Yeah, fully. The stepping stones to communality are not obvious, and there’s a big gushing river of cutthroat capitalism right below.
I have a similar issue with a family property that I’d like to make more communal… I need to put the time in to thinking about how to do it in a way that is fair and avoids catastrophic conflict.
I don’t envy you. Are you hoping to make something that is more for the locals, or are you thinking along couchsurfing/warmshowers style community building as well? Like commune community?
Kind of neither… I have a lot of close community in cities a few hours away, I’m thinking mostly about focusing on giving that community an out-of-town place. But also I still have lots of community in the area there, and I’d like for them to feel welcome, and for my city crew to engage with them. But it’s hard, because the distance is a barrier, prevents the constant contact that I think is needed.
