Could get you fined for trying to overthrow the government?

Hey everyone, literally my first time on this subreddit and feel like I need to change my life drastically. I do consider myself a hippie, by the way, I'm just not vocal about it

Today, I found out that my family ransacked my room while I was out of town, and some of my belongings were stolen (I also know who did it and why, long story). I live in New York City and wanted to know if there was a spot where I could finally live among real people? Or at least pay a neighborly visit?

I'm 21 years old and been a punk for a while but over the years I kinda figured that doing lots of amphetamines, drinking lots of alcohol and smoking isn't good for me and the environment and I have only love to give, not hate. The last years I wasn't able to work much due to depression and social anxiety, even long after being clean. I know I'm not a hippie for a long time and this might be a lot to ask but I would love if somebody could make a miracle happen. Tysm sincerely Tobi

Just all these young people suddenly rebelling against everything, rejecting materialism, war, and rigid social norms. They literally "dropped out" of society, abandoning conventional careers to pursue communal living, artistic expression, beauty, free love, music, peace, and mind expansion, sexual liberation, holistic living, eastern philosophies. The core philosophy of thia era was to "tune in, drop out," which encouraged young adults to leave the 9-to-5 workforce and reject corporate or government authority. I just can't imagine that sort of huge movement happening again??? Do you think it's possible I guess #vanlife which is profoundly popular is sort of related to it..

Honestly I'm genuinely curious about what your fave recipes are. Even if it's what you eat on the daily.

No judgement on what kind of diet you all have just wanna know.

So recipe swap anyone?

My whole life I have wanted to get out of school and join a hippie commune. I never found the appeal of a job or money, and find the thought of having an actual job nauseating and it just doesn't fit me. I need to life a free life.

​

How would I actually accomplish this? How does one even find an actual hippie commune that doesn't use money? Please, if anyone knows, how do I do this?

I want to escape the matrix and live a natural life, weather that’s living in a van or camper, buying land and going off grid, or living in a community with people like me. but i have no idea where to look or how to start. I don’t know where to find and meet people like me especially because i live in the midwest. if anyone else feels this way please reach out to me! Or give me tips of how to find community.
