      I said “presumably” because I figured it wasn’t a sure bet, not because I required it to be true for my point. Support for the Soviet Union is higher among older generations, while KPRF membership is surging even among younger people. Again, the CPC has 96 million members, and working class orgs tend to be filled with those that work! Who woulda thought?

      Again, though, you just have this entirely unearned smugness, and no actual point to back it up other than personally knowing Marxists in their 20s. That isn’t a substitute for data and statistics, if you simply extrapolate your personal anecdotes for everything and refuse to believe hard data, then going through life must be a nightmare.

      Everything you have said is presumptuous. It;s your signature temperature.

        The only thing I presumed was that you were western, as you had a viewpoint very common to westerners. Everything else was based on reality. Or are you trying to say, for example, that the CPC doesn’t have 100.4 million members as of 2024?
