  • Attach yourself to the hip with the peoples’ movements. That can mean anything from immigrants rights, tenant and workers unions, community defense, mutual aid societies to student organizing and LGBTQ+ advocacy.

    The point is to use your knowledge of Marxism to advance the struggle to levels impossible under liberalism, and then you win over people to Marxism through your practice.

    You’re never going to win over people to Marxism by mere persuasion alone. You need to show them in real-life the scientific nature of Marxism.

    Edit: For your specific case, you need to focus your efforts on a campaign. Use your knowledge of the local area to see what issue students care the most about and then organize around that issue. If people care about said issue and your outreach is good, people from the community will come forward and join you.

    Edit2: When choosing an issue, the more existential it is to a particular constituency, the better. That’s how you get hard-working activists.

  • I remember when the first photos of him being alive in CECOT came out and I immediately noticed discoloration around his eyes and on his face.

    I pointed out that he’s probably being tortured and the white people at work blew me off as being “alarmist”.

    But who cares about brown people right? After all, it’s our labor which enables the lifestyles of the white petit bourgeois.

  • Seeing more people online openly disregard American propaganda on Xinjiang is very interesting to see in real-time.

    This must have been how people felt like when the Tet Offensive destroyed the government narrative surrounding the Vietnam War, the narrative that the Vietnamese were eminently about to capitulate.

    I can’t help but draw comparisons between the Tet Offensive and the Palestinian genocide. Both had the same effect of smashing American propaganda.
