i actually feel very isolated and like fighting a losing battle or a lost cause in the hardcore "scene" or "underground". the reason is while anarchist and radical politics were welcome in the 90s, the situation is not like this anymore at all. i often think the best i could hope for is that people accept my music "despite" the politics, which kinda is a defeat on its own too. apart from that, the reaction to anarchism and politics is hostile to extremely hostile in this "scene".
sometimes i get a message like "keep going you're on the right way" (thanks Boris Otterdam!) and this is one of the things keeps me going.
paradoxically, this situation is also one of my main motiviations as the lack / scarcity of anarchism and radicalism means that one should put as much energy to it as possible.
and the knowledge that anarchism is the true, right thing despite all this and forever will be.
