The issue is informing and educating people and awakening their consciousness to the system they live in.
Yeah so mass culture
Partially, capitalism sustains itself by the proletariat convincing the working class that capitalism actually benefits them, allowing the working class to dismiss the exploitation they face
is so good a form of propaganda
bourgeois oops
@Nicholas91 which in itself is a product of capitalism
which is what makes it hard for leftists to capture mainstream attention
Well it's so good that people police themselves politically
@Uriel Well these adaptations do benefit the working class so they do lap it up.
that's why democratic socialism is a thing
Not to shit on dem-socs
Capitalism has a way of synthesizing and absorbing new things
case in point female Ghostbusters and Black Panther
Yes good point
Dem soc us cancer
Is
There's a lot of talk about agitating and raising class consciousness, but I think the 21st century version of this is somehow disabling the spectacle
Or countering it
we arent in factories and so forth any more
we are highly atomised
@Nicholas91 that's a good point
@Nicholas91 Also I'm glad someone at least has read about Debord
Debord basically explains how to run a totalitarian state on the sly
Zuckerberg is obviously a fan
off topic
but did you hear about that Russian troll thats now working at facebook?
No and I can't follow this narrative any more
Lemme see if I can find an article or something
I atleast found this
In the sense that I feel unable to make anything close to an objective assesment on the situation
but that isn't the right thing
Russian trolls made Hillary unelectable by pointing out her flaws <:blobsmirk:396521731185180684>
I was just trying to point out that Zuck has plenty of buisness working with authoritarian regimes.
Ah right
@nerd or the DNC just plain fucking stupid
and decided to run with a shit candidate that was unelectable from the start
obviously
they alienated leftists by picking her then bitch and whine when people won't pick there corrupt warmongering candidate on the merit that she has a vagina
her husband is also a complete fucking sexual deviant
