So, I'm currently living in Japan and, the place I am is full of either right wing people or "don't care about politics" people. Is there any community in Japan for lefties?

Also, have a nice day comrades. Times are difficult now, so take care of your mental health and keep fighting!

    i still don't understand why they were against the ussr and now against most aes countries

    Sorry if I'm speaking out of place, by context clues I assume that you're referring to the Communist Party of Japan. Their history and reasoning is pretty well documented in their own webpage. They essentially claim that Lenin misconstrued Marxism and revolution, and claim that revolution and socialism can be made without violence. Personally, I get the impression that they were neutered by the state decades ago, and that's all that they are now. They are essentially a deformed Kautskyite party.
