Thoreau hit the nail on the head so many times, what a guy. Walden helped me to look in the right direction, to rebel and to find conviction. It was when I found conviction that I also realized larping was necessary for Thoreau, because he lacked the spirit to fight. Thoreau squatted, had a poor diet choice based on fallacies and chose to live dirt poor to compromise for not complying to the system. I chose to play the game in stead, because it's a game, it can be won. I admire Thoreau, but hiding in the forest is not a solution. Building communities is.
