Hello Mastodon world! I’m interested in connecting with people trying to make a difference in the lives of victims from war and atrocities - past and present. I’m a disabled veteran, and my biggest frustration now is this feeling like I’m not doing enough to help those in this world who need it the most. I don’t really have any interest in protesting or writing about the problems. Instead, I’m hoping to connect with those who are getting uncomfortable and even unsafe in order to help victims.

@Philosophymac @Philosophymac Your best chance of making connections is to use some hashtags like #veteran.

You also might want to add the hashtag #Introduction or #Intro to get some connections.

Hello my friend, and welcome to Mastodon! Your cause is important, and I hope you find the connections you're seeking.

Pro-tip: Add hashtags to your post (you're allowed to edit it). Relatively few will see your post otherwise. Hashtagging 'DisabledVeteran' (with capital D & V) for example, will expose your post to everyone who has that as an interest. Also: tag the word 'Introduction', as many people seek such posts in order to help you gain visibility.
