I’m noticing a lot of people taking “you should read more about this, here are some book recommendations” as insulting their intelligence.
This is relevant because most USians lack a political education.

I went as far as even making a SpongeBob gif that says “read theory” before realizing that the average Westerner doesn’t care to understand anything beyond their tiny western state-opperated media bubble.
I had told someone on lemmy.ml that they should read a bit about Marxism because they were sounding like a bot and it resulted in a total meltdown by them so I just went to lurking mostly on that account.
However in leftist spaces I will continue to suggest things I think are appropriate to whatever the discussion is and will continue to grab up epubs that I see suggested.
In short, the average schmuck doesn’t care so I won’t try to help anymore.
