Hello! I am a comrade born and there by stuck in the rural south of America. As a marxist, I am very isolated since I live in a very conservative part of the country. I happened upon this community yesterday, spent some time looking around, and joined today. I had no idea marxist social forums like this even existed, so I am just very excited to see a collection of fellow comrades online that isn’t stuck and struggling with the censorship of facebook or other mainstream social sites. So this is just my hello, and a bit of where I come from (don’t want to get too specific due to the history of organization like COINTELPRO) and just to say, I’m really glad to see a community like this exists! I had really thought under our current stage of capitalism something like this would be weeded out of existence. LONG LIVE THE REVOLUTION!

          yeah for real man, the rest of my neighbors except one are all basically trap houses. One of them is a straight up massive drug dealer (like the baaad stuff) and literally everyone knows it, I’m sure people have alerted the authorities on them multipule times, but nah they still there just… moving shit. And man, as an ex addict, i get a lot of the struggles, but the tweakers in this town, most the damn population, are fucking bananas.
