1/ you skimmed the thread...at best I didn't claim that doing any of these things is impossible ... I do most of these things myself I plant orchards, plant gardens, log trees, raise chickens, pigs, and sheep, slaughter them, and butcher themhttps://twitter.com/Empty_America/status/1487211234839597058 …

3/ OP raises 10 or 15 pigs on 30 rural acres, as a full-time job, I think. ...and yet he's suggesting that suburban folks could raise 10 pigs on 0.5 acres. His response to criticism is to say that people are "Lolbertardians coping and seething"

8/ What have I said that's "very negative"
@ploughmansfolly ? What have I said that's blackpilled? I think that I'm realistic. I've told people that I consider homesteading fun. I've also told people that a 1/2 acre weekend garden is unrealistic.https://twitter.com/ploughmansfolly/status/1487214059082723338 …Show this thread -

11/ Hobby farming is hard work. Butchering pigs is hard work. Having a 700 square foot garden is hard work. I tell people this, and then tell them about techniques to make it easier. ...and you're upset that I'm giving people realistic info?https://twitter.com/ploughmansfolly/status/1487214957636816898 …

12/ > he's just trying to sell his book I am very well compensated at my job, and writing pays very little. Every time I take off from contract work to write, I lose tens of thousands of dollars.

12/ ...and thats OK! If you want to live in the city, do so. If you want 2 chickens, do so. If you want a herd of sheep and some pigs, do so. It's all fine! There's no one right answer!https://twitter.com/LadyPrusma/status/1487216706342862848?t=QIHLpdOhEhBzKr0Yj5Pzcw&s=19 …

13/ So far the haters have called me a grifter, a black piller, a lolbertarian, and "full of cope". Not one, though, has identified a single error in my thread.

14/ 100% agreed. Make a 25 ft^2 garden. Have fun. If you want, expand it next year.https://twitter.com/BlnsGldo/status/1487221232646991883?t=m4dvuqPN3c6Fs2OgwtDLqA&s=19 …
