fuck wages as a concept entirely. I want to do things because they need to be done, because they help the people around me, and because I enjoy them

I don't want people to tell me I'm better than someone else just because I decided to focus on my special interest or fix something that was annoying me or some shit

I don't want to exist anywhere near any system or ideology where they try and measure and pay "hard work", I want to freely do shit I want to do without people trying to measure and dissect it and apply it to their own idea of "value".

I hate it when people refuse to accept help because they feel like they don’t “deserve” it. That just wastes everyone's time, so stop calling people leeches. The point of mutual aid is building structures that help everyone involved, and if you did that right people “using it” and not “giving back” don’t exist, because using it is “giving back”. Every bit of dependence any of us rip away from the capitalists undermines their power for all of us.

Every time i attempt to explain myself people seem to think that i am boasting that i am better then them or something.

I can only assume they are projecting something on me, i just wanted better for everyone unconditionally without personal benefit other then living in a less fucked up world. Isnt that normal-selfish enough while still clearly in their benefits also? Apparently thats very hard for some to grasp.

Have you looked into anarchist communities? What I typed here was like, just a basic summery of stuff that is completely uncontested there I thought would make for an easy spam post in other places to find other anarchists lol

I got a discord server linked in my bio if you would like to meet a group of people who all believe in this stuff, and I can help you find others if you want.

I am subscribed to a few anarchist places but most seem rather barren.

Lemmy had been the best fit i found online in general. But even here i find i am still often more radical the average.

It would definitely be interesting to know more People to debate these topics with. I am talking a look at that discord server.

Edit: cant find your bio, may you send me an Invite?

well, this will be a space you are likely to be far less radical than average in I can say that, and I checking out these sites for the first time and these forums have not impressed me. The more public anarchist spaces tend to not have much going on because so much energy goes towards dealing with trolls and such, so they can't build mutual aid and such internally
