I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

    America might be flawed but it’s still overall a force for good in the world.

    Biden might suck but we should still vote for Democrats on the state or local levels and participate in the [nonexistent] primary to put pressure on Democrats because they are clearly better than Republicans and progressives would never lie to us (cough bernie cough fetterman cough AOC).

    Communism is impossible because it goes against human nature.

    China is capitalist.

    Organizing for revolution in the USA is hopeless.

    It’s impossible to scientifically understand human societies, even though humans are part of nature and nature can be scientifically understood.

    We can solve all our problems with technology alone. There’s no need to change anything else.

    Things will be better in the future even if I don’t actually do anything to make them better. (This one has been an issue for me. “The future” for a Marxist like myself isn’t terribly different from religious visions of paradise.)
