    no new baby communist

    I mean we have plenty of those, hell I still consider myself one I won’t even call myself a ML because I don’t think I’m educated enough, I just stick with marxist, it’s more just about if that post was left unchallenged and for how long

    • You just have to avoid actual debates and instead ask questions to avoid embarrassing yourself ig. Like here:

      Person A: “blah blah blah socialist state blah blah blah

      Person B (newbie): “you idiot socialism is stateless”

      Person C (also newbie): “isn’t socialism stateless?”

      Person C will get an actual response and will learn more, Person B will get screenshotted and added to a cringe compilation.

        Yeaah learned that the hard way. I made an utter cringe post once with way too many stupid assumptions even though I understood like the principles of Marxism and that’s it. Past me shouldn’t have presented himself as totally sure of these statements, and instead been like ‘what should I make of that?’. Just by a simple change of attitude - way less trauma xD. I wonder if the guy in the screenshot learned from his mistake?

          Many of us have been there. I can recall some very cringe comments I made about China on r/communism. No one bothered to correct me there. If I did the same here, you can be sure someone would post at least 3 paragraphs explaining why my perspective is incomplete and incorrect. You all are amazing!

        How did Gramsci manage to write faster than I can read?
