i live in a small college town and im too old to be hip enough to join or form a reading group in the normal age range in this town.

can I join yours?

if it meets in jitsi or signal or zoom, I would love to join, if you'll have me.

I think my last anarchist reading group was 10 years ago, and we read crimethinc's ABCs of anarchism.

I've been to some study sessions with maoists and leninists, but I really want to hang out with anarchists, even if it's only virtually.

Jabber has only one real chat where even LEA congregates. I may start another in SimpleX if you want, since I have 2 jabber friend that were kicked out of the queer one.

this smacks of badjacketing. what makes you think there are cops there?

Read the logs? There are plenty of law enforcement pro whistles both by actors, agents, and moderators in that chat. And I’m talking about popularity. Not expecting law enforcement to join public chats is quite naīve, no?
Even assuming the pro enforcement rhetorics are in jest, why would one even entertain authoritarian rhetorics in a chat meant to discuss anarchism?

maybe so, but without evidence, this is just creating division and unnecessary suspicion.

Oh didnt know that disroot had an anarchism chat, funny thing, I applied for an account there yesterday:)

Theres also this community's matrix chat (#div0-anarchism:matrix.org), but dont talk that much about the book and we dont do any video calls

I mean, disroot is quite literally an anarchist cooperative, so yea, their jabber service will blatantly chat about anarchism. I just can't rec. the 2nd most popular one, because of issues with the server admin. Thus my urge emigrate to SimpleX.

Let me ask my friend, I’ll make a SimpleX.

I can't stand Matrix, so, 🙅‍♀️.
