    thanks for putting words in my mouth lol

    racism obviously isn't dead, but you'd be hard pressed to find a way that our current society holds people down due to their race in by legal means, never mind blaming in on capitalism in 2021.
    Presently, I do think that black people have to take some blame for the position that they are in currently. Black people as a whole were on an upward trajectory as far as socioeconomic status even under Jim Crow, before many values that got them there went out the window (i.e., nuclear family structure being a big one)

    It is important to acknowledge how racism has gotten black people as a whole to their current position, but also important to acknowledge what has come from oppression and what has come from culture/choices. I mentioned this in a reply to synopsis, but Asian-Americans are a prime example of how culture/choices can lift a group out of oppression and into success in only a few generations.

    delete this before anyone sees

    Indeed. That is the point lmao.

    So when I see privileged whites playing the communist, I wonder what the f*** they are doing. I know they don't want it. They have everything to lose and nothing to gain. Most of these communists online are middle class whites who have done well within the system.

    Like your mans Synopsis.

    You can cherry pick many different people from different eras. Engels is another. Great men.

    Not sure what your point here is?

    Would you trust white people to lead black people?

    You didn’t even consider that privileged people would advocate the implementation of a more equitable economy in the spirit of selflessness and the by-definition guarantee that their status would be lowered, all for the greater good of their fellow man

    I can’t blame you personally for failing to recognize the altruism in someone’s beliefs; growing up in society of red scare capitalist individualism moulds one’s psyche to only see themselves in the equation

    You live in a fantasy world. Whilst these people do exist, they are so uncommon, that it is pointless to discuss them. It is the equivalent of saying 'not all white people' or 'not all men'.

    You can absolutely cherry pick certain individuals. But just as black people should be very wary of white people, the working and underclass should be wary of the more privileged. Very wary.

    It is wise to be wary and untrustworthy of such people. Most are up to no good.

    Engels at the time of his death was a millionaire. He bankrolled Marx. He realized (as we should) that it MUST be the more privileged who defend and support the oppressed... because they’re too busy being oppressed! slaving away in some textile mill all day. They don’t have the resources (time/money/information) to motivate or spark a popular movement.

    This is obvious to me. I get confused when people try to “gotcha” anybody who isn’t in poverty thats advocating socialism

    i literally dont care i just want to end homelessness and get everyone healthcare and im in.

    I am currently working on ending homelessness. Srs. I have dedicated my time to homeless people and I am getting them to sleep infront of the houses or landlords and council buildings, pissing up the walls.
