You are not alone. I used to frequent the subreddit as well, and everything about China for example was removed or heavily censored against. It is most definitely a more demsoc or socdem community now, with some very reactionary views when it comes to AES and international solidarity.

I noticed more backlash and bolder stances from a handful of other regular ML's, but it seems like it won't matter much as we are a minority among the usual western ultra's and socdems.

All in all you're not alone, and I hope this message is at least some comfort. Things are tough, but don't despair.

Similar situation here. For me instead of a 9-5 keeping me busy, it's my state of health being a constant obstacle in daily life. Most organizations have no set way for new members to get familiar, making it even harder for me to find my bearings. Let alone physically ever attending meetings etc.

Online I tried to get in touch to help with leftist media, but I was politely rejected after being upfront about my physical limitations.

Praxis for me now is just talking to friends who are left leaning, and continuing to educate myself. I just have little energy to do anything else, and it is frustrating.

I designed #4; it's called Castro Square

I'd say leave the vanilla experience vanilla. More people can enjoy it more easily that way, and the Minecraft aesthetic and gameplay is preserved.

What might be interesting though is some modpack like Feed The Beast, or Tekkit (is probably gone? Been out of the loop for years) and be able to do a lot more in ways of automation.

Others already mentioned most of the same thoughts I had (accurate for the time, Spanish Civil War) but it was annoying to see the "nuclear bombing of Japan saved lives" thing perpetuated. Not a word of the Soviet front in Manchuria. Was to be expected of a Hollywood movie, but still disappointing.

Silver lining was that the movie through Oppenheimer shows the realization of what absolute horrors the bombings were, and by extent the horror of nuclear war.

After my break from Minecraft (because I bhrnt myself out to finish this on time), I will with Rec start on phase 2. This will be improving the square, rooftop, and surrounding area. Especially nature and easthetics wise it should be a big improvement!

Loving posts like these, curious to see more!

Free. Just don't modify existing walls, windows, doors etc. Yours to decorate

Pond(s) are part of the plan for the actual square. Phase 2 will be that area, a more refined rooftop garden, and bringing the surroundings more in tune with the building and vice versa.

Over 40 apartments now available. Surrounding area is still a work in progress, with lots of plants and trees to be added. Features a rooftop garden.

Very much in favor of a whitelist

 

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but it looks pretty interesting with the hex grid. Might be interested
