Sometimes I feel that talking to liberals is genuinely like talking to children who understand nothing. They give you the same blank ass stares too.
To them, history and world events are just people walking into rooms and saying things.
Imagine trying to interpret the “base vs. superstructure” understanding of society, except completely ignoring that the base even exists in the first place. Like, it doesn’t even occur to them.
Yeah I don’t get it. We have theories for literally everything else in the world. Gravity, evolution, etc etc. But oh nooooo not for society and history, that’s not allowed.

Children are easier to talk to because they aren’t dogmatic and are generally more excited to learn things. Liberals disdain learning new things.
An even worse trait of modern liberals is their cynicism - an active dismissal of any coherent framework for politics or history

Sorry, I use lived experience to analyze politics, not nerdy theory
Funny thing is, lived experience led me to theory.
They’re just that oblivious, either that or they’re petit bourgeois who’ve never felt the effects of exploitation.
I only have a problem with “lived experience” when people subsitute it for studying politics
