I live rurally so I have removed myself from society? You have some interesting ideas. Incorrect, assumptive ideas but ideas none the less.

He’s perfect. I want him.
KMAMURI@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•'Did I Miss Something?': Online Shoppers Shocked as Trump Tariffs Jack Up Prices 145%22·19 hours agoOh we still have a major fight on our hands. It was a very close outcome and only happened because we burned our number 3 and 4 parties to the ground to make it happen. That isn’t really a win. It only buys a little time to get our shit together before this happens again.
And you draw assumptions as well. I assure you I am a part of my society and fight for the things I believe in. You seem to know me so well you likely already are aware of that yet at the same time you don’t care at all.
I’m glad you studied It’s a smart thing to do. It’s a shame you are so knowledgeable yet so bound to a system that does not work for anyone and wastes the vast majority of its food in the name of capitalism. Your high horse seems to have lost its legs.
We can walk the talk and we do, so we’re pieces of shit for actually doing it. Shake your head.
I even got my ass off the couch yesterday and voted against fascism in Canada, though I don’t believe in the party or person I voted for. I’m probably a piece of shit for doing that too.
We don’t need to go to town. We grow almost all of our own food for the entire year. We don’t need movies or bars or restaurants or even…shocker…full time soul sucking jobs. though we do work for some cash flow. We have the internet and piracy, friends with back yards and basements and we can cook just fine, in fact I used to be a sous chef in a former life and is much of the reasom why we produce our own. We live on less money as a family of five than most single people do. Around ~$25,000/Canadian a year. A family of five.
Our impact is minimal compared to yours I bet, considering all my families food with the exception of a few items comes from the 250 acres of land surrounding my house and we care for that land to ensure we minimize the impact from our agriculture practices as much as we can. We use no motorized equipment and farm using regenerative practices.You probably don’t know or care what that means though. Our farm encompasses 1/4 acre. The site where our 3 bedroom home for, again a family of five, sits and is the size of an average “lawn” or “yard” here.
That land also feeds my sister’s family (4 adults who live in the city four hours away) and my father’s (2 adults). We also provide to our local food bank all season long and barter a lot with our neighbors.
And you wonder why there are monumental societal rifts between rural areas and urban. It’s because of people like you who “know better” but have zero actual knowledge or experience to back it up. Just blathering mouthpieces full of nonsense.
KMAMURI@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Carney's Liberal party wins Canadian election and completes a stunning turnaround fueled by TrumpEnglish2·21 hours agoFuck you Buffy. Another american scumbag.
A decade ago my wife and I quit our jobs packed our kids and stuff and moved 7000kms to our now rural homestead. Our closest neighbor is 2km away. Town and groceries is a half hour drive one way. We have a huge garden and laying hens. We raise our own chickens for meat as well as quail and rabbits. Our kids hunt and fish and play outside. Like we did when we were kids.
It’s fucking amazing y’all.

This could be one of the best possible outcomes we could have hoped for. Lib government with their feet to the fire and a direct hit to American style fascism. The bonus is possible record voter turnout.
Edit: and ~smol pp~ gets beaten by a seemingly, genuinely nice guy. What a stake in the heart that must be. I love it.

KMAMURI@lemmy.worldto Canada@lemmy.ca•Ford-Poilievre rift on full display as federal race upended by strategic leaks26·3 days agoWatch out for the Ford and Houston dog and pony show. They are no better then Pollievre. Just maybe a bit more subtle.
We all know about Dougie but Houston is his own brand of special as well. He recently introduced legislation in NS that would give hiring and firing authority for the auditor generals office to the sitting government.
That is one, if not the highest checks within our provincial government system. Very fascist of him. He dropped it when the people revolted immediately but even trying should be a sign of future possibilities.
Been speed running a slave class with private prisons. I believe they are prepared.
