Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

The Palestinian holocaust getting to the stage where it is now with extreme forced starvation and the shameless complicity of the imperialists bending laws to arrest protestors is more than enough of a reason to feel extra miserable. Mass layoffs, disability benefits being cut, cost inflation of food and rent, slop machine capitalists threatening to replace you, governments trying to stomp on trans rights, Nazis feeling free to behave and do as they please, scratched libs, weaponized mass surveillance, the global north finally feeling the effects of climate change, Deportations and and new prisons in Amerikkka (but I heard it was worse during Obama so I am not sure about that) and reasons I am missing. The few bloomer bits I feel come from Sahelian states and sometimes China but my life and disabilities with capitalism amplifying the effects it has on my life have only gotten progressively worse with age.
The Alliance of Sahel States has brought me so much hope in this past year. May we see a truly free Africa in our lifetimes
yeah i love the ASS
Even that makes me depressed, because they're still fighting a bunch of these terrorist forces.
As the climate change apocalypse unfolds, I'm finding it increasingly hard to look at any issue without immediately thinking of how climate change is going to affect that issue before I look at any other factors or effects. I'm also finding it harder to care about any issue where, no matter a negative or positive outcome, the local area where the issue is happening will be unlivable in a decade or two.
