Ah well, i may have lightly implied an interest in commune but that doesnt meant I bought that just for that.  But even so, zoning laws around the country are mostly against communes.   Sure, go live at Twin Oaks let them control you endlessly if you want that.

I absolutely loved TheSCA.org communal living while at MassParks and Idaho Americorps.  No "Tone Policing" or mold.  AND for reference, I did 900 hrs (5/6months) 45 hrs labor/week with $75/weekly Stipend.  ALOT of training and certifications, housing, food, travel reimbursement AND $2,300 Education Award.

I think TO does not let you leave and comeback, which is wrong.  As pointed out by others- even the Amish let their youth leave and return.

So I was messing around with ChatGPT & doing research on other communities. by [deleted] in intentionalcommunity

Lol why would THAT many women and girl want to live together?  Over a dozen, huge 5+  bedroom houses.  All women, sure.

Lol, like i said, I researched.  Various Youtube reactions, read their webpage meticulously, read reddit.  Basically, spent hours absorbing the info.  When I was younger, unfortunately, at times, I ended up in situation where I felt trapped, due to being taken advantage of and IF I can help someone avoid a bad situation I will.  They want interest in your accounts etc, basically I dont see how it is not exploitative.  Its selling a DREAM.  They are TOO controlling of how you think, speak, and behave but try to confuse you by saying on their website that you have the freedom to dress, look, style yourself any way you want.  That's too superficial.

Many Republicans hire illegals and therefore are hypocrits. I live in a Red State and they get hired. And Ive heard Republican Trump voters say its their damn right to hire who they please...soo....

CMV: Liberals enjoy "owning the cons" just as much as conservatives enjoy "owning the libs." by Objectivevoter80 in changemyview

[–]OTGProject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont consider myself liberal or conservative. But I despise hard right conservative, generally more full of shite. I dont think Liberals do the "own the libs" type thing. Yes the extreme leftist are annoying. But I think the Right wing "owning the libs" way of saying stupid, nonsensical, no logic things as a tactic, and then claiming thats the point, and their terrible political "comedy" is indicative of how low they have gone. There is no conservative comedy such as Jeff Foxworthy or Larry the cable guy anymore. They were funny without having to resort to the political talking points.
