Youre pretty savvy with Friendica. Some people are looking for a good way to rebuild their mutual aid network that they lost on twitter but are also trying to defend against hate and harassment. Would Friendica have options that help them

theyre in a bubble and taught to be afraid of change, to normalize their pain. Its easy to make the world look like a chaotic disaster and make people feel safe in the slow-paced south. Really similar to how the GQP manipulates their voters, obvious crossover with the conservative bases in the south
theres a lot of angles to it. I mean, i grew up in it, not sure why, but i broke out, still cant understand why really

Its the perputual condition and tempermant of the south, "be happy with what you got, toughen up and deal with it"
i think it's partly because living in the south conditions you to a way of life that's difficult to escape from (just not prepared for life in different places/cultures), and party "misery loves company (people need community so they don't want you to leave, dont wanna be alone, dont wanna feel like they failed where others succeeded)
