The conformist depression of the left since the 90s has been healing for the last decade or so. Eurocommunism and social democracy seem to be dying as ideologies, and people are getting more radicalised worldwide, be it right or left. So there's hope for some revolutions to happen in some places, while sadly we should also expect reactionarism to win in others.

Also China is finally confronting the USA and becoming a match in economic, military and political power. Even if one doesn't see China as socialist, it's undeniable that they are neither interventionist nor hostile to socialism abroad.
