I have a friend who lives in a “bad neighbourhood”. Everyone looks out for one another. Harm anyone in that street and you’re in deep shit.
My aunt also lived in a close community. When she died, they had to hire security to guard houses because the entire neighbourhood was at her funeral. She and her husband had looked after them, they’d looked after her after my uncle died.
The human race will not survive without empathy and community.
I’m going to heavily disagree. Community is the only thing we have now. it’s the giant mesh of friends and connections that is stronger than any single node. But you only get out of it what you put into it.
I’m currently a week away from leaving the US, and the loss of my community is one of the biggest things I’ve been mourning. That said, my community has also been absolutely instrumental in helping me through this.
Certain groups use it as a coded word, which sounds like they’re talking about a general area, but what they actually mean is their race/religious community.
I’m pretty sure “conmunity” does indeed not mean anything and never has.

I dont agree here. Community has meant something and still does. Im in several communities and would do a lot for a lot of people in said communities.
Hell, if you start looking at asia communities tends to have even more meaning…
EDIT: derp, didnt see the n in there lawl
read it again, I quoted a typo by OP, there’s not actually a letter “n” in the word “community”
commu>n<ity
ok fair point :D
Oh fair, didnt see that haha
“Conmunity” =/= “Community”.
‘Conmunity’ is what the US is now, right?
Unfortunately.
