i actually have no clue how you come away with that interpretation
paulo freire pedagogy of the oppressed @ArticulateThat • 1h ago This book is contradictory so far. To stop being oppressed you need to become an oppressor to the oppressed? Oppressors dehumanize those who they oppress so the oppressed need to dehumanize their oppressors to be free? The problem is so big that you need one big collectivists mindset of solidarity to solve the problem otherwise the problem of oppressed and oppressor will never be solved? Steipping oneself of individuality to become one with a bunch of other people is more dehumanizing than recognizing yourself your strengths and weaknesses is more humanizing then stripping oneself of that. While i agree there are strength in numbers the individual strengths are what makes those numbers powerful
