RE: Anarchism Takes Courage: Helping People Escape the Cult of Normalcy

Wow. That's a really unique story about your father. I am glad you were able to work with him in that way. Amazing. And I totally I understand the desire to avoid discussion with the rest of your family. It's difficult discussing these ideas with family sometimes.

As for me, I am a public figure in terms of my position, so everything is out in the open for my family. When I first started speaking up, I got a lot of backlash. But eventually, they just started ignoring me. I think, in part, most of them don't really understand anarchism. But I am working on bringing more over. It just takes time and patience, but I understand that some people do not have either one of those commodities.

Thanks again for sharing that, Nick. It was valuable.
