Chinese video hosting platform Bilibili https://www.bilibili.com/
[https://www.bilibili.com/] has switched to an international format and will
support mass registration from various countries, aiming to at least carve out a
portion of YouTube’s market. The platform has existed since 2010 and currently
has over 350 million active users (mostly Chinese). A neural translator is
available. source: https://x.com/bilibili_create/status/2090086781018677614

I wouldn’t give a shit about the economic crash if my livelihood weren’t dependent on the economy. Shit, even if I just had to adjust to a new career — I wouldn’t mind. The problem is that I have no idea what to expect. Will there be any jobs? How am I supposed to feed my family? I don’t live in an area that allows a family to be self sustaining. It’s hot, dry, little wildlife, … we’d probably be dead without an AC. so what the fuck do we do?
Form community and work to assist that community. Thinking every individual has to provide for themselves and their family is a libertarian fantasy that depends on having money to spend at a nonexistent store on nonexistent bags of seed to grow with well water you excavated by hand that you will defend with a gun you load with nonexistent ammunition bought at that same nonexistent store with no money just so you can shoot your hungry neighbor who wants food.
If landlords demand payment when no one has a job, oust the landlords and protect your neighbors who are being threatened with eviction. If police try to protect the landlord’s position, oust the police and protect your neighbors who are being violently targeted.
If people in your community are hungry, use existing farmland and existing logistics to provide enough for everyone. Sure, these workers won’t be paid if there’s no money to pay with, but if the choice is between “work hard and help my community from starving” and “sit on my ass as everyone starves”, it seems clear what logistics workers and farmers would choose. And your goal should be to assist them or assist some other facet of maintaining your community.
