wowwwwww so cool
My one longterm goal has been to get my legs so swole that I will be able to crush the skulls of mine enemies with my thighs. I aspire to thicc Kirby! Soft and squishy, but legs of steel
Yeah in the US, even if it's an older car I believe replacing or rebuilding an engine is easily like $5,000.
Same, but now with more existential dread™!
Wow, it's VERY rare when I can stop myself at 3 beers when I drink. might not seem like much but good job! 
Makes sense; I know a lot of people vote based on vibes and I just remember that he got a decent amount of media exposure and "communist bad" so that's why i was surprised
Got it, yeah I read the part towards the end but didn't know if you were speaking directly to the white nationalists of the Cascadia/State of Jefferson movement, which I havent heard much about in years, or more broadly about white nationalism in the region.
I do feel like it's a difficult job trying to convince people that the democratic party isn't in their best interests, even though none of these are swing states. People seem so firmly entrenched in their robust support for the dems, but at the very best they rely on "the lesser of two evils" and refuse to budge on that. Maybe it's less focus on that and focusing more on mutual aid/community building before trying to delve into politics directly?
I think I'm mostly surprised because he's received quite a bit of media attention, or at least he did for a minute but I guess if he didn't even make it on the ballot in some places that would obviously affect the numbers
Just read your post and you may have answered the question, but the concept of Cascadian secession has already been taken up by conservatives and white nationalists, right? So if it were to be a movement to try and radicalize more people to the left how would we break away from that association?
Really surprised that Claudia de la Cruz overtook Cornel West so significantly
I get really anxious when I hear these phrases as well, I get really anxious of being judged for my social awkwardness, being off putting for being autistic, not being "radical" or well read enough and just having the motivation to try to do the things while burnt out for years is a struggle too.
I use Instagram and have been able to follow accounts from local mutual aid groups who post about their open meetings and other events around town such as teach-ins, share fairs, food not bombs, etc. That's been helpful, and I plan on tryyyying to engage with some groups in the near future now that I know some people who go.
A good start might be to see if there is a Food Not Bombs near you that you can volunteer at. Or try volunteering at warming centers or homeless shelters; there are often a lot of radical people who put time and energy into things like that.
Your ability to find groups like this is gonna vary, I'm lucky to live in a place where there is an abundance of different groups to join.

The cringe is so visceral it makes me wanna throw up

It's a tale as old as time of Anarchists absolutely shitting all over communists but god damn I hateeeee it. No self awareness
Edit: to be clear I don't have a problem with Anarchists, just seems like very often MLs are met with so much vitriol with people they could collaborate with. Just sucks. Stupid interner
