I've started doing this in person when I feel like it won't get me physically attacked by someone present. It felt kinda awkward at first, but it's much easier for me now. I use socialist or sometimes marxist in most other cases.

Yeah don't get yourself injured or ostracized, but if you're around otherwise normal people or family, we shouldn't hide it. Gotta get that word normalized asap.

The bad part is in America it's sometimes hard to know who's secretly a Qanon obsessive with a concealed firearm. Although after like 15 years of being open about it, I've only been accosted in public a single time: a guy followed me around pointing out the hammer and sickle pin on my bag and shouting at me. Kept saying his dad died fighting communists in Korea. I tried to ignore the guy and he eventually got tired, but it took every bit of restraint not to tell him his dad deserved it.
