Fuck, now I have to become an anprim.
Is that like a Primitive Technology YouTuber who just shares their clay bullshit?
Anarcho-Primitivists ('Anprims') are people who think that the industrial revolution is a mistake and we should return to ~~monke~~ stick. Many believe that the Neolithic agricultural revolution was also a mistake, and we should return to hunter-gatherers.
Their big solution is to... undo history.
Something that has never once successfully been done.
The Legalists will get it right one of these days
It's worth noting that most an-prims are mostly or entirely doing it for the meme.
That's good then.
That sounds like we should gather them up, find a isolated area (I hear there are some great areas in the russian hinterland that are open), and just leave them there.
Like a Luddite?
Same basic principle, but instead of "Stop all progress now", it's "Reverse all progress, billions must die"
AnPrims will actually fight you on the genocide argument, because they don't connect lack or destruction of infrastructure with death of those dependent on it: "They would die in The Collapse™ anyway ", because it's a survivalist prepper doomsday cult.
I, for one, consider it a good thing that more of us don't take advice from people with fetishes for cholera and pigshit.
ONE ~~MILLION~~ BILLION LIVES
Hey, leave Primitive Technology out of this. He's just a chad trying to build shit with the soothing sounds of nature.
