Hmm, so what stops you from speaking with those people? Is there one group or social movement that grabs you? Is there some obviously wrong thing happening that you can see going a different and better way? It doesn't seem like it would cost anything but time to make some moves in that direction, so obviously I don't really understand your situation and what you've said about it.

I would love to talk more about this with you. But it can open up topics that are too private. If so, feel free to PM me.

I am not a socially-oriented person, but I grew up amongst socially-involved people so I have learned a little bit. Still, I have an outsider perspective, and that can sometimes be useful.
