One of the ways the state maintains capitalism & white hegemony is through information warfare. The US state has the largest and most advanced propaganda apparatus on the planet. Revolutionary left wing tendencies do not exist for long in the status-quo. This is by design. Ignorance to left wing prefigured politics maintains the status-quo's legitimacy. The state is incredibly effective at coopting narratives to reform its image.
