Alternatively, how do I move myself towards other people who already agree with me to do this, instead of having to try to convince people who already don't really care for my company that my ideas are right? And who do I go to, to help me do that?

    What is there that I can do that requires the least amount of functional interpersonal communication skills, doesn't require a college education, and is also practically useful?

    I want to be able to do something, but I'm literally only good at low-skill industrial labor.

    Like this part:

    Ok, so you can move to a major city in the USA or elsewhere where there will be an org (usually many orgs that hate each other). Then study them and answer the questions and vetting according to watever their party line is.

    Any city will do, even conservative-leaning ones. And almost any org will do to start, even if they’re weird trots talking about how Kropotkin was actually a Fascist or something it’s better than nothing.

    Seems reasonably accomplishable, depending on exactly how big of a city we're talking about. And I do intend on moving once I can get back to work. But I don't know about the coding stuff, or trying to be some kind of international smooth-operator.

      I mean, I don't want to push you into things you aren't comfortable with, but have you considered high-skill industrial labour? Germany at least has a free technical/apprenticeship program IIRC. And you'll be an immediate prize for any org that can have you.

      Other things to do, join a big union and be active in its internal workings. You can do this anywhere. This doesn't require you to communicate outside of basic professional standards, but does require you to be in a lot of meetings with libs and chuds with only a faint glow of class consciousness.

      Like...yes, there are some things like propaganda officer or lamplighter you can do while isolated in an org. but Socialism is...Social. At most points you gotta work with and talk to people, inside and out of the org.
