or better yet. get active. we're out here pushing counter propaganda in the streets and we don't see you out here, people for whom Harris wasn't good enough. we're doing the work outlined in all that theory you tell us to read, but we don't see you out here. it makes me think that crowd never understood what we were trying to do. for thousands of years our ancestors have passed down to us stories about charismatic authoritarians tricking people into believing a prior story of liberation grants them the mandate of heaven to take control and kill the non-believers and now in your religious furor to stick to karl marx's story you are missing the bigger picture. the people gaining power interpret the book of revelations literally. they think they have to all gather for a big final battle to the death. they ignore that core to the story of revelations is an antichrist who doesn't believe any of the things christ taught but uses charisma to wipe out the minority of good christians who kept to the teachings of christ who achieve eternal presence in the kingdom of heaven.
i read this story differently. to me, i think about what christians were experiencing at the time. they were having a genocide enacted against them. the romans were killing and torturing this radically egalitarian religion as it existed at the time. they justified this killing through religious means to the people. revelations is an instruction manual about how to recognize and resist authoritarianism. one that people consistently use to justify authoritarianism. it's the absolute cruelest joke in the world.
