Real question, how many of you adhere neatly to one ideology? I think everybody vibes with a particular tendency, but personally I'm totally happy to steal good ideas from across ideological lines. I definitely think there's an optimal way to achieve a leftist society as well, however if someone implements another plan to get us there that doesn't fuck others over, I don't see myself being too upset so long as we get where we're going.
Just asking because I see people engage in never-ending theory battles online, as well as discounting the contributions of leftists of other tendencies. It seems so strange to me, like instead of acknowledging the good work others have done, while maintaining your own critiques for how to do it better, it seems more in vogue to treat other ideologies as fakes designed to waste your time and meet them with hostility.
I mean obviously this is the internet, people are constantly cranked up to 11, trolling, or genuinely suffering from untreated mental illness. But it seems to me that we're seeing a massive resurgence in leftist thought and action, so I figured people would exercise a little discipline to make the most of the moment. Tbf, this could all be crazy people, bots, government psyops, and algorithmic manipulation. I've just seen people I genuinely appreciate engage in the same shit, so there has to be some element that's real.

>listen to moronsPerhaps I should be clearer. I am saying to listen to literally everyone. Everyone. Even those who we would line up against a wall. This is for the sole purpose of learning how to mind-fuck them even better because this is the age of psychological warfare and we should be doing that more often.
I'm not wrong here, am I?
>>2867106youre trying to pass off vibes and aura as anything but a waste of fucking time. you could simply learn to analyze and study the material world scientifically instead of this shit, lol. the whole criticism of ideology is that it inherently masks how real life actually works
