    Thank you! It seems I read somewhere he had distanced himself from socialism, which disappointed me, but it’s possible it was someone else or Western aligned MSM. I did read here that he’s gracious to Mao, which seemed odd if he had distanced himself.

    I’m glad he’s socialist. My heart is a little brighter, now.

      Well, not sure if that the distancing is true but I have several videos where he actively studies theory from the Communist Youth that participate in the exchange programs with China. He is very active in learning.

      Adding to that, the video from Tankie Tube that I shared is from a month ago.

        That’s so great, I really wish I can find a way to a socialist state. Even CPUSA has shuttered their offices, my friend thinks probably from lack of donations, which isn’t surprising considering anyone in the area is terrified of socialism, even if they actually agree with socialist ideas like nationalizing banks and utilities, taxing the wealthy proportionately, and using the money for healthcare, housing, food, water, and transit. A few very poor are amenable but the $20 fee up until now bought a week’s worth of cheap protein, rice, and milk for a person, maybe two, but after my last shopping trip, that’s probably half that. Jobs are gone too.
