Suddenly I realized all the ideas and ideology in my college have their roots on Marxism and now I feel I'm trapped in it I can't discern what is Marxist and what is not Marxist, or if there are non-marxist ideas.

no, not really. I explain my positions when I get into debates but then again I don't just outright say "WELL I'M A MARXIST AND I THINK"; I just skip to the "I think".

My father is a lifelong gun-toting catholic republican and he knows I'm more or less a communist (as well as a vegan, though I don't think he knows I'm pansexual). We are on very good terms, get lunch every know and then and chat amicably, sometimes about politics. Honesty is refreshing, /lit/, why would anyone hide their ideology?

Too bad so few people actually follow it politically. Distributism is a great economic model, and I personally think that multiculturalism and small amounts of nationalism go hand-in-hand with eachother.
