    Capitalism wants us isolated, sad, and reliant on their products/services. The antidote is strong community.

    I whole-heartedly agree, and yet it is virtually impossible to do such a thing as “build community” at this point, at least in the United States. There is like a pervasive anti-community dark magic / anti-matter sort of thing

      It’s not impossible. It can be done, it just takes effort. The nice thing is that it’s kind of a snowball effect once you get started with a couple folks.
