The title. I messaged the Chinese government. I don't care if I'm silly, but a commune for immigrant communists which would help with language learning and possibly even fully independent life in said society if language gets mastered adequately is a legitimate need I feel overlooked in really dehumanizing ways. Just because someone didn't have the privilege to get a sought-after dyploma doesn't mean they have to die funding fascism with their labour. Not having such a sought-after dyploma doesn't mean you will be a drag upon the society. It's a really dehumanizing narrative. Besides, you can even get further education once you move and become a super productive member of a socialist country.

I'm gonna look into contact to Cuban gov and NK govs. Not sure if reaching out to the Vietnamese gov makes sense, based on the comments I saw saying the population itself wasn't communist, but maybe I've misread or fell for misinformation.

Perhaps it will all amount to nothing, which is what I expect, but the least I can do in life is try. Maybe the stars align and I can help comrades escape fascism.

    I sympathise with your position, but I need to throw a contrary perspective in here.

    China hasn't fully recovered from the century of humiliation. Taiwan and Hong Kong aren't healing scars, they're open wounds. Western governments are trying their damndest to open new ones in Xinjiang, Inner Mongolia and Tibet.

    How does it look to the Chinese comrades when Western comrades, instead of agitating their governments to leave China alone, abandon the revolutionary cause in their countries and ask for land in China? I mean we can call it a commune but it's essentially land that belongs to the Chinese people carved out as a living space for foreigners.

    Maybe the better request would have been "Yours is looking good, help me with mine?" instead of "yours is looking good, give me some of it?"

    Anyway, I think your best bet if you want to press on with it is to find your nearest Confucius Institute and mail them or even drop in. One if the few remaining needs China has of foreigners is helping to build and safeguard community abroad.

      I have no nation. I don't control a government. I find it extremely naive to believe you may "fix" the west. It's full of fascists and the population is nearly entirely complicit. All you do by continuing to spend time here is helping the fascists by being a clog funding their aparatus. If you get close to a semblance of having an impact, they **will **assassinate you, as proven many times over. I tried being politically active only to discover how deeply fascism runs in everyday people's minds. I'm an extremely easy to identify minority wherever I go, including being an immigrant. I have no power and I see there's no tide of change. I'm not even a pessimist, I consider myself an optimist. I hope for a multipolar world. Fascists won't disappear in the west. Best I can do is hope I can escape.

        You might as well be describing the founding members of the CPC on a boat on Nanhu Lake 100 years ago.

        Or many of the people in this community, for that matter.
