I found r/anarchism on Reddit years ago, probably around 2010-2012. It put into words what I’ve been feeling, especially with the fresh wounds from the 2008 recession.
Learning about anarchism helped validated some my feelings and life choices up to that point and helped me continue to do what I thought was right, even when others tried to make me feel wrong. I’m glad I didn’t give up, over the last 1.5 years I’ve finally found others who understand anarchism and they’ve become some of my closest friends ever.
Being quiet and observant made me a target for bullying and abuse so it makes sense why other people who felt out casted by their peers are so open and comfortable with me. Listening to their stories made me more sure that anarchism is something worth working towards.
