More relevant than ever: “The Uncommunist Manifesto” by Alex Svetski nostr:nprofile1qqsx45yrjtgm4glklaafgz0z4309gs6cwfja3d99s8rqvlvgagcptpqprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet54gjttu and Mark Moss.
🔹Absolutely love that the book starts with definitions— words have been used a little too freely these days and have lost its original meaning as a result. Having dialogues is crucial, but a discussion between people who can’t even agree on the definition of the key words being used is like building a house on a foundation of sand— everything built on top of it will not stand the test of the storm.
🔸With rise in support for socialism/communism ideologies in the west, how can those who understand the consequences play a role in de-escalating this phenomenon. In order to do so effectively, as Charlie Kirk said, we must have conversations. And if we wanted to convince the mislead members of our society, we ourselves must first be able to well-articulate why it is not a good idea. We all know we shouldn’t go there; but can we form a convincing argument backed by undeniable facts and lessons from history? This book is perfect for deepening our knowledge, and the authors even offer useful resources (charts, series of rebuttals to Marx’s ideology, etc.) on their website to equip us with the tools for the important discussions.
🔹This book is also perfect for the very supporters of the socialist/communist ideas—because you will be challenged by the rest of society, as this book will, and you’ll need to be able to defend your ideas in order to have them widely accepted. This will be a great practice opportunity for them.
