Slightly tangential, but “re-education” is one of those thought terminating cliches that if you stop and think about for more than a second, makes complete sense in a lot of scenarios. If there’s a population or sub-population that overwhelmingly holds racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, and/or classist views, then yeah they need some educating. And if I’ve got to sit in the DMV for a couple hours every few years just to renew an ID, they can sit through an hour presentation on why being a bigot is a problem.
i know it’s not what you meant, but i love the idea that After the Revolution we’ll send the petty bourgeoisie to till the soil, but the DMV will still exist largely unchanged.

Garbage still needs to be collected, still need to make sure people know what the road signs are.
sorry, i’m having a fit of anarchism, you sound like a crazy person to me
Instead we get liberal diversity modules lmao it’s not even training they’re ten minute interactive modules that most companies are required to do
And you’d think recognizing microagressions means you’ve solved racism. Really irritates me
Re-education takes longer than an hour, surely.
