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.
Our Georgian Philosopher also sent dumbfucks to the reeducation camps.
