Communism is like an eldrich abomination that shows you the truth of the universe and drives you mad from the revelation

I find it hard to bring people to communism because telling them the truth of our system most often leads them to a doom spiral where fighting back against capitalism seems impossible and that the world is fucked. I feel bad because I feel like all it does is make people depressed. It's too much. People are tired and burnt out from daily life too much to handle it.
—Carlo Cafiero, Summary of Marx's Capital
Me starting fights pretty much anywhere with pretty much anyone when I accuse them of being a bootlicker for accepting or even defending the violence of capitalism.
Also I strongly dislike when people say "Oh this is a little thing it doesn't matter why do you care about this?" as though the small injustices don't mount or aren't built on the same legal justifications as the great injustices. In this case it was a "just a little thing", an abusive clause in an EULA that only became enforceable because Gorsuch and the rest of the clown show made a ruling to bust unions. "This doesn't matter it's not impotant it's just a little thing touch grass" Like no, this is important, it does matter, because the same court decision that lets this game company force you to accept a bad deal to play is also used as a ruinous union busting tool. There are no big or small issues, they're all tied in to the same system and recognizing that continuity is important to understanding how the system works.
