What’s something low profile comrades say that communicate immediately that they know which side they fight for in the class struggle?

Example: if anyone in the wild speaks “material conditions”, or “bourgeois state”, out loud, I’m listening.

    Trans people that have come out. It isn’t anywhere near 100%, but they generally tend much farther left than the average person. I also have yet to meet a conservative trans person in real life (perhaps I’ve met some closeted ones, but I would have no way to know).

      Ugh, I had a trans coworker who was conservative. Had an AR-15 “to defend herself”, and was against non-binary people and immigrants. Joined the police as a volunteer, and was doxxed for hanging out with some white supremacists.

      I’m closeted to most but I still quote Lenin and say commie shit all the time. So anyone worth knowing would eventually learn I’m trans

      Pretty much only out myself to good friends and other trans people at this rate

      Favorite time when I outted myself was to this really nice girl at work that I’d eat with all the time and she looked like her brain was melting when I told her I was trans. Did make me feel powerful
