Like I won’t say that absolutely everything about the USA was bad, necessarily, and I of course have my own biases at play here… But the point sparing the details is really just like, I’ve spent the past month thinking practically every day about how every single US-based communist really must be working in incredibly trying circumstances, if even just visiting had me feeling lethargic and kinda wanting to go home within a week. Now that I’m back home again, that time in the USA is already starting to feel like a strange dream again.
So, uhh, what are your secrets, basically? Like I’m sure that all the nonsense of the USA feels like less of a burden to put up with if you grew up with it and have spent little to no time in other parts of the world, but still. I honestly do not think I could live in the USA until it is decolonized, but when that happens, it wouldn’t be called the USA anymore, anyways.
No secret except seeing beyond the lifetime of propaganda that gets blared at you so constantly and reinforced from the all sides. Once that happens you either have to do something to change things, or you check out of politics completely, or you go insane.
But with neoliberalism triumphant pretty much everywhere and reaction in ascendance in much of the world, it’s tough out there worldwide.
This so much. Really have no idea where in the world it’s supposed to be better (don’t say China)
is it because of the language barrier?
