I think both can be right but it would be dependent on whether it’s plural “you” or singular “you”

No it’s just a lot of blood relatives in there it seems

Not legal children, I meant children of other members of the community. Not overt pedophilia, just weird bordering incest that I understand people being averse to.

They say they aren’t letting blood relatives have sex but I would still feel odd belonging to a relationship with my dad and sister where everyone is having sex with all of us.

I feel like downvotes kinda make sense given that they said group has a lot of parents/children and siblings. I don’t even know if this is bait or not.

Yeah I’m not usually one to be like “oh civility is of utmost importance” and I recognize how necessary unpleasantness and sometimes outright force is necessary to enact serious change. At the same time I really respect people who recognize situations where everyone involved can gain from a mutual discussion. Thank you again for helping me out! It genuinely makes me want to talk more on this site haha

Thank you so much for that response! It really layed out what I was curious about in an accessible way. Also just wanna say you’re super active on here so I see you a lot, and I’m always interested in your takes. I definitely don’t agree with you on some things but I respect your viewpoints a ton because of how you back them up with good faith arguments. I don’t need to hear more about small communities because I feel like you’ve outlined the things I was curious about and my general focus is more on how we can address larger societal issues, which I feel is best accessed through larger communities. But I definitely wouldn’t turn down anything you have to say about small communities if you wanna get your thoughts out there!

I’m not super well read on this kind of thing but the idea interests me a lot! Can I ask you to explain the concerning effects of small, insular communities and gift economies? I’m not even certain what a gift economy is to be honest!
