Do you guys make a habit of going into non-leftist spaces online and trying to voice your opinions? I'm not talking about covert propaganda or anything, just about putting your position out there, starting a conversation and seeing where you get. It's almost become a hobby of mine to go onto Reddit and anger a bunch of libertarian types. It's too fucking easy. Shitting on the alt-right in the YouTube comments is a lot of fun as well.
Does this accomplish anything? I have a sense that it increases my intuitive understanding of political economy, but don't know if what I'm writing is actually reaching anyone. Maybe just having an opposing voice out there can keep people from falling into these right-wing ideological black holes.
no, i think sarcasm is more effective. ex. "because corporation [x] has our best interest at heart", "the market wins yet again". most people are intellectually lazy and aren't willing to listen to new ideas but you can always chip away at whatever bullshit they believe by mocking them

It helps developing your positions. You won't accomplish anything, but it might help you organize your thoughts better.

I think memes are the most effective way. Most people are too lazy and dumb, to grasp new ideas (especially leftist ideas). Without jokes and funny pictures it just doesn't work. It is no coincidence, that the political establishment is using satirical TV shows/late night shows to shill for their agenda.

I think killing is the most effective way. Most people are too lazy and dumb, to grasp new ideas (especially Stalinist ideas). Without commissars and gulags it just doesn't work. It is no coincidence, that the political establishment is using satirical posters to shill for their agenda.
