    At the beginning of this conflict, I was a western ib all the same and though I didn’t speak about it online, I supported Ukraine.

    Similar thing. Being apolitical played a bad joke on me. Though even then I did not have hatred towards the Russian people, despite being absolutely carpet-bombed with propaganda. But then I started to see inconsistencies and - surprise! - contradictions. And then the big one dropped - in mid-2022 I realized it was the West who sabotaged the peace talks. I started digging. All in all, these material conditions radicalized me into becoming a communist.

    We are the most propagandized people on the planet

    That’s no coincidence and you know it. In more ways than one the empire depends on the bubble. Hate your enemies but respect them - the US is unmatched when it comes to lies, projection and propaganda - in general. It’s great that you punched through all of it - it strengthens my revolutionary optimism even more. Keep your head up, comrade!
