I cant stand living in this fake-wannabe democracy. I feel so lonely, nobody shares my views and everytime i try to educate them they mock and ridicule me to oblivion. Western europe truly is a hopeless pile of garbage. Thanks to the social democracies (nice move bourgeois pigs) people dont see the need to overthrow the capitalists when they are already fed the absolute bare minimum (free eduction and healthcare) by them while still being significantly poorer than the capitalists who are still fucking up our economy and politics. People are so liberal here, its like someone made a concentrate of Liberalism and spoon fed it to every-single person from man, woman to baby. *uh but freedome but muh democricuh * i cant hear it anymore. Its not enough that my family is constantly argueing about the shit in ukraine while im just sitting there having to listen 24/7 to “The russians were always authoritarian burglars, thats just their nature” and “Russia needs to be bombed its the only solution”. Oh pls just somebody, China perhaps come and liberate the people from the western hegemony. The west needs to fall and when it does while watch with joy.

ps. Sorry for the outburst here but i really needed to get that out of me

    I’ve found that my friends are slightly open to my beliefs, and won’t ridicule me since they think I’m just in it for the memes. It’s a slow process feeding them theory, but I have hope. And yeah, it gets really stressful in the west sometimes. Just remember that the west is in decline, and that communism is inevitable.

    Living in the west as an actual communist can feel so lonely and frustrating, just watching all around you as the people so close to you get programmed by capitalist propaganda, and you having absolutely nothing to do, especially when they are your parents. It feels like you’re isolated out on an island, even when living in western society.

    P.S why does this post already have 4 downvotes?

      Western libs can’t handle being hated, especially not by those outside the binary

    Here in the US, we don’t even have that bare minimum, and the propaganda is so insidious here, liberals who support the bare minimum are considered progressive. Our reactionaries would gladly stone people to death or burn them at the stake given half a chance. I feel your pain, but if I can find reasonable people and comrades here, you will too, I am sure of it. Stay strong and stay safe, comrade.

    That’s why I’m so glad to have found everyone here. It’s quickly become my little spot of sanity. The Ukraine war really did a number on me. Even the most reasonable people I knew were in full on genocide mode. You are far from alone, and I think we all feel the same way.

    I love each and every one of you, and thank you so much for having me as your comrade!
