I got a question.
I've seen people on twitter argue about this a few days ago,can't find the tweets but regardless.
People were saying that all those "I wanna live in a mountain village instead of the city and be self sufficient" takes are conservative in nature.
Anyone want to tell me more about that or is that bullshit?

Kinda in the sense that I always see right wingers fetishizing the whole rugged individualist "living off the land" thing without GUBERMENT freebies
And pushing the sentiment that an ideal world is one where everyone is atomized and self-sufficient. and I would say the problem with that is that, in practice, it only benefits the capitalist class and leaves everyone else out to dry
Just feels like a big cope that absolves you of pesky things like empathy or working with other people
Tbh from all the rly big subreddits cth was the least stoopid
But then again
Not a very high bar
Bc reddit
radlibs who find left subreddits and then turn them into radlib central is like internet settler colonization

R/latestagecapitalism another one
A rare one in the opposite direction is stupidpol
Wasn't always that bad
But after a while their whole gimmick became "we're more leftist bc we don't talk about racism"
And then they're all just classic european anti-immigration socdems
Americans always think they discovered something new when they're like yo what if we had more social programs but also didn't let in any immigrants bro have you heard of europe?

Yeah I've seen this too that's why I asked I was kinda confused before
Also idk if thats an american thing because as far as I'm aware(in my country at least) living off the land was always communal
