    I got laid off, didn’t look for a job, and moved to the woods. I no longer participate in the economy.

      So you’ve ruined the woods and now it’s turning into the city you were living in.

      There’s no such thing as “living in the woods” because humans transform any biome they move to.

          Humans are not a part of nature, beavers are. If a human goes to live somewhere other than a city, they destroy that ecosystem and it becomes something else.

          Either you’re lying about “living in the woods” (which is the best case scenario) or you’re fucking up one of the only natural ecosystems left.

              I hike constantly. I spend more time in nature than you do, which is why I care about it so much, unlike you. I just don’t live there. Because I’m an environmentalist.

              Have you learned anything yet? Nature is for visitation only, living there destroys it.

                Just curious, I’m guessing you see the downvotes - what’s your interpretation of them? Is it causing you to reflect on what you’re saying?

                  Not at all. The opposite, actually. Lemmy is toxic as hell, worse than reddit ever was. I get piled on for being right all the time. If you don’t confirm to popular opinions here, people will bully you as a group and say some seriously ableist shit. Lemmy is the most anti-autistic online space I’ve ever seen. “Touch grass” is a placeholder for much worse shit.

                  I think the guy I’m responding to is a troll. He “lives in the woods” and yet is able to respond to my comments within minutes of me posting them?

                  They got caught in a lie and doubled down, simple as.

                You know, nature will ultimately be fine. As a geologist, you have to look at the big picture. Mass extinctions come and go, some species survive and take their share, and so on. I don’t count on humans surviving, but that’s our problem, not nature’s.
