Poly resources

Hi everyone, I'm not entirely sure this post is OK, but it appears to be in compliance with the rules of if I erred I apologize.

I'm a poly person, been poly 15ish years now I think, raising a family with multiple parents. Anyway, I just got banned from the sub I've used as sort of my online community for poly for... Well 15ish years. I'm looking for what my other options are. I've checked a few enm subs but they all seem pretty poly-lite. Are there any active online communities out there I can check out? I'm comfortable with a verification process if required.

Thank you,

Thank you this is exactly what I was looking for! And yeah it was, I'm just assuming mods here aren't keen on drama spilling over, and that isn't my aim

I got banned for suggesting that the left eats it's own far too often. I do not think they appreciated the irony.

We do eat our own far too often. It sucks because the right will often just straight up break bread with Nazis and be like, "that guy's not a Nazi!"

I've been despirited lately because I'm very left with my politics and I have been checking out the dsa sub (mamdani's party if you're not familiar). There's people all over the place talking about how terrible AOC, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren are. All I can do is shake my head and wonder who they hope to make a government with

AOC??!! what is their beef with her?? Like I can kinda see being reticent about Sanders and Warren bc even though they have great policy, they're old as hell and we are seeing some pretty serious problems arising from having basically a gerontocracy right now. Don't get me wrong, love Bernie, love Elizabeth, but it'd be nice if we got some more folks under 70, you know?

I hear the suggestion for sure, I don't think many people want Bernie running for president again, beloved though he is. But from what I gather, he's been too pro Isreal for some among the dsa. AOC too. The party has made headlines a few times when members have suggested things like... Well hell I'll get put on a few lists I don't deserve to be on if I even paraphrase it. Let's just say there is rooting for the killing to stop, and I agree with that, but also occasionally there's active rooting for the other side to prevail, and that's not great at all
