First, marxist-leninists and those in similar sphere do a lot more than “tell people to read”. Second, there are multiple ways to acquire knowledge written in a book. For example, if someone is visually impaired, they can use audio books, provided the resources are made available for them. Information can also be expressed through lectures, seminars, streams, podcasts, etc. Reading groups can help people with denser texts that are hard to understand. Third, disabilities are a real thing that holds people back in various ways and needs accommodation, but luckily, “forcing someone to read” is not necessary in order to get them information and if they are disabled to the point they can’t read, trying to force them to isn’t going to accomplish anything anyway.
I think it’s just bad faith, basically.
