Looking for communities (virtual or otherwise) that focus on lefty/radical/anti-authoritarian uses and development of science and technology. Like open-source organizing software, post-capitalist robots, DIY biology - that kind of thing, where the focus is on empowering people rather than making profit.

Interested in forums, mailing lists, chatrooms, zines, video channels, podcasts, (micro-)blogs... anything!
Politically, particularly hoping for things aligned with the libertarian left.

Some examples of what I'm hoping to find:
- many IRL volunteer-run hackerspaces fit the bill
- Taylor Alexander's youtube channel
- "Fully Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism" as a technological goal
- hackaday sometimes has posts that fit, though it's definitely not their focus
