Haha wow this is the worst, dumbest statement I’ve heard in quite a while. Amazing!
Come to South Dakota, and I’ll introduce you to some people who will make even dumber comments about communism
(In fact, just pick someone at random and strike up a conversation)
“Having legs” was always the most basic tool of bicyclist propaganda. If you have no legs, you can’t be fed bicyclist propaganda. The most steadfast anti-biker I knew in my childhood was a corn snake I found in my backyard. Bicycle propaganda did not reach him.
Bicycles are awesome, I’d love to start a cult related to them
c/anticar is right this way sir
I’m not anti car, I’m pro cycling
Even tho my fat ass hasn’t ridden in years now
Removal of all benefits of civilization to… own the libs?
Has it ever not been?
Pretty literally what conservatism is about: keeping people stupid and in line. Hence their burning hatred for educamation
TIL communists can’t speak
Right? As if communists have no famous orators, lol.

I mean they don’t any more. But Trotsky was amazing at it
Just here to say that I love your username.
Weren’t attitudes like this literally why Lenin thought that Communism had to be forced on a society for a few generations for the least educated to “understand” Communism? Since there was no breaking through their preconceived notions? Because there’s literally no reaching these people?
LoL, I thought he was promoting communism. 😅
OP is.
I thought this is quite comical, cute,… wasn’t offended or upset by it in any way. And coincidentally 54% of adults in USA have a literacy below 6th grade level, while 21% of adults in USA are actually illiterate.
Did somebody transcribe this drivel for them?
Good thing propaganda cannot be spread via audio then lol
Fortunately this mans grandfather never listened to podcasts.
🍿🍿🍿 Poe’s law working overtime on this one.

illiterate is not necessarily stupid
He probably watched too much TVP what is Polish governoment propaganda.
Yes…it’s a dumb comment…but it’s kind of interesting too. Are we seeing the rise of the Right in the US because short form video became popular?
The us has always been right wing.
No.
Next question?
Short answer: No.
Long answer: no, but there is some correlation between the average attention span dropping, people enjoying short form videos, and a lack of a mind for nuance which is exploited by right wing propagandists and populists, causing a rise in right wing or even far right authoritarian politicians being elected across the world. I’m not nearly educated enough in the field to make any causation claims though (edit: except the one about propaganda exploiting a lack of nuance which causes those far right politicians to be elected, that one doesn’t need a whole lot of expertise to confirm).
Also the US has always been a country of two conservative parties, which could have something to do with more people being susceptible to right wing propaganda
Do you people actually know what a fucking meme is?
This sub is just tankie pictures. FML, shitty reddit client might be worth it.
Seriously, boomer tier tankie bs.
How is this a meme?
an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by internet users, often with slight variations.
an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other nongenetic means.
Look, I’m just as communist as the next guy on Lemmy but I don’t get how this is funny or an imitable element of culture. This is literally just your opinion.
Explaining a joke is always great fun so here we go: This is an obviously borderline braindead statement made by a person who seemingly thinks they would bring up a strong, valid argument.
No, this is the opinion of Andrzej Kozlowski. And it is funny.
