I feel like anti-intelectualism has won. People can be given free audiobooks, the physical book, etc but they refuse to read because they view reading theory as bad or some bullshit. I have a friend and she thinks “its posh” to read theory. It seems like everyone has fallen for the propaganda that the only people who read theory are rich white college students. It fucking pisses me off.
This is why free university and social sciences are important too. It’s great to have electric car and supra conducting magnet, but we also need people to think about classism, history, sexism and all the rest
