Ukraine-Russia Megathread 7

The people who said "the west have no revolutionary potential" have the W all along, the average westerner is just so thoroughly brainwashed to have any kind of consciousness.

I get you comrade and you're doing top work with those videos, but the reality is its not going to shift most people, especially while we're in the thick of it.

It sucks, but that's how this always works in my experience - you'll probably only ever radicalise a few of the people you ever try to and especially with something like your videos, you might help people think about it differently and never even know.

And where we are right now, in the eye of the storm with nothing but constant blaring propaganda and fear about nuclear weapons and all the rest of it swirling around people everywhere they turn, it's gonna be extra hard to be heard over the noise.

But if there's a silver lining its that the level of noise and chaos and constant propaganda doesn't last forever. Eventually people get a clearer view. I know dozens of people who either turned into hardcore anti-imperialists or at milquetoast anti-interventionists after Afghanistan and Iraq. And most of those people are at least tentatively,shyly against the escalation of this war by the West now. I couldn't make progress with them either in the earliest days of those wars. But as time went on they could see them more clearly for what they were.

Scatter the seeds comrade. Most might not but some will sprout eventually and those are the ones to nurture.
