How do communists or socialist do elections within a small community? Specifically not anarchists - I asked already in an anarchist sub.

I need like a little guide. Not a 20 page document, Ideally I have a proposal within a day or 2.

Is this correct about the dark triad? From a jreg video.
As a general rule:
Machiavellianism is manipulation
Narcissism is looks
Psychopathy is violence
ChatGPT tells me this question is very offensive to psychopaths and refuses to answer.

Has anyone else noticed their irl mutual aid groups are just unilateral donations? Rather than "mutual".
Maybe my city's irl groups are just bad at the mutual part.
Do you know of any anarchistic material related to a bartering economy?

The Beehaw financial report with alyasha
our hopefully-final update of where we stand is a break-even of $54 a month or $648 a year. (please once again ignore OC's estimated yearly budget--we don't determine it lol)
our expenses are currently:
for a total of at least $54/mo in expenses. this may vary from month to month though, so we're baking in a bit of uncertainty with our estimation.
we currently have, for the month of June:
for a total of $705 this month. our total balance now stands at 726.51.
that balance means we now have about a year of reserves currently, if we received no other donations and have no unexpected expenses. i'm sure we'll have churn in our monthly donations and such though, so please don't hesitate to donate on our OpenCollective page if you'd like to keep the site going.
