"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

I don't agree with everything written here, but I think this is a decent critique of what's happening under Liberalism Oscar Wilde 1891
That pretty much sums up liberalism, what it does, how it carries out it's evils while pretending to be good and how imo. we desperately need healthy Individualism. But I am struggling to figure out how to pitch this. Right now I'm trying the approach of: "I see you're trying to rescue people here, that's awesome that you care, but we really need to do something about what's causing it."
But people are so propagandized they don't listen to me. I'm talking about building power locally and then we can use it to assist other causes, but they don't want to build power. They keep on relying on private industry and show no interest to work with me to build an alternative. Shit's so bleak, but I'll try to figure out something.
I tried to convince a person I know is a liberal today that like, changing the "current regime" in the Whitehouse will not stop what is happening and that this shits not gonna just get better and there no "weathering this crazy phase."
And it basically made me realize that.... We're doomed. These fucking people. They will just pretend like everything is fine until they are being shoved into an incinerator. They really just cannot fathom that things won't just "be ok." It honestly was part of what spawned my entire rant here.... I just.... How? How can people be so god damn delusional? I am actually going insane. I can feel my mental faculties snapping a little bit more every time I interact with them.
