I was making this and my friend asked what it was and I said “the emblem of the Communist Party of China.” And he said “Aren’t communists bad?-like Nazis or something?” I said “No, Communists are people who want a stateless and classless society, where everyone’s needs are met. And they have always been strongly opposed to fascists. In fact Stalin wanted to go war with the Nazis years before WWII started.” He said “you clearly know a lot about this.” I said “I read and listen to a lot about such things.”

It’s really nice when people whose default is anticommunist admit they don’t know anything about it.

    A lot of people who aren’t terminally online or plugged into cable news are pretty curious about communism and are willing to hear the other side when the topic comes up
