Not sure where you meet anarchists, but the ones I've met are the most educated, hard working, and empathetic people I've ever met

I live in the Deep South, and that's been my experience with the (precious few) anarchists and socialists, for that matter, that I've met, as well.

Maybe go to a direct action group like Food Not Bombs or Defend the Atlanta Forest? Anarchists who actually do praxis are where you'll find real anarchists.

I don't currently have transportation and will be heavily occupied for several months. That said, I have attended events and spoken with Food Not Bombs people, and they are amazing, really good people. I had traveled a state north to do it, though, and if my plans pan out, I intend to find and work with them (in general, not necessarily the exact same people) in the future. Working with Atlanteans are quite possible, I won't discount them but in general hope to travel northwards a bit. But who knows what tomorrow holds, I could well end up in Georgia.

Agreed, probably depends a lot on where you live though.
