Anthony J Malone
2025-08-19 21:34:29 +0000 UTCIs the Hobo Convention a secret?
Joshua Delman
2025-08-19 21:27:11 +0000 UTCFirst, I am a huge fan and legit love the work you do but… Please do not expose this culture to the masses. I’ve been a lifelong train hopper and graffiti writer and these subcultures have been DEVASTATED by mass communication and the proliferation of the information about these cultures. It’s incredibly detrimental and I genuinely can barely take it anymore. Sometimes it is best left to the shadows. You are just making it harder. This isn’t a game and the more info there is out there about what we do, the more unnecessarily dangerous it becomes.
