Hey ya’all, slowly adding chips to the Marxist Leninist pursuit side of my life and I want to do more than just fall down the infinite rabbithole of education or radicalize people on the internet. I want to join an org near where I live, North Carolina USA.
Both before I became a communist and even to this day I was considering the DSA. I get that in many ways they have been all vut enrirely co-opted into the Democrat’s left wing and even their origins speak volumes, however I believe infiltration is valuable and surely I could radicalize a few or perhaps even snag the chapter if my dice rolled well. I’ve also heard that it’s basically the easiest way to meet anybody who’s even remotely leftist in your area, and besides being great for radicalization I’d also like to establish contacts as there are militant fascists cults only miles away from us and collapse of America always seems to be looming over the horizon and, ya know, strength in numbers.
I’ve also considered the CPUSA. I’ve heard very little about them but opinions seem to be mixed. I was briefly a Trotskyist and joined the IMT, which went from awesome to wildly disappointing in a mere week, so I’m very wary of newspaper-selling-obsessed oldheads; I don’t know if my worry that CPUSA falls into that same genre is warranted or not.
I’ve thought about saying f it and starting my own organization as I believe I have some fresh ideas but as I stand in my life right now I am entirely isolated, swamped and clout-repellant so it seems wiser to slowly step into it and rub a few shoulders before I try and self-publish a 400 page manifesto.
But yeah, anyways, what do ya’all think? Any and all information is greatly appreciated.
Smart idea.
I’ve recently dreamed about moving to China but besides being nigh impossible (I’m useless on paper and have no connections), I’ve kind of decided that my place is here. It sounds corny but it’s my home, I love the food the places the culture (get your laughs out of the way lol), I genuinely have no desire to live elsewhere just for this shithole to improve. I am optimistic for the future of the planet and humanity in general but I’m not stupid and I know America could very well be a one-of-a-kind hell-on-earth in a few decades, so maybe I’m being naiive or lazy or Main Character Syndrome or I have a deathwish, but barring a change of heart or extraordinary circumstances (I can’t, of course, 100% predict my behavior in such dire times) I might stick it here.
If you end up staying, keep in mind not only fascist cults but climate change and what a floundering US State would want to keep its claws on. Around Indiana is supposed to be one of the projected least affected regions.
I might extended stay out of spite or convenience. I was born here, I shouldn’t have to leave just because of these pigs. They are the ones in the wrong.
And of course as a priveleged white USA’an I have more of a duty than anyone else to deal with the problem that my country is.
But if it’s a sinking ship then we all gotta just get out before it’s too late.
