Comment on Does anyone think people in Minnesota should radicalize others there to socialism?

A: Learning about socialism is not radicalizing.
B: Americans have been propagandized to death, poisioning their minds to believe socialism is abject poverty for everyone but the poor lazy useless eaters. They are on average just stupid enough to beleive it without question.

If so, then what’s radicalizing like?
To be honest, I think the best time the US should’ve become a socialist country would be during the Great Depression - the economy was going down the toilet and people are waiting to get by, but it’s gonna require word-of-mouth, an aversion of the Red Scares and such. The alternate history story “Reds! A Revolutionary Timeline” (wiki here) would probably give you an idea on what would that be like.

Word of mouth can’t compete with fascist corporate media broadcasting poison 24/7 to idiots. Radio, TV, “news”, web content. It’s highly orchestrated scientifically optimized propaganda.

All broadcasting monopolies should be seized by the workers, split into different companies and then collectivized by the workers. Seriously!

Well, a good night’s sleep is important for your health and well being. A shower if for your hygiene and also smooths over social interactions. A healthy breakfast gives you energy to work hard until your next meal.

Maybe “reciprocalism”, perhaps?
