I agree.

The contrast in mindset between 1917's Bolshevik and today's socialist is very different, and I think it will play itself out differently.

In 1917, it was sold as a class struggle - there was no economic mobility to speak of. A serf would remain a serf for 95% of cases. They were told "You have nothing to lose" and it resonated with them.

However, today's youth are in opposite circumstances. They are the inheritors of several generations of prosperity. The heavy lifting was done before they were born - for the majority of youth, they see no value in hard work as they already live very privileged lives (to borrow a term) They are nihilistic because they can find no meaning in a world where everything is easy access and instantly available. They collectively have more economic mobility than any other previous group of people on planet Earth in recorded history, yet they feel this boredom with what they perceive as 'traditional society' that soon turns into contempt.

This is part of the reason why they are so susceptible to stupid social justice causes. Most of the topics we hear about (Wage gap, microaggressions, toxic masculinity, the list goes on) are simply made up problems that could only be quantified in a world where suffering (as classically defined) is nearly non-existent. The youth of today are a generation of coddled children.

The difference between a 1917 Bolshevik and today's pinko is that today's commie sympathizer has a lot to lose economically, they just don't realize it. Most of them are from middle class white families, so the damage will be devastating once it begins.
