    I accepted a job as a teacher in a remote village somewhere in the middle of the Amazon Rainforest. Too much poverty, too many people living (or literally dying) without their basic needs met, and after 2.5 years I was simply too disgusted with our economic and social structures to not be radicalised.

    Then I started to read and watch videos about Anarchism, Socialism, and Communism. I joined a union. I talked to some friends about politics, and they guided me into the basics. Eventually I narrowed my interest to Marxism-Leninism.
