It hit me today that western institutions and people will look you dead in the eye and tell you that socialism, an extremely popular ideology used by many prominent anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, liberation movements across the Global South, is awful. Like, they get away with calling those who they oppress stupid and uneducated without any repercussions.

People just stop and go, "hmm, I wonder if these guys who are striving for actual freedom and liberation for their people have a point. No! I, the person benefitting from their oppression, must obviously know better than these dirty poors when it comes to their political affairs and oppression! They are just inferior, not in a racist way though, I swear guys!

There is a reason the west does everything in its power to suppress it. There is a reason they are willing to sacrifice thousands for a war in a country that has nothing to do with them. There is a reason they will starve and slaughter those people. They know socialism, they know that it’s dangerous for their greedy oily paws. Socialism is the proces of humanity stepping into a new era of peace and progress, a human future. Socialism is liberation. It forces the worst actions out of the bourgeoisie for a reason.
