I think this perspective doesn't get enough credit in this community sometimes. I have my doomer days for sure, but at the same time I see the struggles of people around me, and I know that if they were better informed that they would probably be communists.
On some level, the absolute best thing you can do is just treat other people like humans and believe them when they say they're struggling. If people who self-identify as communists are partaking in society and treating other people like humans, then That keeps us grounded and reminds us what we're fighting for. It also slowly teaches people that communists are actually good people.
