Mr. Anderson

The perfection of a convenient, efficient distribution network is undoubtebly a necessary component of our "modern" existance.  The problem is that it has all but eliminated local butchers, bakers, and small farms. We are so addicted to technology, and think we can cancel hatred, racism, and discrimination by boycotting and condemning guys like Joel Salatin for being white supremacists, simply because they get up in the morning and feed their herbivorous solar converting carbon sequestering fertilization units.

You can live in the Matrix so long as you are ingesting the choices that are being offered.  The lies and disinformation that is being served by the right and left are equally as unplatable. The red pill might appear to be the more logical choice for some… but it really truly becomes an addiction. Right wing disinformation is being pumped in with such incredible speed that it makes doing conclusive fact based research nearly impossible.

I read a sign saying:  Freedom Convoy 2022 - Supporting LGBTQ Truckers. If that was what it was really about would the Emergency Act has been invoked? Absolutely not. Slaves, puppets, and masters...the corruption abounds. There is certainly some remedy in the common law, but it is costly and it can only go so far. Contracting with the devil is still a dangerous game regardless of your uppercase or lower case claim to fame.   

Regenerative agriculture, permaculture, and living holistically inspires hope. It is so absolutely critical to recognize that despite how smart we think we are, nature does things better than we ever could... but we also have the ability to form and shape the outcome. There is a significant difference between reacting to a situation and responding to it with predetermined action. We can't solve the world's problems, but we can work towards self sustainability, find ways to meet the needs of the local community

 “The tragic reality is that very few sustainable systems are designed or applied by those who hold power, and the reason for this is obvious and simple: to let people arrange their own food, energy and shelter is to lose economic and political control over them. We should cease to look to power structures, hierarchical systems, or governments to help us, and devise ways to help ourselves.”
