OP is basically a “pick me” move where you’re so desperate for approval from the “in” group despite them completely rejecting your values and value, but whose acceptance you’ve been socialised to believe you should dedicate your life to getting.
You’re going to be waiting a long long time (or else get used as a token or “one of the good ones” before they discard you back in the reject pile for not fitting in their exclusionary exploitative systems).
Have some fucking pride in your convictions, opposing capitalism and the status quo are nothing to be ashamed of, but the exact opposite.
in the US we’re suffering from a century of anti-communist (pro-capitalist, pro-industrialist, pro-imperialist) propaganda willfully cultivated by our plutocratic oligarchs and disseminated by our education system.
So communist and socialist are words of contempt, despite what they actually mean.

So I get it.
What a sandwich of a comment. Agreeable point - what a tremendous assumption filled leap - agreeable point. I am reeling.
