We love ourselves too often and need reach out much more often. It is a social responsibility and it effects the environment also.
Communist Threat is not based on ungrounded imagined information: Tony Seruga @TonySeruga · Feb 15 GPS—Communist Campus Hunt These campuses have the largest concentration of openly communist or explicitly Marxist individuals regularly attending meetings and protests across the U.S. Harvard University – Active chapters of the Young Democratic Socialists of America (YDSA), Socialist Alternative, and multiple Marxist reading circles connected to faculty sympathetic to “critical theory.” Columbia University – Long-standing ties to radical left organizing since the 1960s; many NYC communist groups recruit directly here. The campus functions as a hub for socialist mobilization in Manhattan. New York University (NYU) – Similar scene; more performance-art-oriented in their communist expression, but ideologically aligned. University of Chicago – A paradoxical stronghold, with a deeply capitalist econ history but a major leftist activist bloc among humanities students and grad workers. UC Berkeley – The original “People’s Park” campus. Still one of the top communist strongholds, with active Marxist-Leninist, Maoist, and anarchist groups. UCLA – Less radical but has a steady Marxist academic core in its sociology and gender studies departments. University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) – Hotbed of union-linked Marxism and anti-capitalist student organizing. University of Wisconsin–Madison – Traditional “labor-campus” Marxism; practically part of state culture. University of Washington – Intersection of DSA, anarchist organizing, and far-left climate action. Portland State University – Known for hosting explicitly Maoist and anarchist student groups; significant Antifa overlap. University of North Carolina–Chapel Hill – Deeply activist, student-faculty links to left-wing organizing. University of Pittsburgh / Carnegie Mellon – Tied into organized labor and anticapitalist infrastructure. SUNY Binghamton – Historically had open communist clubs; still active YDSA and Maoist-affiliated presence. Additionally: Oberlin College Reed College Wesleyan University Bennington College
It's not that every DEI advocate at Harvard/MIT descends from Boston Brahmins (far from it—the faculty and admin have diversified), but the institutions themselves carry that legacy baggage. The result is a perceived double standard: scrutinize and essentialize certain "privileged" groups (especially when they're minorities like upper-caste Hindus in the U.S.) while the homegrown elite class sails on with relatively little analogous critique.Many see this as a microcosm of broader elite hypocrisy in progressive spaces—using moralized frameworks to challenge hierarchies elsewhere, but not fully reckoning with their own. Whether that's "ugly" depends on perspective, but the parallel is hard to miss once you connect the dots.
Let's be honest, good people can sleep with a good life while bad people secretly get worse and worse. It's amazing that we are still here on earth considering this. We were often caught off guard, didn't have a proper read on a situation, and came close to the end of history worth living.
