A coworker taped a picture of Marx on my office door, circa March 2019.

    People called me a communist for arguing for basic social welfare matters that quite literally make everyone better off, stuff like universal healthcare. I was literally making arguments within a capitalist framework, like, 'freeing up innovators to take risks,' or 'reducing the amount of unnecessary medical billing and insurance labor that could be repurposed to more productive uses,' and 'unburdening sma businesses with the cost of providing Healthcare for employees so they can effectively compete with bigger conglomerates.'.. You know, LIB shit.

    All the accusations of being a communist made me think that they MUST have been on to something if such easy fucking conclusions like that were communist. Jokes on them, now I'm actually a communist.
