I am not because I live in a pretty conservative area. So I try to get some leftist points through to coworkers without opening myself up to the ridicule of just being a “commy degenerate” in their eyes. So I think I can get through to them better without outting myself as a Marxist.
This is kind of where I’m at. I’ve been slowly working on radicalizing my lib foreman. And at this point I’ve got him agreeing with me on a lot of stuff that I just think no one has really brought to his attention before. I’ve yet to go further than sowing the seeds of leftist thought. But I did catch him last week saying something about how our coworkers should band together for better pay and benefits. So that’s cool. :debs:
I’ve pretty successful radicalized most of my immediate friends to stuff. At work I find that people are pretty open to leftist thought I mean that’s why they propagandize it so hard and why the propagandized come to similar conclusions about things just reverse bc their brains are full of poison, this stuff hits home for working class people they feel it on an intrinsic level in a lot of cases.
I have one client that is frustrating but I’m getting there. He’s a conspiracy brained dude, think like ‘weather machines cause the hurricanes’ and stuff. He’s extremely anti govt and that’s the angle I’ve been going at. And it’s funny cuz hell agree with me about stuff but when it challenges the brain worms he has i can see him trying to reconcile, fail, and then disregard the new info he just agreed with to keep the worms. But he’s learning a little over time. He’s stubborn but I’ll get him eventually haha
