minus-squareHappySkullsplitter@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-219 hours agoGo for it, dig your heels in. It’s a needless uphill battle, we’re trying to get people on our side who will never understand what socialism is. They only “know” that it’s bad. They have no idea what it is, only that they’ve been told ad nauseum that it’s bad. It’s a losing battle with ignorant people, better off just going at it with fresh nomenclature to make any kind of progress on it We can try to educate these people until we’re blue in the face and will not change anything
