Don't worry, though, we're in great shape because most people don't work for the government or military. They work for a different set of corrupt private industries like food, medical, and mainstream media, where they make the bulk of their money by lying to people and making them fat, sick, and depressed.

Yeah, it's an ugly situation all around.

Seriously, if people learned how to be healthy, which is very easy, it would bankrupt a considerable portion of Western society. I'm not sure what to do about that.

Keep stacking, growing yer own food, loving your family. Its all we can do. Hopefully by living such a good life we will be pillars in our community and someone to emulate.

I appreciated the roll down hill

Well said, and I agree. Living right is the only thing I know to do. It would be nice to awaken people to a better life, but in practice it rarely helps, though God knows I've tried.

All the best.

People love to shit on the gov. But truthfully, everything sucks. Everyone is corrupt.

I think the larger the entity, the more likely it's corrupt or lacking in empathy, and that's mostly just human nature.

People in smaller groups, like in small towns, small businesses, and families, are in close contact with each other. We behave quite differently face-to-face, with people we know, because rewards and consequences come directly from those affected by our speech and actions.

But when decision-makers are separated from the people they affect, like in governments, large corporations, and big cities, they lose the positive effects of those intimate connections. They lose their empathy because they aren't face-to-face with the consequences of their harmful behaviors toward people.

Not to mention, psychopaths and sociopaths are attracted to larger centers of power and control.

Small towns and small businesses are still mostly full of good-hearted, passionate people who care about contributing to the world around them. They crave that intimacy and connection.

That's why Nostr is so much better than the massive platforms. This is a far smaller group of higher-quality people who seek a better experience and more intimate connections. They care most about the things that really matter in life.
