      They control the media though, can’t win the class war by changing the language because just as much as they can make people afraid of the word communism (for fucks sake it means etymologically to live in communion together) they can make people afraid of any word. Don’t let the right change our language.

      Disagree on that, becoming a Communist requires untangling the Bootstrap narrative and the myth of meritocracy. One can logically be led to Communism, but without debunking the ideological aspects of liberalism the conclusion doesn’t connect.
