So far I’ve got 0 matches in a week, whereas without “communism will win” I would be getting 1-2 per day.

Idk how I feel about it. I’m getting old, getting lonely, and sometimes just chatting with someone new, even if they end up sucking after a week or two, is enough to give me hope that I’ll find someone. On the flip side I feel like being more upfront would lead to less, but more meaningful interactions. But today, at this moment, I feel a deep loneliness and sadness that I haven’t felt in a very long time.

Fuckin hell. The destruction of the social fabric in capitalist societies fuckin sucks. Just wanna find a cool life-mate to spend my days with.

:deeper-sadness:

Yeah, I know there’s a bazillion other things that are magnitudes more important than this right now, just needed to vent.

    I think both approaches can work. My wife was working class poor and had zero involvement or interest in politics. But she's compassionate, honest, etc etc.

    She's slowly learning bits and pieces and moving farther left. For example, convincing her that cops are bad took a long time. It rattled one of the foundational beliefs she'd been raised with and made her question some of her own experiences. But she's a wonderful partner and a wonderful person.
