Maybe inappropriate but I really do mean it: :meow-hug:
Please stay and help?
If I had a community like this IRL? Sure. I’d stick around. I could make something of my small individual self with the help of people who cared about me and shared a leftist vision. But I don’t. IRL, I’m surrounded b chuds and if I’m lucky, liberals. The only community worth having is online, and whenever I get too attached to that, it just means it’s time to touch grass. I should have checked out a long time ago. I’m happy the world might be soon seeing som multipolarity. But the part of it where I am living is also going to see a rise of fascism that I don’t even want to try to survive. I have no community irl and I can’t will that into changing. As much as I’d like to. yay idealism.
I’m seconding the idea of looking into moving as an option. It’s worth a shot if your current situation is that hopeless. And I’m speaking from some experience, I left the US months ago for Latin America, unfortunately I’m going back in another few months to try to break into a decent paying industry, where I plan to work for a few years tops and then get the fuck out again… just being out of USA for a few months has really given me a chance to catch my breath and realize that there is so much more out there than the horrors of American capitalism. Not that things are perfect anywhere, but there are places that don’t grind you to a pulp the way American capitalism insists on doing to the poor.
I hear you and I thank you for the advice. Also good luck with your own moving and finding decent work in Amerikkka and/or Latam, however that ends up working out. I’m a drug addict NEET, so prospects aren’t great for me going anywhere. Doesn’t mean I’m not grateful to people here being kind and offering ideas.
Where all the hexbears live?? :matt-jokerfied: That would be nice, but nah, I don’t think it works like that. I actually live in what’s supposed to be a “progressive” area, but that just means rich people here are making it impossible for poor people to get by. I don’t have the financial, mental, or emotional means to go anywhere unfortunately.
