OK Ai slop but seriously, i tried for about 40 mins to recreate this in Kleki and i gave up. should i give up the idea because i cant create it without AI?

Personally I think 25 years. What do you think?

During the Great Depression, when banks foreclosed on farms, neighbors often showed up at the auctions together.

They’d bid only a few cents, and return the land to the family that lost it. Sometimes a noose hung nearby as a warning to outsiders not to profit from someone else’s ruin.

It was rough, but it worked, communities protected each other when the system wouldn’t.

If a collapse like that happened today, do you think people would still stand together or has that kind of solidarity disappeared? Could it happen again?
