Which we should see as an excellent radicalization and growth opportunity!

It can be exhausting explaining ourselves again and again, always met with the same accusations and assumptions born from the mythos spun by our enemies.

However, we must remember these people are people, and many people change their minds given enough information, delivered with firm respect. For every belligerent person who appears like they wouldn't change their mind for anything, there are 10 people quietly lurking who are more on-the-fence. Even those who regurgitate insults and contempt may change their mind when the stars align!

These people are not our enemies, they are victims to the greatest campaign of dishonesty in human history! It is our duty to draw out the poison and deliver the medicine!

I know many comrades here have very difficult lives and do not have the patience or energy to deal with such people. Please do not exhaust yourself interacting with liberals, and allow comrades with more energy to deal with them.

Radicalizing online is not the end-all be-all, but at this point in the psychological war for those within the Anglosphere, every victory is invaluable!!!

I was radicalizing at around the same time as you, but my radicalization mostly came from interacting in person with Democratic activists and officials and realizing (with the help of communists) that if I actually cared about helping people, the Democratic Party was not on my side.

We all should never have trusted anything this evil country says, but do not be hard on yourself, it is the most powerful propaganda machine in the world it comes at you from every facet of your life it is reinforced by family, friends, entertainment media, news media, jobs, everything. Even many Global Southerners drink exported American koolaid.

It doesn't help that drinking a little of that koolaid can make life a whole lot easier. (In the short term, anyway – to any liberals reading, you won't believe how cosy life will be during the socialist construction phase – free healthcare, guaranteed housing, meaningful work, free education, libraries, parks, you name it. There's no such thing as poor socialism and that wealth will be your duty to create and share.)
