Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

I don’t see the problem of banners being tarnished nearly so much as the Right Wing...

I did not mean actually tarnished, I mean figuratively tarnished in the minds of a large group of people that are required to affect change.

At some point, people do need to understand that they control the means of production in a very literal sense.

Agreed, but I dont think you can begin to teach that lesson until the working class has solidified more, or you risk breaking momentum when one of them goes "Boy i swear i heard this from the radio man i let control my opinions as something i dont like"

I think you have a large deficit of trust

100% true. I've seen a majority of the country get swayed by the literal lowest common denominator of conman ive ever seen. I know the reason for this is because of the influence of the media and their own personal bubbles, but it does prove that they are incapable of forming their own opinions.

You, personally, can’t do anything about that

Yeah i know, so i just try to speak about the path forward that makes sense to me and hope it resonates with people.
