    If people are illiterate or incapable of reading in any capacity then it falls on us as teachers to educate them.

    The NPA in the Philippines holds study sessions for the poor rural population, many of these people can’t read but you can still read to them. They also teach them to read because the government won’t. I know a South American comrade who sought asylum here several years ago, and he told me he used to organise peasants in his home country with Mao, because he was so accessible. I didn’t really inquire further, but I assume the same applied: either they read to them or taught them to read.

    And of course there are audio books, courses (sometimes online), and other means of getting actual theory.

    But if someone doesn’t want to be educated, there isn’t much we can do I think. At least not online.
