My commie acupuncturist: I made small talk with her.

As a student of history, I have a high level understanding of the history of communism. I asked her about living under communism, but kept the tone light, for fear of her clamming up.

She defended communism. She actually defined communism as “people working together”.

Coincidentally, she lives down my street. My neighborhood is a neighborhood in transition: older houses are getting torn down to build huge McMansions. She lives in one of those McMansions, which are 3 times the square footage of mine.

I guess poking people with needles is very lucrative. Either that or she gets a stipend for being an officer in the PLA.

I've noticed this as well after working with someone who grew up under communism in China. They wouldn't talk about it at all.
