So I am being brought to one of these No Kings marches on Saturday. Any pointers on talking to libs in a way that they will listen and get curious about Socialism?
A couple orgs will be there including PSL, but from comrades’ stories from the last two of these they don’t actually bring up Socialism during their speaking slots and talk about imperialism instead. I would like to be more explicit in tying what is happening to Capitalism and especially try to get across that Trump is just a symptom of the problem.
I think it depends on where the person is in their leftist journey so far, so maybe a probing question to start with to find that out, or like bringing up something recent and seeing how they feel about that to judge where they are?
After that, idk. Definitely going to try to come back to this question though because it’s a good one. All my points I can think of right now are about imperialism lately because it’s in the news, but maybe something about AI? Everyone has been starting to acknowledge that it’s pretty cool sometimes but there are parts of it that are hugely sucky, and it’s hard to ignore when everyone is losing their jobs constantly lately with AI often being the excuse.
