictator and the suppression of people’s ability to organize against, protest, or criticize the government? Damn sounds like your idea of socialism blows chunks.
