Mostly I just met people. I saw the world. I listened to what people were saying about their situations.
It was always "I could do so much more in my life if I didn't have to do X" where X is some capitalist or reactionary bullshit reason.
I think the only skill anyone needs to be an leftist is to be willing and able to confront the world. Hear people out. Tie the things you hear together. It's all right there you just have to be willing to do it and to trust that people generally understand their own situations
