What's something low profile comrades say that communicate immediately that they know which side they fight for in the class struggle?

Example: if anyone in the wild speaks "material conditions", or "bourgeois state", out loud, I'm listening.

Honestly it’s difficult to tell. My friend is a huge China Stan and straight up told me that he’s a communist but I’m still not 100% positive.

Because I feel like he’s just a Chinese nationalist. He hasn’t referenced any theory or performed any class analysis. He just recites taking points like “landlord bad”.

I have a friend who's kinda like that, he says he's communist but also says that freelancers are bourgeois because "they don't need to exploit the proletariat to be the dominant class" ¯_(ツ)_/¯

A larper’s better than an anticommunist. Just talk about and share theory and he might become a real comrade.

I agree, but the entire situation is hilarious because he thinks I’m a liberal bourge.

Why don’t you just come out and say you’re a commie?

This guy flipped PS5’s while holding a six figure salary at a trust fund, managing marketing.

Like no ethical consumerism under capitalism and all but that’s a little excessive.

Wow. Would it be feasible in the foreseeable future to get him to use some of that on helping organizations and praxis?
