How do we deal with large swathes of political radicals and potential organizers being lazy spectator brained pieces of shit who do nothing but scroll the internet and generate endless lists of excuses for personal inaction?

obviously you have to murder them all
obviously

Send em to gulag

I don't think the problem is these people aren't doing enough, I think they're doing too much. They need to stop scrolling the internet and stop exposing themselves to constant media noise and being empirical robots that just mindlessly consume and parse and mimic outside information, they need to actually do nothing, just sit in a chair with no distractions and think and use their fucking brains for once in their lives.

I think after disconnecting from passive media brain people should get back into the habit of doing things, but it needs to be planned and oriented around a clear intention and purpose. It is very easy to just react mindlessly but action requires proactive intention.

It's because they're not starving or being exploited enough simple really, trying to force it is utopianism other than awareness spreading

A lot of internet addicts are surprisingly poor. You'd be shocked at how much cheaper a phone and internet/WiFi are compared to basic essentials like housing or healthcare. There are homeless people who spend all day on Twitter.

It’s better these people be in the internet instead of polluting actual organizations with their personality disorders

>>2521727
People do nothing because they’re scared of the current government

Do nothing complains about other people doing nothing

I like politics as a hobby, in my personal life I hate dealing with people so no organizing for me, you can be a communist and be detatched at the same time.

Communist identity is not product you pick from the shelf of walmart
If you are anti-social, you cannot be a communist

>>2522052
ok then I'm not a communist, just find communism as true.

The first step is understanding why this is. And it's in large part because of socialism representing a certain kind of secularized Christianity

Second is the lack of viewing 'communism' in existentialist terms. If you already operate on the basis that you have no power and no freedom at all (as a worker), and that "real communism" is a spontaneous rapture scheduled to happen at a yet unknown point sometime in the future. Then it becomes both an excuse and reason for inaction.

Consider for example the following thought experiment: Imagine a world with only a few dozen inhabitants, all living in a single community. What technologies they have or do not have access to doesn't matter. But imagine that they're all living without wage labor, without capital, and labor is performed based on need and desire not profit. And everyone feels they choose to live like this, and no one feels they're living inauthentically or are forced to do anything they consider to be unethical.
Then ask yourself: Would this be (actually existing) communism?

Then imagine the same community, but instead on Earth. Existing either in isolation or the periphery of capitalist civilization, or perhaps even hidden in plain sight. Would this still be communism? Or are they're just a bunch of lumpen anarkiddie utopian idealist lib adventurists?

>youre a piece of shit if you come to terms with your own powerlessness
i am unashamedly distanced from political action

They will, people always do stuff if they got nothing else to do, but first they have to have nothing else to do.

Start doing,just DOING something

>>2521727
by doing nothing
