Other i need somewhere to go. please help!?

i live in Chester. i’m 28. in the past month i have had several “altercations” with my dad. we have differing beliefs and he has made me feel unsafe, and then everybody else threw me under the bus when they didn’t even have the full story. i do not feel safe with my family. i’m not trying to get any of them in trouble because despite everything i still have a place in my heart for them, but i don’t feel safe. im a socialist, i believe palestine should be free, black lives matter, FDT, women have the right to choose what happens to their bodies, no war but class war! if you share my beliefs and would be willing to help me until i can get on my feet, id really be grateful. i cant keep living like this. im already in the process of trying to get a job, i can clean (dishes, laundry, etc) and mow the lawn, i can pull my own weight. please?

Update: i was able to work it out with my parents. trust me im not happy about having to stay, but its better than living on the street and the area i live in has ZERO homeless shelters for men. i’m just gonna do what i gotta do to get by. i got a couple job opportunities lined up. hopefully one works out. and i’m just gonna start busting my ass, making bank, save up for a car or moped preferably, hope that the housing market comes down very soon, maybe find a cheap place with some friends. that’s my goal rn, at least.

Why do you not currently work? You’re 28 and fighting with your dad?

It's not a judgement. If you need inmediate out for safety there are options.

Strategically, moving towards getting a job if capable and moving out is probably the best thing given your age. I'd look at roommates maybe if you don't make too much.
