There are some VERY basic points i made. Which seem to have been almost completely lost on you. Seems you are more interested in being right About your very limited narrative than the truth.Riiiiiiiight ... 0.01% vs 35% is a "small" error.
You respond to that gargantuan correction in the very figure that is the foundation of your entire point of view by claiming that a huge majority of that 35% will be community gardens ... somehow failing to notice that the "huge majority" is actually only a little over 7%.
What's adorable about this is how you post screeds of unsubstantiated drama queen hyperbole in which you massively exaggerate the flaws of the 99.99%, but when your own gargantuan flaw - the tendency to spout utter bollocks which has no relationship to reality - is exposed you run in the opposite direction and attempt to play them down.
Hilarious. You're quite the character. Please never change.
C'mon bro, don't cry ... if just you'd been able to calm down a little you'd have noticed it's not that the "larger scope" of your idea has been "ignored" ... it's that it's been destroyed.
You're somehow possessed by this unfounded, fanciful, elitist, egotist notion that unlike you, who is SO VERY SPECIAL, "99.99%" of human beings can't adapt and learn the basic skills needed for food production, when in actual fact there are mountains of evidence that human beings, especially in The West, have been doing exactly that already for at least a decade.
The sharp increase in folks (including a shitload of millennials) growing their own food in the wake of the GFC strongly suggests that
You talked about growing food as if it's some kind of "lost wisdom", as if it's The Ways of the Jedi and you're Luke Skywalker or some such mystical bollocks. Did I ignore that? Or did I responded DIRECTLY to this supposedly "ignored larger scope" of yours by pointing out that 1/3 of households are already deploying that supposedly "lost wisdom" and that half of my suburban/urban friends have vegetable gardens and that the 8 year olds of 2019/2020 are hands-on in growing their food at suburban elementary schools?
- the skills of our grandparents aren't even close to as lost as you hysterically claim and
- human beings learn and adapt real quick when they're motivated to.
But suuuuuure, your precious "larger scope" is being ignored.
"What about the other 65%?" Why is it you fail to grasp that the vast majority of them would pick up the very simple skills of food production real, real quick when properly motivated to, especially since a good chunk of each community already has those skills to pass on to everyone else?
Drama queens gonna drama queen I guess.
You made a long post, all the while saying absolutely nothing and addressing nothing of what I've said
Apparently you think in a crisis, majority of the overweight and completely inept masses seen on supersize me will just take up self sufficiency and homesteading overnight. IN CITIES, where MOST are unable to
If that isn't delusional, I'm not sure what is
Posting meme gifs doesn't suddenly make your shitty arguments better. It only proves you to be a fool. How old are you? Over 40?
Sad stuff my friend. Sad indeed.
