          just sat thru the world’s fucking worst china/ussr relations class ever where we were all expected to talk about specific topics we were given. absolute bangers i suffered through: “mao is soooo vain evil evil” “mao and stalin were from same generation of oppressive politicians and state terror” “watch death of stalin” so. i really want to talk about school and anticommunism and not going fucking craΩy for a bit, give me a while, i’ll talk about my thoughts and advice to survive. is htis the worst situation in the world rn? no, but it’s certainly overwhelming and has terrorized my emotions and you dont have a choice as a child to not be in this situation often so i just wnana tlak about it hehhehehheheh

              yes this is how it feels almost every day. it is deeply deeply exhausting because both there’s a asynchronicity between my peers my teachers and i, but also because if this is what i’m expected to learn and parrot to ‘succeed’ professionally or in any case literally survive until i am legally a person (and even then i’m spit out into workforce and like, well, that’s also a horror in its own right) and it’s very very gruesome feeling, it enrages you, it festers something in your heart you cannot express lest you be punished by all the powers that be. in my case there are very little sympathetic people (classmates or otherwise) around me and seeing as that my grades suffer immensely it’s like, aw, fuck are we doing here anyway?? and again, this is just undercutting the severe jarring feeling misinformation being repeated in your School elicits.hang in there friend, though, it’s been really comforting to me to know ppl my age (even if we’re not in identical situations) struggle with this, but also particularly with having ML tendencies .

                i agree with literally everything you said I see my classmates and all that they are is Money. They embody the archetype of the “Cool American Fratboy”: Drugs, Sex, Money.

                my existence as a trans girl is both misunderstood and prohibited in a world in which my i cannot speak or do anything without proper permissions and being careful of every action i take; unlike my classmates: prime example of the efficiency of capitalist, united states propaganda taking hold and ruining all life. At least i’ve been able to find someone irl that agrees with my points and sees the infinite cruelty of this horrible system. The People can only unite if all people are educated on the nature of their condition. Death to the United States.

                  death to usamerikkka. and yeah, hang in there, it’s nice uve found company to talk about this with irl + again i totally resonate again with the unending frustration (had an episode actually just yesterday on this exact topic) transmisogyny is another terrible oppressive system of itself (and ive seen a few good writers who do analysis of it on materialist terms as well)

            My history teacher is pretty vocally anti-trump, but bought the anti-communist kool-aid hard. I was cringing through her entire lecture about how the soviet union hated religion and people getting together to oppose the government, and the cold war unit is just getting started…

      Feel bad for you comrade.

      It’s not helpful, but I’ll just say you have one Iranian friend online who thinks your group mates should enlist. Hopefully they get liberated by an IRGC Fatah Missle.
