    Maybe I'm judgemental but I can't understand realizing the horrors of capitalism and then deciding your response to that is to fuck off and live in the woods (so to speak). I haven't encountered or read about any communes that are actively committed to pushing people to socialism or engaging in meaningful praxis, feel free to own me if you know of any. Generally I see it as only caring about yourself/people you approve of, and I'd rather see comrades sticking around and working for everyone, idk. Are you even interacting with the proletariat on your commune?

    Also there's a component of communes that relies on the protection from/indirectly benefits from the state that I can't quite articulate right now, but basically in my opinion you're still benefiting from capitalism/the state while also doing very little to fight it if you turn to communes
