I grew up w/ a history of family members who reacted to the barbarity of hundreds of years of colonial extraction by becoming either communists or right-wing nationalists. my socialism is not informed by yuppie adventurism but by the brutality inflicted on my homeland.
that I grew up among generations of community/family members/friends/ who actually lived through variations of these ideas before? And have also lived for various periods of time in Europe (and respect and want to adopt aspects of their welfare systems in California?)
