My friends and I are all in our early 20s, most finishing/ out of college. A few years ago they were all liberals who either turned their nose up at the word socialism or were "apolitical".

Now, having been through a pandemic, living through a housing crisis, working in minimum wage jobs, witnessing the rise of European fascism and seeing the sheer disrespect capitalists have for us, all of them, without exception, have become or are becoming leftists. I don't even talk about politics that much with them, although they know I'm a communist. They have all voiced dissatisfaction with capitalism and named capitalism directly as the cause of their problems. Some of them openly call themselves socialist. None of them have any faith in liberals.

My main political issue now is to get them to become active in politics. I've encouraged them to join workers and tenants unions and will do that more every time I'm drunk. I try to get them to pro-Palestinian protests. I have high hopes that within a few years, I will successfully convert most of them to communism

    I believe undocumented immigrants should be deported to a city that is the US should try to massively develop right across the border in Mexico that is built for mainly cycling and at the edge of the city have an airport and a train station. I believe the US should annex all their territories as states.

    I suppose you might be a bit of a American chauvinist...
