here's one to chew on
https://medium.com/insurge-intelligence/beyond-extinction-12daed1bc851
"Dr. Alexander shows that
voluntary simplicity is the only pathway that avoids
civilizational collapse. It does so because it entails the
fundamental systemic transformation of civilization — the
transition to a way of being which does not eschew technology, but
uses the best of human technology to re-wire civilization from the
ground up.
"At the core of this
radical re-wiring is a transformation of the human relationship
with nature: moving away from top-down modes of political and
economic organization, to participatory models of grassroots
self-governance, localized sustainable agriculture, and
equity in access to economic production."

Good
article but imo wrong in talking only about food sustainable
production which is only a very small part of the world we live
in. Again imo everything and it's dog is subverted by
corporations.
Take the disease(health) industry for instance. Many very common
diseases can be prevented by very cheap and readily available
miens. And is there not a war being waged against these simple
miens? Maybe 20 years ago a few doctors experimented by giving a
good dose of a few vitamins to everybody who entered their
hospital as a patient. Turned out negative side effects of all
procedures dropped by 60 % and patients could be released from
hospital on average in half the time they did before. These
doctors lost their job and the vitamins were stopped and
everything went back to normal. Influence of corporations maybe?
The legal system is subverted by corporations just as much. There
are more than a million people in jail forced to do slave labour
for some corporations.
The military industrial complex is permanently at war in some 50
different countries wiping out ecosystems and indigenous
populations before we can learn too much from them just to make
elbow room for corporations.
Science? 80 % of all scientific articles now are "made" by and for
corporations and just 6 publishers allied with corporations decide
what will be published.
Corporations are now extracting almost twice the resources our
planet is capable of giving sustainably. Sustainability is not a
word you will find much used by corporations except for propaganda
purposes.
However important food is there are multiple other problems.
Submit to the latest enforced vaccinations or resist. Either way
you may find that other problems become more acute than food even.
