modern self sufficiency is bull *bleep*.
When you insult my family's lifestyle, you insult me. I'm on here to share some of the experience and wisdom I've gained from living off the land in one of the most extreme places on the face of the earth. I'm here to share what I've gained as a person from interacting with and observing various native tribes. I'm here to share some of what I've learned traveling to 70 different countries on 6 continents. I'm not here to have the culmination of all of that dismissed as bull*bleep*. Please think before you speak.
With that out of the way, I would like to clarify my original point. When I talk about self-sufficency, I'm not talking about living off the land, I'm talking about a mindset. When someone gets a truck stuck here, they don't call a tow truck or a friend, they grab a shovel. It's about being able to rely on yourself no matter what the world throws at you, even if it would be easier just to get someone else to do it. It's about knowing survival isn't a right, but a privilege that must be earned every single day.
You misunderstand. The modern self sufficiency I was insulting is made up of sitting at a desk, typing and driving to the store.
