Yep. It is almost impossible to exist peacefully here unless you make at least twice as much as the average working person and happen to be born white.

How do you get liberals to read?
Maybe this is a semantic thing, but communist parties actually don’t force revolutions. A revolutionary situation from capitalist crisis must occur for that to happen. This is clarified by Lenin. Trying to force a revolution before a truly revolutionary situation is an error ultra-left parties and orgs do and it ends up alienating them from the masses.
(Good) communist parties aren’t passive though; they build revolutionary consciousness, provide alternative systems for addressing people’s needs, and form networks with other organizations and unions and ultimately win over as much as the working masses and their allies that they can, so that when a revolutionary situation occurs the people have a party to turn towards. Communists don’t wait; they organize and prepare.
Not only that, but artists absolutely embue elements from their subconscious into their work. When we talk about the author’s intention, what we’re really talking about is their ego’s contribution to their work. They can give their works meaning that they didn’t consciously intend or even that they disagree with.
