I’m 52 and communism is a load of bullshit. Always has been.
I don't have kids, not very good with them as you can see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I was like OP though when I was 17 too, so coming back a bit older might work after reading through all the great resources provided in these comments
And as people have mentioned here, it can take until you're in your 40s for some to finally escape all the anticommunist propaganda they've been fed their whole lives in capitalist states.
Communism is for kids and people who refuse to know better. Period.
Lol some of us grew up in socialist households and still recognize the dangers and failures of communism every time it's been tried.
