OTTAWA – Threats against politicians have become “increasingly normalized” due to extremist narratives prompted by personal grievances and fuelled by misinformation or deliberate lie...

Not sure where you meet anarchists, but the ones I’ve met are the most educated, hard working, and empathetic people I’ve ever met

I live in the Deep South, and that’s been my experience with the (precious few) anarchists and socialists, for that matter, that I’ve met, as well.

Maybe go to a direct action group like Food Not Bombs or Defend the Atlanta Forest? Anarchists who actually do praxis are where you’ll find real anarchists.

I don’t currently have transportation and will be heavily occupied for several months. That said, I have attended events and spoken with Food Not Bombs people, and they are amazing, really good people. I had traveled a state north to do it, though, and if my plans pan out, I intend to find and work with them (in general, not necessarily the exact same people) in the future. Working with Atlanteans are quite possible, I won’t discount them but in general hope to travel northwards a bit. But who knows what tomorrow holds, I could well end up in Georgia.

Agreed, probably depends a lot on where you live though.
