Hell yeah.
Neighbor of two weeks approached me for some plumbing repair work at his house recently. We got to talking about a lot of things; where he immigrated from (he is Viet) general outlook on the neighborhood, that sorta shit.

Talking to him, i could sorta tell where his politics lie, but he was hiding his power levels i think because of how i present visually- beard, overalls, gray hair; i look like a old guy who listens to fox news probably.

I took a chance and just told him, my politics are not fleshed out well, but i lean further left than democrats. We talked some about his girlfriend who plans to immigrate to the US if she can (she is in Dagestan), which brought up more conversations (he speaks english, vietnamese, and some russian) i listened to him talk about his upbringing, leaving Saigon when he was six months old.

I hold no fantasies of creating a neighborhood cabal or anything like that, im just so thrilled to have a neighbor who holds similar outlooks to myself. I might have sqealed at some point i was so stoked. He has a much better grasp on theory than i do, and i look forward to asking stupid questions of him so that i can flesh out how i view the world.

I just wanted to share this somewhere.
