communal farming is one? i dunno, gulag therapist and equipment procurement sound very much like funny euphemisms for certain party work. and also so what? work is work, so long as its useful

Stalinist cosplay answer: Id like to be a propagandist after the revolution.

i want to talk about /r/TimeToGo/

warning, this is a sub dedicated to people talking about killing themselves.

I post this because every post in the subreddit has a commonality. A strong dissillusion with society, with extreme unbridled capitalism and how it has destroyed are minds.

people are killing themselves to escape capitalism

I don't think most veteran suicide is about trauma.

it's about returning from a socialist system to capitalism

Agreed unironically. I wasn't even in very long and it was jarring to go from having at least a little commonality with anyone else in a uniform, and having people you could turn to for help. Then you go back into the wild and except for family its every man for himself
