Only someone who has never done farming before in their lives would think that this statement has truth to it. This is not easy work. A light switch does not suddenly flip on in your head when you are starving. There is a reason why so many people are not farmers anymore and that is, because it is fucking hard work. It takes knowledge and experience in order to do it right.

I would like to see someone who is starving and never hunted a day in their lives to go catch their food everyday in a survival situation.

I would like to see someone who never farmed, or worked on a farm to suddenly figure out how to do it at a large enough scale to feed their family.

The thing is like many things in life many self-entitled humans have become accustomed to belittling people who choose a life that is hard work worth doing. Thinking that it doesn't require any substantial knowledge and experience. Anyone who has went to college, or studied farming practices independently will tell you there is a lot of math and science that goes into doing it.

I know this from both sides of the fence. Both as someone who was full of himself and thought that my first season I would be able to grow anything and everything. Then got hardly any yields and some stuff that I planted never grew at all. All the way up to studying about the subject matter, reaching out to local farmers, and getting the knowledge and experience required. Until I could finally feed myself and had more food that I needed. So I could share it with others.

You all better hope the farmers don't all die suddenly. Most of you would be royally fucked and die before the end of winter. So get off your high horses and grocery carts. Pick up a fucking book and start studying just in case shit happens. I know I will be perfectly fine right here in the wilderness with everything I will ever need in order to thrive. While most of you play out mad max in the cities and suburbs. Good luck with that.
