I'm interested in getting involved with anarchistic and consensus-driven activism... But where the hell do I start?

There's a semi-local Food Not Bombs, but they aren't meeting at the moment (protesting I imagine).

Are there similar groups I could look for? Are there social media type places I should look? Any kind of newbie infoshops?

I'm shit at making just regular acquaintances, so finding a specific kind of group has been a headache.

Thanks in advance

I'd like to create such an affinity group as you linked to, but I'm new to the area and don't have those connections yet.

Anarchist projects or groups would be a great way to get a feel for everything, see collective action and actually be a part of it rather than reading and reading.

Any advice on how to find such groups? I'm planning to visit some teach-ins and a mobile info-shop kind of library, but that's sort of a grasp at straws.

Are there listservs or similar things you could suggest? Idk if those are used much anymore, but the Graeber I've read mentions them a fair amount.

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules:

Be respectful
Don't be a nazi
Argue about the point and not the person
This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.
