I had a similar experience as a student on an American mini-campus in Tours in 1980. A friend and I somehow ran into a French university student, started chatting, and she suggested we go out to eat together. Before we knew it, we were being plied with Communist rhetoric and flyers about various meetings going on in town. It was an eye-opener. That said, she was very nice.
Cool story, Betty. I’m glad you met a nice communist. 😀 The communists, anarchists, and even the scarce conservatives I met in university were, on average, nice folks too! 😀
