I feel like anti-intelectualism has won. People can be given free audiobooks, the physical book, etc but they refuse to read because they view reading theory as bad or some bullshit. I have a friend and she thinks “its posh” to read theory. It seems like everyone has fallen for the propaganda that the only people who read theory are rich white college students. It fucking pisses me off.
organised political education built into the regular activity of a mass socialist party
the road to mass political education isn’t just handing out books and pamphlets but developing infrastructure and organisers who are popular pedagogues that can spread Marxist thought beyond the confines of small, insular groups. at the same time the need and usefulness of revolutionary theory must be demonstrated by the effectiveness of our interventions into the class struggle wherever it is to be found.
