The US Empire is absolutely the biggest obstacle for Socialism and Communism globally, and it is becoming more obvious that it is on its way to collapse.

american here. people always say “communism doesn’t work.” but it’s never been tried without US interference afaik. capitalism isn’t working too good for us over here rn, either.

USian here, Communism works exceptionally well considering constant Imperial siege from the US empire. It's pretty clear to me that it's the way forward, without Imperialist influence (like brutal sanctions and bombings) AES countries would have even better metrics, when they already have better metrics compared to Capitalist countries of similar development.
