  2. The stress of alt living in the remains of the commons, boaters in the UK

    The boater community is in rapid transition, with the pressures from gentrification, corporate control (#CRT), and online group dynamics (#failbook) colliding with a long-established scruffy, self-sufficient, and sometimes chaotic #liveaboard culture.

    1Don't be a dick
    No description needed ... if an admin says "stop being a dick" they are looking at the ban hammer.

    "Off topic posts are deleted. Political posts, campaigns (except HS2 / Kill The Bill & traveller rights,) memes, pets lost from locations away from the waterways, news and petitions not directly related to boats or boaters or London canals and rivers will also be deleted. Fly-tipping and bin-porn posts will be locked before they descend into a bin fire. Towpath tidy/litter picking posts will be celebrated - be the change you wish to see.

To do that, you would need something more affective. The spiky/fluffy debate in the video above.

    Question to London boaters, what can we do to make the change that is needed at #CRT"
