How do people raise their kids communist? (hexbear.net)

Especially in imperial countries where the kids have to deliberately go along with many wrong history lessons?

I don't have kids, Matt Christman having one just makes me wonder how he and other Communist parents do it.

While you're right about Marxism being scientific, and not based in emotion, I think it's important to ask, "Why would Marx care about any of this shit to develop such theory in the first place?" And I think any reasoning that didn't somehow arrive at some conclusion that included empathy would be erroneous. I think that's also true when asked about why any communist is a communist.
