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!
