Communism is like an eldrich abomination that shows you the truth of the universe and drives you mad from the revelation

I find it hard to bring people to communism because telling them the truth of our system most often leads them to a doom spiral where fighting back against capitalism seems impossible and that the world is fucked. I feel bad because I feel like all it does is make people depressed. It's too much. People are tired and burnt out from daily life too much to handle it.
This was part of the thesis many of the continental philosophers came up with. Their solution was essentially philisophical Blanquism, under the thought that you makenit not worth the effort for anyone else. Which is why it's fucking impossible to understand what Althussier is going on about.
