It would be cool if we had a self-improvement comm.

As leftists, we understand that a lot of individual problems are caused by systemic issues. However, I think that there is still a lot that can be done on the individual level to improve your life.

Most online self-improvement spaces have a reactionary slant and are dominated by the same type of guy, which is another great reason to have a self-improvement comm on this website.

EDIT: our awesome admins created the new comm and our awesome comrade @SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net stepped up to moderate it, please check it out and start posting: https://hexbear.net/c/self_improvement

Are there any improovers here? What would you like to improve in 2024? Would you like to have a comm where we can hang out? solidarity

    So like in dumb guy words you dont like self-improvement because the culture surrounding it, it's generally intended end goal and how pointless participating in "self-improvement TM" is if the surrounding context doesn't match your ambitions?

      I guess yeah

      In even dumber guy words I’m fine with it but feel like the comm should be called something else to discourage the nerds

        I agree with your overall criticism of the term and culture. I love the term "revolutionary behavior". So far I think the term "collective improvement" would be the best since it is still close enough to the original term to be recognizable
