"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

This is on me, as you're absolutely correct. I threw an ironic shit post reply to what I assumed was a shitposty channel given the quality of the 'meme' and text ("chat").
Its even worse on my part, with an allusion to violence for no other reason than to perpetuate the woodchipper archetype.
When the motive is profit, or to cement profit's interests through collusion with all arms of capital through "think tanks" and boards, the political scientist is indeed a force for ill. Naturally, it need not be if the interest is in the betterment of the proletariat and the common folk, as demonstrated through scientific socialism which is where the irony was intended to be focused.
Thanks for clarifying your meaning. I appreciate it.
I'm new and learning, thank you for your patience!
