I know. You'd have to have your own forest and farm land, raise sheep to make yarn, etc. Best we can do is as local and artisan as possible
Even then, I live on stolen land. I didn't steal it myself, but at some layer I'm complicit, because I bought it from someone who bought it from someone else... Until you get to the guy that stole it in the first place, and he probably stole it because of the value it would have in the future. I don't want to be here, but I don't have anywhere else to go. Even my own backyard is rooted in human misery.
We have to move forward and make reparations where possible, and try to live a better consumer lifestyle. But until billionaires are brought into check this world is rife with exploitation.
Agreed, but it can be hard to find the path when it hasn't really been used for decades. At a certain point, you're just trampling a new path to somewhere, over the stuff that is just trying to exist in the gaps.
