All I can say is freedom isn’t free. Maybe that’s something Canadians need to learn, I don’t know - I don’t really want to assume. But I got a cascadian flag tattoo on my left arm like a soldier’s patch for a reason. I’ve been thinking in neomedieval military terms since I was a teenager at an alternative high school in the late 2000s.

Freedom needs to be constantly defended. If you can’t give up any kind of tribute to a governing authority or series of governing authorities to defend it for you or don’t find any existing entity as authentically defending it then you frankly have to defend it yourself. Same principle for arguing in favor of participatory democracy - if you don’t participate in democracy in some meaningful way you are bound to lose it.

We need to look at this thing called ‘adapting in place’. I think this is just such a complicated situation that people just need to figure out what’s going on around them, at least for the time being. Radical simplification - corporate greed, yes, but it’s still complicated as to what exactly we do about it.

I’m providing my perspective. It’s valid. Not trolling.

Seems like an overwhelming number of you are sex negative and thus poorly educated on here. Lemmy sure has turned out to be a disappointing website since I started on here. At least I know where Lemmy stands. Improve yourselves, please. You have more literature to read. More to learn.

I actually have mental health struggles. I take meds every day. I’m at baseline. When someone says “seek help” and I’m fine it’s insulting and demeaning. I’m doing nothing wrong. You’re being rude to me. This whole thread is about a food crisis that a lot of people on here agree is happening, most in fact, and you are in denial of their experience with this aggressive rhetoric. If you think oil production is unrelated to food production there are better ways to express yourself on that.

I think you are part of that other completely different culture that is now colliding with ours and we just have no clue how to talk to you people and you have no clue how to talk to us. You seem very rude to me. What makes sense to you and which you take for granted seems completely nonsensical to me, and vice versa. I don’t even know where to begin. It’s like you’re speaking a different language entirely.
