Forget your “dying clean” baloney. Stop fetishizing a civil war.
I’ve got things I want to do in the coming years that don’t involve dying to some right wing death squad or dysentery.
Does Raft require co-op to be fun?
I recently picked up The Forest and I found that The Forest is tough to enjoy without co-op because of enemy difficulty.
Does Raft suffer from this?
Lol, Mr. Duncan does provide a very entertaining pop-history podcast don’t get me wrong, but please don’t go quoting him as a reference.
I think you and I are arguing two different things, your source lumps together all the deaths during the Revolution, including Reactionary military actions while I am arguing specifically that very few people of the 3rd estate were killed extra judicially as a method of “terror” by the guillotine.
Best of luck in your slow road to fascism. I hope you succeed in improving your lot with non-violent means. Maybe if the revolutionaries asked nicely Louis would’ve just enacted the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen voluntarily.
Do you have a source for that claim? As far as I know most of the people guillotined were emigres or members of the upper class who went against the prevailing political party at the time.
Many commoners did die in the Revolution, but they mostly died in the infernal columns or similar military actions in the Vendee region and other reactionary uprisings.
I can see that this is super funny to you, but some people with chronic allergies can’t enjoy their vacations or go about their lives because inconsiderate people demand to bring their pets to public areas such as hotels or stores.
If you and your wife have never tried venison before I would recommend you find a source for a few pounds of wild venison to try before you make the time/money investment into hunting. It would suck to spend $1000 on gun, tag, time, and butcher fees just to learn that you don’t like the taste. And it definitely has a taste, I wouldn’t call it bad, but it is different.
My family only accepts my venison ground in recipes with plenty of seasoning e.g. pasta and tacos.
1 deer will definitely supplement your meat diet, but it won’t allow you to maintain the standard American 1 meat item per lunch/supper diet. I killed 2 deer this year and I ended up with about 130lbs of meat total after butchering and jerky. That was on private land. Expect less success on public land.
I’m asking from a place of ignorance about your POV, but why is trespassing on “private property” bullshit?
Huh, do you have a brand recommendation for a 75 dollar installed inline coolant heater?
Idk how engine heaters in Scandinavia work, but in North America they only heat the oil pan. So your oil won’t be too thick when you start your engine, but it wont heat your cabin.
For that we would need to buy a shore power coolant pump/heater. Which exists but the extra 1000 dollar price doesn’t lend itself to popularity.
No more monkeys jumping on the bed?
You cannot feed 8 billion people with the arable land that we have available without synthetic fertilizer.
https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/world-population-with-and-without-fertilizer
Even if we were to Thanos snap the world population and feed those people with only compost/manure/night soil, a large percentage of the labor force would need to go into food production, and cheap food would no longer be a possibility.
Farmers are using all the manure that they have available in the most efficient manner that the market will bear right now and even then I don’t know about any for profit farmer in my extension office who doesn’t use additional synthetic fertilizer.
Yeah and it didn’t have an affect on slavery as a market force at all.
The Caribbean slave colonies were still the biggest profit producing colonies that the European powers had because of their cane sugar production.
Little people like us sure can help, but what we really need is government policy to force change. There are always going to be too many people driven by cost rather than the ethics of an issue.
Sorry, I think you misunderstood my intent.
Per you, “That’s false and offensive stereotyping.” “Stop trying to make stuff up.”
You accused /u/paddirn of lying and other worse things. I was just trying to point out that they were referencing a specific event that has happened.
I didn’t say anything about judging all Muslims based on the actions of this one city council.
For anyone else who might be reading this discussion. Federatingistoohard is intent on lying about this topic for some reason.
My source details the entire state of Illinois.
One of the most agriculturally productive regions in the world.
I could do this exercise for all 50 states and the results would be similar. South Western States and California would have lower livestock usage percentages. The plain states would have higher percentage.
To any one who might be reading this conversation, I want you to understand that anyone in the industry can easily tell that federatingtoohard obviously has no experience with current methods of animal cultivation.
Grazing did work back in the day when you had 10 acres to every head and you didn’t care if your cattle starved in the winter because grass doesnt grow. But now those farmers are out of business because they were out competed by the ranchers that fattened up their cattle with fodder and grains.
Even cattle that have near infinite grazing land on BLM property require calorie supplementation with grain and fodder. The amount depends on the cattle density, annual rainfall, and the local soil productivity.
But the specific thing that Paddirn is referencing DID happen?
Here’s the data for Illinois: https://www.nass.usda.gov/Quick_Stats/Ag_Overview/stateOverview.php?state=ILLINOIS
27,000,000 tillable acres total
22,752,030 acres used for livestock/feed production
That leads to a figure of 84% of tillable land in Illinois used for livestock production. So Mr. Bomb is actually underselling how wasteful livestock production is.
Yes some small scale farmers allow their cattle to graze, but on any for profit farm here in the Midwest US, cattle don’t get anywhere near 50% of their calories from grazing.
That is not how Western cattle farming works. As someone in the industry I can confidently say that no cow sold to a processor get a majority of their calories through grazed uncultivated grassland.
That is a feasible strategy for subsistence farming, but not in our for-profit farming model.
I drive a prius as my main farm vehicle and for my factory job. With fold down seats I haven’t had any issues with hauling stuff.
If I’m doing a project that requires 4x8 sheets or 12’ long boards I get them delivered or I rent a truck.
