Last Friday, early in the morning, I was looking at Vladimir Lenin's Wikipedia page.
I noticed that there was a voice sample in his infobox (link above). In it, he talks about how there is a better world than under capitalism (it's about two minutes long). This was said in 1919. More than 100 years later, that's still right.
Afterwards, I started to cry. I mean, those issues are still prevalent and perhaps have gotten worse. I also admit that I had done some drinking beforehand.
Its cheesy, but the dream of the USSR still lives on in our hearts. There are still places in this world where the people were able to stand up against the imperialists and fascists and make a little part of it better just a little better, like Cuba and Vietnam or Chipapas or Kerala. A better world is possible and its worth fighting for.

The USSR still exists, it's just currently at zero members
Amerikkka is closer to collapse now than at any point during Lenin's lifetime. It is up to us what the end will look like, but it will end.
I get like this too comrade. We are part of a long history of people who dared to believe in and build a better world. Che said “If you tremble with indignation at every injustice then you are a comrade of mine.” which speaks to this. We've got immense love and rage in our hearts and they're inseparable. It's healthy to have these feelings. It means you believe in humanity in the midst of a system that would like nothing more than to reduce us to commodities, to strip us of our hopes, feelings, and passions and turn us into soulless capital.
