You gain the power to convert people's convictions to communism within a 10 meter radius of yourself. How do you use (or why not) these newly aquired powers? : comradeship

Realtalk. Was in a bar talking to a guy who has the ear of the prim minister of Singapore. Topic was of course neolib economic policy. He recommended zero taxes to avoid capital flight, means tested UBI and paying politicians more. 'a rising tide lifts all boats' I returned with examples of how the opposite has happened, with no regulations and taxes we see the social stratification and poverty explode, how China must be doing something right with their reduction of poverty not to mention expansion of high speed rail and solar power

Fight with the truth folks. Facts are on our side.

If cops instantly swapped from cop to communist I see a glorious picture in my mind where they burst into tears, pull out their service weapons, shoot all their nearby fellow cops and once they're alone they shove the barrel in their own mouth

I can totally sympathize with that scenario, but I'd rather that they recruit more of each other and join me.

Parent-teacher night just got a whole lot more interesting at the suburban school I teach at. Now I can finally teach dialectics to elementary students. If I can use it selectively, I’d like to not convert Tanner’s parents because it would be funny.

But do convert Tanner.

I think for the most part you wouldn’t have to use the conversion powers on children. They’ll be much better comrades if the people who loved them modeled empathy and camaraderie.

Therefore, Tanner would absolutely need to be converted.

Attend an AIPAC convention.

First, I'm going into my own office on the way to the airport for a few flights. Everyone in economy is getting it. Then when I get home I'm getting a part time job as a delivery driver to commercial buildings in major cities and taking liberties visiting every floor as I drop off the noodles. On the way, if I get stuck in traffic, I'm treating my vexed driver comrades to some enlightenment. On the weekends, I'm going to the people: soccer matches, protests.

The only fuckers I'm not using this on are the CEOs, bankers, directors, etc. I want them to wonder what the fuck is happening and I don't want to create hundreds of petite bourgeois trots.

Fuck the bullshit I'm goin to the O, getting every single driller who looks my way, and we're goin to DC.

I could head to some strip clubs, and create a coalition of armed sex workers.

Is it a passive or active ability?

Does the effect wear off if they leave your radius? Or is the effect permanent?

If it’s permanent, then I would spend all the money I have traveling to massive concerts, sports stadiums, and events. Then spend the entire time running around.

Maybe giving trump some communist powers wouldn’t be so bad?

I don’t care if he became the worlds most devout Marxist-Leninist-Maoist; he is a child rapist.

Permanent... I was originally meant to add a twist to the power: "Every person you convert gets cancer" but my subconscious abstained from it idk.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

...and my earlier answer to your question was "indiscriminately".

I'm glad you didn't add the twist lol.

I'll just tour around my city. 😏
