Removal of all benefits of civilization to… own the libs?
Has it ever not been?
LoL, I thought he was promoting communism. 😅
OP is.
Weren’t attitudes like this literally why Lenin thought that Communism had to be forced on a society for a few generations for the least educated to “understand” Communism? Since there was no breaking through their preconceived notions? Because there’s literally no reaching these people?

Yes…it’s a dumb comment…but it’s kind of interesting too. Are we seeing the rise of the Right in the US because short form video became popular?
The us has always been right wing.
Short answer: No.
Long answer: no, but there is some correlation between the average attention span dropping, people enjoying short form videos, and a lack of a mind for nuance which is exploited by right wing propagandists and populists, causing a rise in right wing or even far right authoritarian politicians being elected across the world. I’m not nearly educated enough in the field to make any causation claims though (edit: except the one about propaganda exploiting a lack of nuance which causes those far right politicians to be elected, that one doesn’t need a whole lot of expertise to confirm).
Also the US has always been a country of two conservative parties, which could have something to do with more people being susceptible to right wing propaganda
How is this a meme?
an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, often with slight variations.
an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.
Look, I’m just as communist as the next guy on Lemmy but I don’t get how this is funny or an imitable element of culture. This is literally just your opinion.
No, this is the opinion of Andrzej Kozlowski. And it is funny.
Do you people actually know what a fucking meme is?
This sub is just tankie pictures. FML, shitty reddit client might be worth it.
Seriously, boomer tier tankie bs.
Good thing propaganda cannot be spread via audio then lol
Fortunately this mans grandfather never listened to podcasts.
Bruh
I had to reread about 8 times because I was so shook. Thanks for letting me know my eyes work (unfortunately).
TIL there are no capitalist people who can read, as reading leads into communism or something idk if I could read I’d probably try to find the meme in this
Well, capitalists(people who own the means of production) who can read generally continue to support the system that benefits them.
And they’re able to pay so proles mostly only read ideas that are supportive of capitalism.
But that isnt the point of the meme, the joke is that this guy thinks illiteracy is the best defense against communism, when the best defense is making communism into a boogeyman so literate people won’t read their ideas.

I think communists are the joke in this, as they are the joke in many things. Many people have read communist theory, it’s just trash theory, literate or not really.

Cool, so what theory have you read then? I’m guessing you’ve read the basics if you are so confident that they are trash. Or are you too scared of the boogeyman of communism to be exposed to its ideas?
I read at least the first two das kapitals in my upper secondary years (maybe the third too but can’t recall tbh). Reckon that’d be pretty basic introductory baby’s first taste of trash political ideologies.
Cool, what were the biggest problems you’ve found with them, and did you read later marxist critiques of those problems?
As a marxist leninist, I know those books have plenty of flaws, so I’m curious about which ones stood out to you.
Imma level down with you, I have no fucking recollection it was almost 20 years ago. I am leftist, and have been, but after reading through that I came to the conclusion that I am not a fucking looney and started living a life of a normal person.
Okay, so you don’t remember any communist theory but you know it is all trash, understood.
Haha wow this is the worst, dumbest statement I’ve heard in quite a while. Amazing!
“Having legs” was always the most basic tool of bicyclist propaganda. If you have no legs, you can’t be fed bicyclist propaganda. The most steadfast anti-biker I knew in my childhood was a corn snake I found in my backyard. Bicycle propaganda did not reach him.
Did he forget that communism always removed the inteligent, as in literate and schooled people, from anywhere? Jesus, I’m ashamed that I share a nationality with this guy.
Communist nations have higher literacy than the wealthiest capitalist nations.
So like, where’s the meme dude? Did you forget it?

Ah, so you guys are just using alts to end run around defederation now.
This is on lemmy.ml, which is federated with lemmygrad.
Also, not a dude, not everyone on the internet is a guy, especially in communist spaces.
