Yeah, this is not how you draw people in. First of all, the message does not need to be in ALL CAPS. Second, the message either needs to be abbreviated or less noticeable than a larger one that can quickly entice the passer‐by. Finally…a mere flier is unlikely to suffice. Demonstrate yourself doing something good, like giving a sleeping bag or food to a houseless person, explain that you are doing this because you are anarchist/socialist, and if they become curious, then you offer a flier.
I can understand why these anarchists would immediately pick shortcuts like this one—I’ve certainly been there myself—but as they accumulate experience, they’re going to learn the sad truth that these brute‐force tactics rarely work.
