“the bourgeouis Communist” oof, i felt that.
anybody here NOT go to college?
Does it count if I come from a working-class family and did nothing career-wise with my college education except bury myself in government-assisted student debt
I’d say so. Seems like college is just an over priced high school diploma these days.
Do you find yourself citing Gramsci in conversation, tho?
Just Marx, I’m a poser 😔
Orwell was endlessly interesting. A man of note that came through Eton college without right wing leanings.
His journalistic review of the state of the pit workers, their families and their economic plight in the north of England, in ‘The Road to Wigan Pier’ was very eye-opening.
I have Homage to Catalonia yet to read, but he was clearly impassioned, empathetic and willing, in his relatively short life.
I wish I was driven by a love for people like Orwell. My political motivations are a bit more abstract. I’m more driven by a hatred of systems.
Me, heartlessly: “BEING GOOD TO PEOPLE IS MORE EFFICIENT”
THANK YOU! I FOUND THIS VERY INSPIRATIONAL! CONSIDER BOOKING AN APPEARANCE ON OPRAH!
