Why not give it a go and attempt to sustain yourself by foraging for a week?

You will find it is not as easy as you think. Now imagine an entire city attempting to do the same and you will quickly realize how dependent on modern farming / transportation we have become.

Honestly, if I hadn't devoted so much of my life and education to learning a White collar job, I would have definitely preferred going the more solitary and remote life.

Especially as you get older and see so much decadence all around you. Children eating dangerous fast food since they're Babies, Boomers glued to the Television all day thinking it's Jesus Christ, and then we import millions of foreigners whose only purpose is to consume and pay taxes.

Is this really what the future of humanity is suppose to look like? Amazon warehouse cuck slaves who only exist to make the 1% rich? What happened to raising family? What happened to eating healthy food with no preservatives? Did humans really evolve to be the superior species, if our future looks exactly like a caged animal who requires assistance?

I really enjoyed this documentary about Tinker's Bubble, a group of people living together on the land. Although their politics are probably the opposite of ours they formed an implicitly white community. Interestingly the sex roles are soon reasserted once there is physical work to be done

I thought about making a post about it but couldn't quite think how to make it relevant. In my experience you really need to find a woman suited to rural life and most women, the one's I've met anyway, don't want to live in a shack.

Another problem is that cities are centers of power. The Benedict option merely prolongs white flight. Ideally cities and country would form a nexus with each reinforcing the other.
