Personally, I feel like growing up in Algeria helped me a lot, the country was built from anti-colonial socialist revolution and had close ties to a lot of socialist countries, but what settled it for me was how supportive marxists were to Palestine, from first glance I felt they got it far better than any performative liberal and I learned more about it.

I've grown up in the west and I personally hate how it's poisoned my community. My local mosque youth group is basically an ideological battle ground between socdems, petty bourgeois grindset guys, Shia Islamist social chauvinists (who ironically are more open to socialist economics), and then there's me holding the banner of communism.

We all get along well enough cosidering and all view the "west" as our enemy to some degree. Due to me being our of state for my education for months at a time, I feel leftist ideas are not propagatec well enough leabing me to essentially have to understand how to communicate Marxist thought much better then my peers are capable of communicating their political philosophy.

I'd say the advantage I have is that Marxism actually has a relatively rigid orthodoxy to pull from so when I relay my analysis to them it comes iff more concrete rather than vibes based.
