Oh, okay.
From talking to them, many know by the time they are back in the states, but I know some sell out for cushy jobs, similar to university grads that work for the military-industrial complex, big pharma companies, big tech companies, and so on.
I'm more of a long-term converter of them over time.
Educating for a revolution is not easy, but I try, as well as enlightening about our imperialist ways, the duopoly, and the oligarchy.
I do try to follow this mantra, as to unite the poor and working class:
"We should focus our actions, time, and resources on direct action, mutual aid, and community outreach. If you do engage in electoral politics, do not support the duopoly (red or blue team). No War but Class War!"
Thanks for sharing your views on the matter!
