Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

i see that there are several comrades here who share my frustration with the medical establishment. it’s hard to talk about with people who have never had the experience of being discounted and dismissed. i sit here and make memes for lack of anyone to talk to about it.

i’ve also been reading, researching, and keeping notes on ways to organize for the defense of people under circumstances like ours, but there’s no one to share these ideas with bc again, no one wants to listen.

i’m just glad to be here. i’m a little bit timid, but i hope to get to know everyone better with time.

Hey, I'm sorry if I didn't sound polite, I did my best. Sometimes I may not give the best response because I'm usually juggling many different activities. I didn't want to dismiss your idea.

A social movement can help you create those networks. I'm not talking about activism only but actual efforts to help people. The landless movement in Brazil not only do demonstrations, and land occupation but also organized agricultural workers in cooperatives. They engage in negotiations with companies (even external to Brazil) to buy machines and do partnerships with universities and technical schools to train the workers. They even maintain their own newspaper.

People with the same demands and difficulties as yours need to organize. But in order to have a clear idea on what those demands are, you need to build a program that is actionable.
