How to find non-woke people to network with?

[Malasanya]

As somebody that is up and coming in the creative arts, where the hell can I find people to network with, programmers, other artists, etc? It seems like there is this spell across the entire artistic and programming communities where even those that are against mass censorship and control of ideas won't dare speak up at all for fear of being blacklisted/terminally cancelled/fired.

I absolutely do not want to network with people that support this sort of crap, but even talking about it in my circles is almost equal as outing yourself as a non-believer and putting yourself in danger, what is there to do?

Are you saying you took the blue pill and are sleeping? WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!

Sadly, most non-woke artists I know of do their own thing. Like comic writers/drawers GPrime85, StoneToss, SimpleDisorder, Sinfest, Anne Can't Stand It, Grafeus, Kukuryou. Maybe they could network and co-lab via Gab and Communities.win, but here on Sanctuary would also be an option.

Make it known how based you are, and let people come to you. Find the ones who are based and go directly to them.

You could try moving to more conservative communities I suppose, but are you sure you're not just exaggerating things?

Yes, absolutely sure lol; when it comes to videogames or art in general, It's not really about "communities", but that in general employers will just blacklist/find an excuse to fire you the moment "x" or "y" unemployed activist catches wind of your views(that is, doesn't absolutely and fervently support whatever they support) and sends them a message claiming you're pro-russian, or sexist or whatever. Very often, even dumb shit like finding out you're against abortion will end up like this.

I do know of other smaller,"communities" that are not ultra-activist led but they're very small time and hobby-like, with a few members, and often with the same sort of unemployed cultist activist prowling around to see if they can get your personal info so they can harass your employer about how you're whatever-ist by adjacency and get you fired.

Something that has been done in major communities I know a few years back is a bunch of the mods declaring that there is going to be a manifesto being declared, about how you support or reject xyz flavor of the month political issue, and those that sign it are considered politically reliable and later offered jobs/gain connections and those that don't sign it being ostracized, or straight up pushed out of places/job opportunities.

But at the end of the day it doesn't really matter, I'll find a way to make things work by myself; I have to. Cya.

Have you actually been fired before because of this? Can you point us to these manifestos so we have more information?

Cya.

Where do you think you're going? There's no escaping Sanctuary. :)

Isn't the art community like the least woke? Outside of like furry commissions I just don't see it. Oh and ads aren't art.
Don't you just do recreational drugs together and either piss off from each others life or make a mate under the guise of 'lol drugs'?
Dunno, get better clientele? A show of the portfolio should tell all they need to know.
If weebs can go to Cons and sell doujin in person featuring shotas getting off to the JFK assassination you can deal with someone sharing unrelated things about you

I've only been exposed to programming woke-ness via Houseman bringing up stackoverflow community drama every now and then so I got nothing there.

general employers will just blacklist/find an excuse to fire you

That is applicable to every sector. No woke needed.

But at the end of the day

Do nights end too?
What about a piss?

it doesn't really matter

You should go into music

The art community drama with AI really disillusioned me from society, but everything seems to do that. TECHNOLOGY BAD! THEY ARE STEALING MY ART REPOSTING WITHOUT PERMISSION!

Like uh... don't put it online if you don't want people doing that?? They can be weird but that just seems like an upset mentality minority. I couldn't really name any "based" art communities that wouldn't be obvious to name already. Autists on random forums are pretty artistic but not always the easiest to talk to

Reject the secular world and become a true blessed artist! clearly truth and the values of society are not aligned. If you want to support truth than go ahead! if someone comes after you in that way, it's only because society gave them that moral avenue to economically compete, because they control and only let you feel like you have power by acting that way. I personally try to stay away from anything like that as I consider it in direct competition with me.

I'd rather be poor and happy than have wealth built on top of a system of evil.

Sure, but let's also consider that we don't really know the full story. OP could have very easily been showing up drunk to work almost every day instead and got fired because of that, and then they blamed it on SJWs. Maybe they really were getting censored. Or maybe not. We'll likely never know.

Always ask questions.

Reject the secular world

Secular has nothing to do with wokeness. Secular/atheism is the default position we're born into and then some turn into either wishy-washy agnostics or brainwashed into the local identity politics (christian, cult, islam, wokeness, etc).

Some kid I was talking to a year ago said I was "pretty woke" and wasn't sure how to take it, lol.

Pretty sure "wokeness" today is a thing to highjack the left workers movements, CIA can't do undercover stufff anymore cos everyone leaves too big a digital footprint, but they don't really have to because they control the media and social media sites. So they just pump out ai generated stuff that is designed to cut people along sexual differences, racial gender, whether you mask etc it doesn't even matter if those are real issues. In fact its better if they are not they just invent issues for people to hate each other about and waste their time.... their RELATIONSHIPS, their LIFE.... on these CAGEMAFIA sites.

I don't think it's just religion though it's like groupthink and everything Uncle Ted says, there is a palpable agreement I think on different viewpoints of reality and the more I expose myself to everything and try to get a clear picture, the less makes sense.

Someone pointed out to me that people become more religious or spiritual or "group minded" conservative as a natural survival instinct or something in uncertain times, but I don't see it that way at all, and I find it hard to even comprehend the reality of society the more I try to see the bigger picture.

Idk it doesn't really feel much different to me, like even though it feels like the "underground" is dying, it's actually stronger than ever and it sucks that people can't find happiness , everyone I know is depressed because all the new video games suck, I just chill and mess with old stuff like BBS technology, that community is cool. Politics is fun somewhat if you don't pay attention to the news but it's a pretty boring existence, I can see why people latch onto the drama easily, it pulls you in slowly.

Yeah, OP I found these pretty "red pilled" sleepy they are LAYING FLAT, it is *chan community, I never heard of them 'lainchan' they got like some kinda p2p internet ring??? and all their pages look like this. I have no links theres only 39k hits on google??? wtf. The world is weird.

These are sites that have all linked together on Lainchan to create a webring. ... If you want to be added but don't know what a "lain chan" is, ...

they seem chill to me though
