"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

"Telling people to read is ableist" is a terrible argument in the age of audiobooks, well made agitprop tiktoks and AI summaries (I don't condone the last one I'm just trying to make a point).
The only excuse is being blind, deaf and having no feeling in your fingers. Then I can believe it's ableist. But if you're on bsky then at least one of those isn't true.
It's a terrible argument in general because it's not targeting disabled people when people say to read. It's implied already. Disability can of course look very different on each person but anarchists are making it about themselves. I'm not saying the anarchists saying these things are not disabled themselves, they probably are, but they are also barking up the wrong tree.
The mod of marxistculture sub, bigblindmarx is legally blind themselves and they have built several Marxist Leninist communities that facilitate theory study. There was a few users on the old sub who are color blind. Their current username is quite_largeboi, they founded ModernSocialist.
