Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Hi. I'm alienated, living in the imperialist core, I have no political representation, and none of my friends are communists. Except from this website I feel extremely isolated. How are the rest of you faring?

A mix between distracting myself with media and coping with spirituality.

In the current world, we're stuck in the middle of a dark stormy ocean being thrown about by forces beyond our control. The most we can do is to attempt to build a raft and wait out the storm. Maybe you'll be picked by another's raft tomorrow and be fine. Maybe you'll drown before you even have a chance to build your own.
