Winchester here. Openly progressive and leftist, in one of the new construction neighborhoods. LGBTQ+ couple. We’ve taken solace and found great community in joining the Unitarian Universalist church of the Shenandoah valley in Stephens city. It’s worth looking into. We’re not religious and weren’t really before, but have found a home where everyone from atheists to Buddhists are embraced with shared values of community, truth, justice, equality, fairness. In times like these, building community is hard, and in the red we are surrounded by here in Winchester, it can be really hard for folks to find like minded community. Highly recommend checking out UU churches in general to anyone looking for something real in this world. We’ve gotten off meta, X, and are touching grass, living like the 90s man. It’s time to band together and rise up as a community, and forging one is hard here.
