Sometimes I wonder if woke up from being apolitical too late. Like, the empire is dying, climate crises etc. etc. and I had barely any time to get organized and stuff since I only got into Communism about 7 months ago.
Frankly, I’m happy that I got the chance to at least see the world as it is without so much baggage from a cult or from liberalism. Certainly, I’m not an isolated case.
So, I have hope that humanity will choose Socialism over Barbarism.
We will win this shit.

I wanted to post that photo of a parent helping their child hold the flag of the USSR but I didn’t find it.
I like to think that we are in a time of changing material conditions. It feels like this year has been monumentous with everything that’s happening. Either that, or I’m seeing things from a far different perspective than a year ago.
I’m a recent convert too, so I thoght I’d give my thoughts on this.
I feel like this year is mostly a culmination of everything that happened from 2020 onwards. Of course, a Marxist would know that the issue is capitalism but the average person is in constant state of “wtf happened.” I know I did.
I don’t know if it’s the same for you, but I think I would’ve become a Marxist at any time from 2020 to 2025 if I had proper education. (Especially education on evolution lol). I can recall so many close calls.
Anyways, the future is bright. And hot as well, living next to the Equator line during climate change sucks.
