  • Something I have learned from Anarchists is how reactionaries take over political and non-political spaces. A few arrive and they adhere to all the rules but push bounderies where they can to see whats acceptable. Eventually it reaches a point where that space has a discussion publicly by users or privately by mods on what to do about this person or group. They aren’t technically breaking any rules so it feels wrong to remove them but they have upset enough people to get to this point that it feels SOMETHING must be done. If this user gets banned at most the space gets some wreckers and trolls that are annoying but the precedent has been set so they will get removed too. However if this person is not banned it means that space is recognized as safe for people like them. Others follow and the space becomes hostile to some of its original userbase until it becames a reactionary cesspit. It doesn’t always end up there, but it is better not to tolerate intolerance when it is easy to spot.

    For me political and school related organizations were great but any form of social work helps. You don’t have to go to a bar or a club, you can tend to a community garden or volunteer at a canteen. The first start to meeting people is finding an environment you feel comfortable ti meet them in imo
