Rattling around in here...

I really wish Dreamwidth would try to gather more members. I realize it's still in Beta, but I'm starting to miss LJ :(
While I don't really mind having a somewhat secretive place to post my innermost rants and raves, I find myself missing the amount of chatter that JL has constantly.
Perhaps it's also that I'm rather alone here in my thoughts and views on life and the world.
I'm just waiting for others who share my sentiment to join up here, or at least make themselves known.
I don't even know if anyone even reads this journal of mine. But if they do, I hope it offers some perspective, and that they don't misunderstand my intentions.
But in reality, I couldn't give a damn about the latter.
This is a place, unlike LJ and most other forums online, that doesn't fall prey to the "Politically Correct" beast that devours many topics of discussion and dissent these days.
It's this PC bullshit that causes such groups and threads of harmless discussion and debate, to suddenly vanish.
But there are no communities that focus on any of my interests for discussion. And I know I'm not the only one with these interests.
Yes yes; I should start communities of my own, but I'd rather not test those waters just yet. They could harbor sharks, so to speak. I'd prefer to stay under the radar just for now.
Some random ideas however, for DW communities are as follows:
- A Nazi Fetish(uniforms etc.) community, *not* based in any politics or racism, similar to the one on LJ, but safer here. Less likely to get randomly deleted, one would hope.
- European/EuroAmerican interest group. Again, *Not* based on white power' or political themes, but the cultivation of European traditions and cultures that are being lost.
- On that note; how about something really controversial?!
How about a community for those who are European or "white" Euro Americans, to share experiences of racism against *them* from other ethnic groups, or what we seem to call "Minorities"? There is no such thing as "Reverse Racism". It's the same no matter who deals it.
Europeans/whites have been putting up with A LOT of it lately, and could use a non biased place to vent.
Just a thought.
