What is your point if not to say that no value judgment ("better than") can be made against those sections of the masses with backwards views ("Most of them are not marxists, so are wrong about a lot of things")? You're not better than a fascist, simply because the masses include fascists? That's tailism my friend
Ok, I see the issue, I think we see the words "consider yourself better than" differently
To me thinking yourself better than someone is less about ideology and views and more something inherent, as in "This person is lesser because they believe in the wrong god, or worship the same god wrong"
I apologize for my tone earlier
Gotcha. I definitely see where you're coming from better now. I withdraw my accusation of tailism
