I'm trying. They are so close. Their whole brains are full of conspiracies of elites trying to destroy Western Civilization and they are so so close to class consciousness.

Lol I'm a leftist. If you want to be productive, you can't push everyone out. You have to find common ground. Our society is breaking. Communism has plenty to offer most MAGA people. They just need to see it.

Society doesn't prioritize knowledge for it's own sake. It prioritizes making money. If society was different, more people could pursue hard sciences.

Ok but that's a reductive view of human beings. Average MAGA folks are uneducated and propagandized, but they aren't evil and viewing them as such feeds into the culture war.

You need to construct a vision of society that allows both to succeed. Everyone is struggling these days and you need to construct a society that values all people.

I just throw my hands up and think "if I need to remember it, something will remind me, hopefully before it's not too late"

No I guess not. I guess we gotta work on that.

Pretty crazy the US is dismantling it's apparatus for controlling the world by itself. The Soviet Union could only dream of this month.
