Nah, not about people being stupid. The propaganda apparatus is omnipresent and STRONG, it's been perfected over centuries, and it accompanies us from birth to death.
idk what to tell you. I was a dumb teenager, then when I hit my early 20s I started seeing everything from a zoomed out perspective (instead of working within a framework)
I thought about the job market and saw that either A) everyone gets equal B) the lowest tier gets pushed into homelessness and then prison forever and ever as long as it's gradual enough that everyone isn't unemployed all at once
Yeah I guess there's still time to grow up after you get out of your early twenties. Certainly hope so.
Of course there is, if someone develops class consciousness at 75 we should still take them into the fold.
I was a lib till at least 23 or 24, but I really don’t like the superiority thing I’ve seen of “well I was a communist when I was 16”. Its not a competition.
I was telling you to grow up.
