Funny, because I’m a native of turtle island, and happen to be very involved with indigenous land protection across multiple continents in collaboration with literally hundreds of unique cultures, all of which are protecting lands and water.

Then this is a good opportunity for you to check your confirmation bias. You and I both know you're not replying to me with a coconut radio.

Funny that you think that the only way to protect things is by being a Luddite or something

You haven’t done a good job of explaining why thus far.

Other people seem to have no issue understanding. I think my coconut comment was on point, and the fact that you responded referencing Luddites shows I've explained myself perfectly fine.

What specifically don't you understand about me saying I think this is hypocritical?

That it implies that the only people capable of making critiques of society are people who reject material reality and try to live a thousand years ago.

sure, but some critiques make more sense than others

That's right, some critiques do make more sense then others! Gold star! 🌟
