At the same time, I've been seeing this groundswell lately, been seeing more communists irl. It feels similar to ten years ago, when "socialist" was just beginning to have it's moment as a popular, acceptable label (among the disempowered majority of people if not the news media) . It feels like maybe we're about to hit that point with "communist".
It feels like they're trying to do the reactionary backlash early to prevent it from coming in the first place.
On the one hand, it's terrifying. I've got a nice life relatively, a family, and people who need me, I don't want to be arrested or killed for thought crimes or organizing a peaceful protest or filming an ICE agent. On the other hand, it means they're scared, and I'm not gonna lie, that gives me quite a bit of satisfaction.
