Yea, putting Combat Liberalism at the front implies a call to action before reading theory, aka it sets up the reader to go online and debate endlessly without knowing theory. It's silly, and is totally not exactly what I used to do before taking theory seriously hahahah of course not hahhaha kobeni-sweat

Truly all the theory teaching I do on my Lemmy.ml account is punishment for years of thinking I knew what Marxism was after reading the Manifesto and Socialism: Utopian and Scientific alone...

Same with Oppose Book Worship, like, at the beginning of a reading list and not at the end, a text focusing on touching grass and really working can be a double-edged sword. The central idea is to do both, read and practice, but with 2 summaries of summaries of the basics under your belt you aren't at risk of only reading yet, right? Just confusing.

I don't know that sounds perfectly in line with the ideology of the online left blob-no-thoughts

Truly the twelfth type of Liberalism, debating online without reading... So much wasted time... sadness

They should make a website where they do exactly that. Let's call it something after a geometrical shape and an ursine creature. comfy

Combat liberalism is just yourlogicalfallacyis.com for leftists.

Oh boy that's an inflammatory assertion right there, I love it

I asked Mao and he said I'm right and he's very disappointed in you all.

Thank God I'm not a moaist or else I'd actually be upset.

That's right! Aren't you the one who posted the legendary "I'm literally an anarcho-tankie" post on the subreddit way back when?

I don't think so, my claim to fame on the old sub was a proposal so cringe I got roasted non-stop for a week straight. It was so bad i wish i was the poster that coined the "I'm literally an anarcho-tankie!"

I won't declare what kind of content I made that got me roasted because I'm burying that past name in an unmarked grave.

Oh, sorry! I don't think I ever knew of it whatever it was rat-salute-2
