Luigi twitter has led me to back pain twitter which has led me to medical malpractices and like, how can you blame people for distrusting / being afraid of science when everything done and produced is made in the search for profits ?
This society is sick, and convincing people hurt by it that we need to topple it, and that they'll be the ones in the driver's seat, requires a lot more than "facts and logic" and being called stupid. The exploited and oppressed are called stupid every day by the ruling class, for not rising above their situation. It may sound corny, but caring for people different from you, in beliefs and origin and situation, caring and trying so hard to understand you begin to love, that's the starting point for sharing ideas with people.
More than a decade ago, I discovered the words of class-enemy, reactionary ultra-religious preacher Orson Scott Card : "to think like them, you have to understand them, and once you understand them, you love them." His reasoning was about defeating people (and probably a whole ass of Christianity pain and sin and superiority and love and Messiah shit I simply wasn't raised to get), but it came back to me when I realised that you can't convince people without knowing how they think, what revolts them in this society, what they want for a future. Genuine bonds between individuals revolted by this world is by far not sufficient to bring capitalism to its knees, but it sure is necessary.
Discomfort with socializing, meeting strangers, eye contact, small talk, arguments with loved ones, speaking with people whose beliefs and living conditions are so far away from yours, all these barriers will need to become mere sidewalk in your quest for a better world. You're not alone struggling, and you'll find so much beauty and depth and life along the way.

On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. Since its launch in 2013, Telegram has grown from a simple messaging app to a broadcast network. Its user base isn’t as vast as WhatsApp’s, and its broadcast platform is a fraction the size of Twitter, but it’s nonetheless showing its use. While Telegram has been embroiled in controversy for much of its life, it has become a vital source of communication during the invasion of Ukraine. But, if all of this is new to you, let us explain, dear friends, what on Earth a Telegram is meant to be, and why you should, or should not, need to care. Telegram was founded in 2013 by two Russian brothers, Nikolai and Pavel Durov. Meanwhile, a completely redesigned attachment menu appears when sending multiple photos or vides. Users can tap "X selected" (X being the number of items) at the top of the panel to preview how the album will look in the chat when it's sent, as well as rearrange or remove selected media. The War on Fakes channel has repeatedly attempted to push conspiracies that footage from Ukraine is somehow being falsified. One post on the channel from February 24 claimed without evidence that a widely viewed photo of a Ukrainian woman injured in an airstrike in the city of Chuhuiv was doctored and that the woman was seen in a different photo days later without injuries. The post, which has over 600,000 views, also baselessly claimed that the woman's blood was actually makeup or grape juice.
