A place for optimism, relentless positivity, anti-doomerism, and snuggle sessions.

We're all in this together, and a better world is possible!

This is now also a space for organizing tips for our collective survival as we confront climate change and everything else. Still no doom-posting. We're here to work together, support each other, and boldly face the future.

Rules:

  1. Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct

  2. No doom, no gloom, only bloom. There's plenty of room for doomerism elsewhere. This community is solely for having a positive outlook on the future and spreading good vibes.

  3. Be kind to your fellow users. This also means no arguing in the comm. Arguments and negativity are not conducive to blooming. Constructive discussion is good. No interest-policing. Support your comrades in their joy!

  4. Always share good news. We can't exactly enforce this one, but if you have good news, please share it with us! Keeping happiness and positivity to yourself is the twelfth type of liberalism.

Hey y'all, I know things are pretty fucked right now, just wanted to share an optimistic perspective. (Copied from a comment here).

I have honestly never been more bloomer in my life.

EVERYONE is thinks things suck.
EVERYONE is pissed.
EVERYONE is trying to do something about it.

The only problem is that people don't know why things suck, or how to make it better.

Fascists think things suck because of [minority], and so they want to get rid of [minority].

Liberals think things suck because of the fascists, and so would like everyone to just play nice and we can work this all out, please.

But WE know.
WE know the problem! IT'S CAPITALISM!!!
WE know the solution! KILL CAPITALISM!!!

If everyone in the world woke up tomorrow and knew what we know, the suffering would stop.

The collective rage that we see in society would be directed at the true enemy instead of each other, and nothing in the world is more powerful than people working together to make things better.

The only thing we must do to win, the only thing that truly matters, is to get everyone to understand.

History has blessed us with the ultimate weapon.

A material power that Marx and Lenin and Sankara and Newton could not dream of wielding in their wildest fantasies.

NOW is the moment in history for revolution.
Capitalism WILL fall in our lifetimes.
I'll be surprised if it lasts twenty years.

The contradictions have become undeniable.
The people want change, they just need direction.

And for the first time in history, we have a direct line to every single one of them.

Don't you DARE quit on us.
We need everyone we can get.

Now get back to posting, soldier.

No I agree, my point was moreso against the internet is a direct line comment. All of those require in person interaction and intervention. It's rhetorical in the sense that any solution requires a direct connection via in person interaction
