What sources can I link to people who trust Wikipedia on history and politics, particularly about AES and imperialism?
Thank you!

Yup, just regular people who’ve been propagandized their entire lives by the hegemonic Global North liberal ideology.
Sometimes they try to explain things to me, as if I didn’t grow up under the exact same conditions as they did, went to the same schools, consumed the same media, and got fed the same cold war propaganda. I know exactly what & how they think because I was them.
Oh this is super frustrating for me too. I’ve only been really considered a communist for like 6 months. So all my friends and family and everyone around me had the exact same opinions as me more than 6 months ago. But now that my opinion has changed on a bunch of topics, all of the sudden they need to explain things like I’m 5 years old. I’m a full grown adult and we’ve known each other for years! You don’t need to explain your perspective to me! I already know it!
I’m an elder gen-x, so if you think they’re doing this because you’re young, I’m sorry to report that it’s not that.
Fair enough! Good to know this isn’t ageism at least.
Curious when we become old enough to have enough experience to meaningfully argue for communism. 24 is still too “inexperienced” to truly understand why communism can’t work and capitalism is the best we’ll ever have.
Been calling myself one for ten years. Been studying it for ten years. Still get told by people who haven’t even left their home state that I’m just naive about the realities of the world. Lol.
And feds and assets, see that recent “Words of Iron” story about coordinated hasbara
