Which is exactly why I think it's a bad thing that this is happening now. If this happened because they represented a threat in the order of the US military then it'd be a good thing, they'd join the communists. But the fact that it's just happening as a random action to pander to chuds is, in my estimation, an unforced W for American empire and the rare accidental strategic good move, denying the enemy (us!) a valuable advantage in the future.
There is no outlet to absorb these people though. They just go back to capitalism rather than joining the bolsheviks
Not en masse no, and I think developing the capacity to do so is gonna be an increasingly good bet as things get more tense, fractious and doomy
