All I'm saying, it doesn't work for "you own nothing and make them happy" world. Have you tried to live in a submarine bunk bed space? Like Bruce Willis in that 1997 SciFi movie "The Fifth Element" (a great movie, btw)? That's what they will let you have next. Would you feel groovy in those as well? Good for you.

Somehow, they always depict those tiny homes surrounded by nature. With 1-2 tenants. Imagine raising kids in there. Or having pets (a cat pooping in that one-room tiny home)?
How about 100,000 tiny homes in a ghetto setting - a refugee camp, more or less. How about 10,000,000 of those, wall-to-wall?
Don't blame the victims, dude. I was impoverished by lockdowns that reduced income in one business, and a business closure of the second business, possibly at the behest of Big Pharma. I couldn't afford the lifestyle you speak of even if I wanted it. At least I own my home now and I'm not paying any property taxes. Thankfully, I am able to have a large garden on another generous friend's rural property. We are all adapting to a new world we didn't want.
He can't imagine that people can walk outside to fulfill their need for space.
Lately I have a string of people coming to "comment first" on every post I make, and then just shit randomly. I think that may be what's going on here. I think it's one more example of the layers of psychosis present in the moment.
I get this on my posts as well, but sometimes with different issues, where people come to arrive to tell me I'm being some sort of useful idiot (meat eating, evolution, and abortion, of all things). One of the individuals who gives you problems is one of the ones who leaves rude comments on mine.
I believe there are a number of well-intentioned people who are acting out, because they are being controlled in other aspects of their lives, or their worlds are still small because they can't conceive in the new reality we're all inhabiting that many people are individuals and thus they won't be able to be pigeonholed into the old worldviews.
Actually, no, I generally don’t go into other peoples’ websites and insinuate they are evil or stupid because they eat meat, believe in evolution, or believe in viruses. But I frequently encounter this in my own website. This is not an issue of free speech but one of manners and tone and people who basically enjoy being rude.
And who started calling names again, for holding "unacceptable views"? And all I did was to express __some__ reservations about usefulness of the concept of tiny homes for most people. Not, as Mathew puts it, shit on the whole idea. But instantly: wham, zap, boom! OMG. Will know not to comment on you guys going forward, only to adore your posts with likes.
My mistake. I’m really really sorry, I apologize unreservedly. I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you, or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.
I see that you are the type of person who enjoys being rude and playing "gotcha" with opponents so you can feel intellectually superior. When I was speaking to Mathew above I wasn't actually referring to you but specifically thinking about another person who leaves these types of comments on every Substack he goes, including Mathew's and mine (his name is Ungovernable Rich) and also generally to the type of person who likes to go in other peoples' house and take a shit in their living room. If you enjoy being that type of person, that's your prerogative. It's a worse way to live than living in a RV or tiny house. I wouldn't want to be so miserable.
Just to repeat: My mistake. I’m really really sorry, I apologize unreservedly. I offer a complete and utter retraction. The imputation was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by malice, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you, or your family, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.
Stay in a big house then. Encroaching surburbia is better? Bruce is a zombie now. Kids are now an improbability anyway. Your 'submarine bunk bed space' exists on film, and in your mind, but that is not reality. Spike/gonads/next generations effed. It is a really good and viable option to make 1/4 lot houses, and it is being done. Would you rather 100,000 tents?
No encroaching suburbia after this cull takes full effect. But have you seen videos of those sleeping pods for a night in China, or Japan? It IS the thing already in places, if not yet in NY City. It's coming...

So, yes... another layer of the psychosis.
I take it you speak of yourself too? As soon as you encounter a view not perfectly aligned with yours? LOL

So it's not by conscious choice, right? What would you rather?
