        No it isn’t. There’s nothing stopping us from, for example, growing our own crops and trading them to each other. And we can do that whether or not it’s legal.

        Point in fact, triggering them into outlawing something so harmless would kind of be the point. Then it would force a confrontation they would lose because so many people would be negatively affected – especially the right wing which already does this in their rural communities.

        🤔 Come to think of it, it might be one of the better ways to solve the problem than any other idea anyone has come up with…

            You don’t have to grow your own crops. You could buy vegetables from a neighbor with a garden, or offer a service. The point is more about subverting the multinational conglomerate machines that drive our current economy

        It’s the only way we’d be able to organize and fight a revolution to get them off of our backs though.

        Plus it can be decentralized so that they can’t take it down by force.
