A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.

A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.

RULES:

1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.

2 No Trolling

3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.

4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.

5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.

6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

If you watch Fall of Civilizations, it seems like food production collapse happens in parallel with societal collapse. Between climate change and plummeting insect populations, growing crops is already unstable.

Wow. Guess we'll starve maybe.

Glad I started growing some veg of my own recently. Still got a few litres of apple chutney I made from foraged apples last year, might go for acorn foraging this year, very high energy density compared to apples. Need to try new ways of cooking them though, thinking of cold processing them this time and store ground up, then add some of it with oats to make porridge.

Apples are your sugar and your fiber if you choose to use them that way.

Acorns... all I can think of is Sandra Lee's Kwanza cake which one reviewer called an "edible hate crime."

Tried acorns before with hot processing them and they were just kinda bland. Not unpleasant, just not much to them. I am thinking of trying cold processing because that shouldn't remove as much of the oils and might retain some more flavour. Does take a lot longer to remove the tannin that way though.

Why would Biden do this?

The cops will enforce starvation. Kill them before they kill you.
