Ahhh I gotcha. I didnt know .ml was Marxist leninist in that way. I kinda FW MLM, tbh. Especially the more I read and learn.
Tbf, I havent read much anarchist theory though, to counter balance. Right now, I am reading “seeing like a state” and I find the author’s interpretations of Lenin to be somewhat in bad faith, even.
That said, I am not an apologist for any system. Mistake were made during the ussr and Chinese revolutions 100%.
Im curious: where do you fall on the political spectrum?


Hell ya, best of luck.
The Socratic involves (but if not limited to), asking the person youre conversing with a lot of follow up questions. Continuing to drill down until you get to the root of the issue. Then, you can work backwards to change their thinking to be more grounded in reality.
This is a really bad explanation but it works wonders for Consevatives. Ill give you a real-world example i had with my parents:
Them: “we dont like immigrants”
Me: why?
Them: they take our jobs
Me: how do they do that?
Them: by working for subpar wages
Me: ya, it sucks because it does take jobs away from people in this country. I wish employers were willing to pay fair wages

I understand you may be hurting, brother. But, I promise you, in a healthy relationship, you wont feel this way. Much love


Im saying the problem is so vastly insignificant that its negligible. Im willing to change me mind in light of evidence. BUT, Extraordinary [changes to medical practices] requires extraordinary evidence


It is, hahah. Its how most people get most of their information (video/audio).

Okay, so you understand the implications of how absurd the question is?

My friend, you are extrapolating based in a sample size of 2, to the entire world. Then, proposing this MASSIVE healthcare change based on that. …
