i’ve learned the hard way that some nuero-divergent behaviors (like mine) sow distrust within neuro-typical people who won’t let you help organize w them out of instinctual fear.
the last times i tried with the greens; lgbtq center in san jose; and the gmhc in new york; they had me spending the overwhelming majority of my time picking up garbage in parking lots and roads by myself.
the last 2 times were galling because i was a software engineer at the time w 10+ years of experience in IT and offered my services as a response to their advertised needs for IT & web developers/admins; yet i was only picking up garbage alone 95% of the time.
I’m sorry to hear that, comrade. Lack of party discipline in how neurodivergent comrades are treated is a sign of serious problems witu the org itself.
Haha I relate to that. I recently started applying to something, got hung up on a question, and realized I had started the process already and gotten hung up on the same spot
that’s why i put myself into that volunteering situation again despite the bitter taste of the first one and also why i been trying to finish a book series by s.m. sterling for the last 25 years; every time i try, i run into hand written notes from me in the past telling me that i need to read the previous book to remember what’s going on.
Meanwhile people in US:
Not a lot of people think it’s fine, but nobody a tually has a clue what to do/ doesn’t want to start it
The solution is to organize. PSL already organized protests across dozens of major cities, and is constantly recruiting.

That’s a terrible way to be treated. I hope you have a better experience if you ever choose to try again.
fortunately my neurodivergence makes me forget A LOT so it’s likely that i will try again. lol
