Considering this guy was not traditionally left leaning…

From his online footprint it seems like Luigi did not meet the mold many would have expected of a left wing revolutionary. Also considering I have been seeing a lot of “the right looks for allies, the left looks for rats”, I created a new group r/ClassConscious . It’s supposed to be a thread where we can share ideas/memes with people of different political beliefs to continue to solidify the idea of class consciousness in the minds of people who might just be waking up to it. Once people realize that one kind of oppression is wrong, they might realize that other types are wrong too (or at least that’s the idea). I can’t think of a better page to ask for help than the BtB audience. Being around here a while it seems like most people take a rational approach to the problems we face. I am not a content creator or very witty, or all that good at knowing what will grab people’s attention. So I ask you all to help me, with posting and bringing attention to the staggering wealth gap that has developed in our societies. It’s not something that matters just to the left… between Luigi and the elons bullshit, I think this has a fighting chance.

Please post anything you think will appeal to those not normally thinking about r/ClassConscious (ness) in the same way.

Just joined. I have a bunch of anti-capitalist memes, is that what you’re looking for? Or more substantive content that can actually accomplish something?

Both. But I’m trying to make this inclusive, so more content that can reach a broader base and not just like “socialism good”. I’m trying to highlight the ways mega corporations extract from everyone, and that many of the culture wars are manufactured outrage. It’s going to be difficult cause I’m on the left, and that will obviously leak out in whatever I post, but I’m reaching out to other folks to try and bring in different viewpoints
