I don't know how many others do too, but I think that's some pretty bloomer shit to be able to believe you'll be around for communism. What can it hurt to believe we're closer to it than we think?
I mean if folks don't believe it's going to happen, they might not feel like putting in extra work. But if it's around the corner, we can do little steps in our lives to make things better faster.
i think everyone here would be delighted with any post-capitalist society. just seeing how much the USSR and the PRC achieved in half a century, imagine a proletarian State in the imperial core for instance. we could achieve so much. and i don't even mean it in a chauvinist way, i mean as a species.
