  • Yes, I always form my socioeconomic conclusions in the comments sections of meme communities, they’re the best place for debate.

    Sarcasm aside, you have strong opinions for someone who doesn’t know what they’re talking about.

    Organisation doesn’t mean orders from above or coercion. People are perfectly capable of organising themselves without a master. Many cooperatives use a commissioner to organise the division of labour, but they’re crucially not a boss. Every one of their decisions can be challenged and overruled. Unlike a boss.

    The great thing about this system of non-coercion is you don’t need to participate. You can continue taking orders from someone you deem superior to yourself and we can self organise, and we can leave each other alone. No need to antagonise, because you can live your life and we can live ours.









  • Hand pulling is feasible on far more than small yards, particularly if the plan is a wildflower meadow rather than, say, vegetables.

    Why try and create a patch of wildflowers if you’re just going to spray herbicides all over it though? It defeats the purpose of the wildflowers! Unless all you care about it aesthetics, which is what this post is mocking in the first place.

    You state that the native plants win as if that’s a hardship. Native plants are of course going to win out, they’re evolved for that location’s climate. Choose native wildflowers. Help your local ecology, work with it, don’t fight it. Spraying herbicide is the plant equivalent of napalm or agent orange. It costs you time, effort, money, and more than that, your environment, and in the end you don’t even get what you’re after.

    Ignore what local businesses tell you, they’re trying to get your money, use the vast wealth of information on the internet. Let nature do its thing.
