I'm really embarrassed being a communist and not knowing a second language.

I dropped Spanish which was the only language offered during my high school years. I regret it, and now I'm embarrassed to start learning as a uni-aged guy. I want to learn Mandarin because then I would know English and Mandarin which would cover like 50% of the populations speaking abilities.
Basically I just feel like a dumb American and being a Marxist I need to know another language.

If necessity is not a concern then you should only learn a language if you want to, not because you feel like you have to. Learning a language is an incredibly long and arduous process so the will and the desire to learn it has to be there.
That makes sense. It's not really a necessity, I'd just like to learn more to be able to communicate with more people and be able to more accurately slice through propaganda. Language barrier is a big thing yknow? And I just don't want to be a dumb USian lol
