       I urge my fellow online leftists to reconsider using overtly Marxist language. terms like “bourgeois” are radioactive to someone who has internalized capitalist propaganda. the ideas aren’t difficult to explain in plainer language. “meet people where they’re at,” as they say

       @count_bobby yeah anyone using the term "bourgeois" on the regular is somebody terminally fixated upon politics to the point of ridiculemost people have jobs and families to worry about. you know, "internalized capitalist propaganda"explaining internet leftism to people is pretty easy though; eat the rich, taxation at 100%, print money, who cares? oh and if we start a war it's justified but if those other guys start a war they're fascists or somethinglol

       @count_bobby Proletariat. Class interest, class consciousness. I'm sure there are others. Marxism and its language are radioactive and the working class movement needs to get away from it. Marxist countries were miserable places to be a worker.Talk about the working class, working people, wage theft, and the fact that during the heyday of America, the labor share of the economy was several points higher than it is today. That resonates with people.

       @badushka @count_bobby Working class not so much, but the others are Marxist.You can generally tell Marxist writing just from the style.
