Ok, I see what you're saying. My bad. I just went into knee-jerk mode when I read that because so much of the "spreading ideas to educate the masses" rhetoric I've heard throughout the years includes some huge, & faulty, assumptions about some grand formula for revolution. Sharing ideas is pretty important to me, I mean why else would some of us write zines, books, articles, report backs or comments on websites if we didn't find those things helpful for our own personal growth? I just wrongfully assumed that "educating the proles" was where you were coming from, too.
