Comrade, I think it would be beneficial and constructive to direct BanMeFromPosting to works like our favorite Georgian philosopher and political activist’s Marxism and the National Question, rather than insult and give vague advice to just “read more.” It isn’t enough to direct people in the vague idea of theory, we have to see ourselves as planting seeds and nurturing sprouts, seeing what needs to be done for a comrade’s growth and pointing them in an accurate direction.
Comrade, educational praxis is a core aspect of organizing. If you cannot lead people that are willing to learn to better theory, or correct their misconceptions directly, you cannot create disciplined cadre. I understand that this isn’t an actual party, and thus conditions are wildly different, but any onlooker that may have seen their post with no rebuttal or redirection may continue to have misconceptions about settler-colonialism. Here’s Mao on how to properly handle misconceptions:
To indulge in personal attacks, pick quarrels, vent personal spite or seek revenge instead of entering into an argument and struggling against incorrect views for the sake of unity or progress or getting the work done properly. This is a fifth type.
To hear incorrect views without rebutting them and even to hear counter-revolutionary remarks without reporting them, but instead to take them calmly as if nothing had happened. This is a sixth type.
To be among the masses and fail to conduct propaganda and agitation or speak at meetings or conduct investigations and inquiries among them, and instead to be indifferent to them and show no concern for their well-being, forgetting that one is a Communist and behaving as if one were an ordinary non-Communist. This is a seventh type.
Simply attacking a mistaken comrade doesn’t actually fight liberalism, it entrenches it. Stalin also recognized this. For those unwilling and inflexible, re-education was employed.
Well, considering that response, I think I take the thank you back. Given what I know and what I’ve read and your hostile disagreement, I can only conclude you’re the one who’s wrong on all accounts. You dissapoint me in your lack of knowledge. I will now block you. My final words? Read “das kapital”
It is you lacking your understanding in both Marxism and history.

Our Georgian Philosopher also sent dumbfucks to the reeducation camps.

No hostility here. Just honest advice. 🥰
