And I’m just telling you you attract more flies with honey than vinegar.
This is a deflection. You don’t actually care about my tactics for getting people onboard with socialism. Proudhon and Marx described real social phenomena, and used the words theft and exploitation to describe them. I’m not attached to the words, if you want to use different words go for it, but we need words to describe it.
Annihilating the language that socialists use to critique capitalism is a common tactic, but it’s also uninteresting because the sound or shape of the word is actually irrelevant to any point being made. Choose your own words, or adopt the words that are already used to describe the concepts. I chose the latter because it’s easier, but if you have a major qualm with the words I’m unbothered if we choose different ones.
