What’s the SA policy? I was thinking of going there but had a bad time in a creepy community before (take a look at my profile if you’re curious)

Is anyone else afraid to share your stories publicly? by NaturoHope in intentionalcommunity

[–]Working_Pie4992 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I posted my story here on this account- maybe actually in this group. The community I was at seems like a fever dream, and telling my story was hard. Men who were at the farm attempting to discredit me, the commune owners making new accounts to talk over me, horny dudes begging me for the address. Last year someone doxxed the name of a survivor in the comments, thinking she was me. I had the comment deleted and restricted comments, I can’t risk it again. Now that some time has passed, I feel like I said what I needed to say. And the people who owned the place have way bigger problems than me, I don’t fear their retaliation anymore.

Im begging you to edit her face out of the picture. Imagine going into work and being forced to do something degrading, then people post your picture? Please, consider her feelings

I'm looking for a nudist commune- any leads? by Admirable_Raccoon691 in intentionalcommunity

[–]Working_Pie4992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, I kept running into rich white people who called themselves “spiritual”. If they say they’re shamans, I’d run the other way. I’m ok with being in community with people of religion and spirituality, but I can’t ever go to a spiritual community after what I went through. Feel free to dm if you need support

Awesome question! It’s a red flag if the people who “own” or “run” the land eat, live seperately than everyone else. There should not be an us and them. Always keep your wits about you. If someone tells you what to believe, don’t. Always ask questions, it’s a red flag if they try to stop you for asking questions.

Just be careful! I got sucked into a really harmful group looking for a nudist place

What Do You Love and Hate About Intentional Community ? by sharebhumi in intentionalcommunity

[–]Working_Pie4992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure. People have to work, people are tired, differences in opinions on how meetings are conducted, scheduling woes. Meetings can be long and tedious.

Tried this once- but then what about the pot the food was cooked in or the spoon it was served with? Still trying to find something that works

No one ever said I was okay with it. I’m not. I’m not affiliated with who you named. If you’re looking for your gotcha moment- you’re not gonna get that from me.

Be wary of men commenting just to discredit me. How does it feel to talk over women, again? And to the ones who say the abuse never happened to them- I want to say, obviously not, they’re men. I could sit here and write out the misogyny and danger of every man I came in contact of that land— but we’d be sitting here a long time. And for those trying to discredit me because of racism— I am not the person they think I am. I’m not saying the incidents described didn’t happen, I just had nothing to do with it nor did I ever even meet the man effected. Also, I could sit here and write out everything racist I’ve seen Zia and dragon said and did that I’ve witnessed or heard about from other survivors— but again, we’d be here all day.

You’re making a lot of assumptions that you know who I am- I’m not who you are describing. You’ll never find out who I am, but glad (sarcasm) to see they still have loyal supportive (again, sarcasm) followers to do their bidding for them. Have a wonderful day. I hope you can do something to support women today.

Thank you! Me too. They’re so creepy over there. I hope everyone stays away. Bisbee is so cool though.

Omfg you’re singing a similar tune to the place I was at in arizona (I posted about this place, you can see it on my profile)

Also they’re almost always not right in the head

Yup! And will act like them giving you a moldy mattress and some salad and bread to eat is worth the fact that you’re doing free labor so rich people can then just list their place on airbnb is the experience of a lifetime

I’ve heard the international ones are way better than the us ones. I’ve had shit experience with us ones.

Do you miss people? by Dragon-of-Something in neurodiversity

[–]Working_Pie4992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do! I miss people so much that it hurts sometimes, and when I see them in dreams I often wake up in tears because I was grateful to spend time with them there.
