You don't need to go shouting it, but if someone starts talking politics at you, fucking own it. Some coworker is like "trump sucks", say "yeah I know, I'm a communist". Your grandpa says "trump rules", say "no he sucks ass, I'm a communist". You're on a date and they ask who you're voting for? Say "I'm a communist". Cashier asks would you like change? "Yes, I am a communist".

Be open about your politics and lay claim to the title. Be a communist.

Let's do a roleplay to demonstrate. I will be the buffoonish ignoramus who only knows communism bad.

What do you mean you're a communist? Like China or Stalin? Those guys are bad.

I'm gonna take this seriously like ur a coworker or stranger, u guys critique me

Nah not like that really, more like... original Marx stuff combined with Bernie Sanders. It's not that radical when you get down to it, essentially that most resources should be democratically controlled instead of by a single weirdo like zuckerberg.

Probably wouldn't go on that long unless they continued to seem with me

Good effort, but do you think they would know what you mean by "original Marx stuff"? You should be ready to explain any terms you're introducing. They would probably know Marx purely through the lens of propaganda, so phrasing it that way may be putting an obstacle. Making a Bernie comparison is useful, though, because it gives people a touchstone to a popular and well-known figure, even if his politics are not quite where we want to be. How else could you put it?
