How can i help?
Is there something i can do to help the revolutionary cause as a teen? Not much probably but still i wanna do something
Learn as much as you can. Insert Marxist talking points into everyday conversation to try and radicalize more people. Eventually join an org.
Just, try to be a good person and to learn as much as you can. Any revolution will need doctors, engineers, agricultural scientists. Keep the faith and be a good example to those around you.
+1 to joining a youth organization. That's the single best thing you can do. As individuals we're weak, ineffectual and alone. Only by joining the collective bodies of the organized working class can we really aid the cause and develop as communist personalities.
Depending on where you live you can also try organizing your school if you're still going. I have plenty of young comrades that joined by people organizing their schools and student bodies.
Depending on where you live there might be a communist youth organization like the YCL.
I'll look into it!
Study and play to your strengths. If you're someone people lean on for help, help them understand the real causes of their misery. If you're someone who is good at math, perhaps create propaganda which demonstrates the math of capitalism and socialism. If you're someone who is popular perhaps educate your peers. Etc...
You are young and likely still requiring essential education and to develop experience. The job of the youth is always learn and socialize no matter what form society takes. Simply apply Marxism to this paradigm 👍
Some ideas
-
Find a mutual aid organization to dedicate some time to
-
Start a leftist book club/study group. I say leftist because even as a M-L, it's still good to be inclusive of anarchists and other tendencies. We gotta work on healing these divisions.
-
Make M-L agitprop/social media content.
-
Collectivist action is preferred. Political indtigation like dropping banner or etc is also great, though.
Not sure if this is what you mean, or whether you're in the US, but "On Tyranny" by Tim Snyder is a very short, objectively researched guidebook on concrete things that a person can do, if they live in a society that's in danger of going from democracy to fascism.
It's based on spreading democracy, not communism, but if the current version of the US right wing gets control in a big way it definitely won't make things better for the communists.
