New to this community, just an wanted to introduce myself
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!
Welcome! I know Conservatives are more susceptible to some Marxist talking points than other libs (guns, corporations, do your own research, Ukraine, and so on), but of course a lot of them are fasc-y or McCarthyist too. Stay safe.
Hello, fellow southern comrade! I'm sorry you're stuck down here, but there are a few of us around. Found my people near Knoxville. I hope you can find some where you are, too.
I guess I'm not aware of the conservative Indian demographic, you mean like natives? Good god seems a lot like shooting themselves in the foot. But I dunno, I've heard some pretty racey and extremely homophobic/transphobic shit out here. I went to school with a kid that openly believed inter-racial marriage should be punished, if that says anything.
