New to the anarchism, seeking guidance (lemm.ee)

Hi! I apologize in advance if this is not the place for such posts.

I have recently happened upon descriptions of anarchism and its core ideas and, to my surprise, realized that I very much agree with all that I read. I would like to figure out what can I do to at least make an attempt to change the world into this direction.

Thing is, I grew up and currently live in Ukraine. I'm not sure what can I even do when my country is in a state of war, especially considering I'd rather not stick around in public places too much (being a guy and all).

Are there any online communities for Ukrainian anarchists that anyone knows of? I would also welcome any materials you think would be useful to study for someone new to anarchists' ideas

Thank you for reading this!

You could probably try to link up with some draft-dodging networks. That is a long honed tradition of anarchists and really as much as I think the resistance against the Russian aggression is justified, forcing people to fight, is not.

Also interesting in that context: https://north-shore.info/2024/10/04/hostages-of-the-gun-on-militancy-and-militarism/

Thank you! If I have a chance to ask the people I trust, I'll try to find something like that.
