Do you think that you can help bring about the revolution or do you just want a minor less risky role? What kind of role can you participate on and die with a smile in your death bed when you think about how you lived your life?

If I don't end up a deadweight or a counterrevolutionary, that'll be good enough for me.

Well… those are pretty low aspiration, ngl 😅. What makes you feel that you would be any of those 2 things, comrade?

I'm a very materially comfortable first-worlder. I have a lot to lose from the immiseration of my class that would materially put my skin in the game, as opposed to simply relying on some sense of morality to carry me. I'm worried I might be compromised; although I suppose recognizing this already puts me ahead of many so-called leftists in the Great Satan.
