In one hand it makes you aware of how things function in class-society and even in nature, and help you form an objective analysis.

On the other hand it makes you depressed about the current capitalist state of the world.

    I’m a communist on a decentralized social media app discussing leftist stuff with leftists. Why would the question be in bad faith? Seriously. Sometimes comrades – ya’ll can make the most simple discussions, really, a pain.

      bc ur question has nothing to do w the topic at hand. whether intended or not it’s a loaded, historically illiterate question that can ignore the material conditions of this territory. /nm /lh

      I was talking about how education works under imperialism. You brought up Nazis. i’m genuinely trying to understand!!! /nm /lh

        Okay, so it appears as though you’re not really trying to understand though by calling people illiterate, and I think we’re done here. Any question asked in a friendly forum is fully relevant and I don’t see how you’re a comrade pissing on someone trying to learn. Deeply ironic that you have all this academia jammed into your brain to teach you how to be decent, and you can’t even have a common discussion with a leftist on a leftist thread. Then you wonder why we can’t have solidarity. Sad. On a “comradeship” freechat no less. lol. Just…wow. Have the day you deserve man.

          Just commenting to tell you I added tone tags. I didn’t call YOU illiterate, I said your question was (whether intended or not). Never said it wasn’t relevant. I asked you questions as to your intentions and you answered none of them. The rest are just assumptions you’re making up about me. Thank you, I will have a lovely day. I’m femme-presenting btw /calm /lh /gen /nbr

            I don’t have anything else to discuss with you. You did imply I was illiterate. I don’t care what was intended, it’s about what was said in response, after something REALLY basic was asked. In good faith. I asked YOU about a Nazi problem in Argentina. The rest is window dressing. You present as femme. Superb for you. You were being a goaltender on a freechat after literally telling me my question wasn’t relevant. Re-read the entire discussion. Gain some perspective, and learn that sometimes in your effort to understand (your words) – you didn’t. At all. Again – have the day you deserve. Whatever tone tags do – enjoy that too I guess.

                    If I got out of work just then, sure. Not sure why you’re being passive aggressive about a comment like that. They were using a strange argument about Stalin and Mao in another thread. They seemed pretentious and manipulative. Someone replied with a confused reaction picture and they framed it as a negative interaction and were immediately hostile. It’s the same here with them immediately arguing you were implying they were illiterate, when you didn’t. Sorry, I guess?
