I think it is less than being numerous

lol Chopin, we dont mean surive as in no one takes them over. We mean it in a sense of them not falling apart internally

i think if they were going to grow to such large numbers they would have by now

@Panaffles Only survival matters. If you get killed early, it is just as damning as failed system.

i live in an area thats surrounded by minanites

when any minority group starts to coagulate around a form of government separate from their own country, that's when they get WACO'd

not just numbers

which is like amish lite

im not sure how that relates

waco, was the branch davidians

what's wrong with WACO?

they didn't want to pay taxes for land they paid for in full and for that they got killed?

clearly we know the amish are not a threat, the reason we brought up the amish in the first place was how they can manage to not fall apart

they were much different they had more of a militia style life

they were hosite anti government

they worshipped someone as an authority figure who was separate from the state. that's why they took him out.

well

the whole building out*

theyre are other communities that do the same

the branch davidians ran afoul of the government

what a shitty name for a cult anyways

same happened in ones town

it's not even a cool name, like, come on

Imagine if Amish had guns and enforced territory with arms....

jonestown

then theyde be in trouble

they dont though

but the amish do not have weapons

imagine if the Amish had a church that started to assume authority over Amish people

just cows and stuff

id hate to be amish

the amish do have a church that assumes authority over them

i feel they like to seperated

tbh i envy the amish

So if the government wants an oil field, in the middle of Amish land, what would they do? Step aside and say, please master yes master.

i would never do good in a commune, i like being connected to a large nation

idk why

no i doubt that

you know

They are the best possible tenets of American. The best possible peasants.

but ive never heard of any oil reserves in amish country

hippie communes were way bigger than any of these tiny amish communities

which hippy communes?

Rural China.

delete this immediately

i dont know anything about chinese hippy comunes so i cant say

does china have communes lol

id be surprised

those would get shut down quick, id think

Why, are chink not allowed compassion?

rural chinese are

horrifying people

lmao

how so

they're like

ok

I'll simplify it

please do

If a slant eye gets drunk, how does he even see?

he sees perfectly fine, its the opposite

20/20 vision

you live in a country with an education system and a beaurocracy that has you hating life from the point of birth

theres like twenty eye types in asia

At least round eye has some redundancy.

there's no access to water or electricity and you're stuck with broken teeth and handmedown tools

how does that make them horrifying people though

while constantly hearing rumors about the consumer culture in the big cities

sounds like the catskills

Please don't mention cats.

ptsd

im sorry

meanwhile, attempting to practice traditional values will get you targeted by the government

so you can't do anything but hate everything

rural china is hell

ive heard stories about china

so youre saying they hate everything? and thats what makes the horrifying

i knew a young chinese guy in college he was not remotely eager to go back

all chinese hate everything

rural chinese hate everything the most

Rural China = Better than Anarchism

rural china = poor peasants

i pity

more like serfs with no direction or future

that makes me feel bad for them

my grandfather and greatgandparents and so on were hillbillies in the northeastern mountains

I wonder when there will be a revolution in China...

no electricity no indoor plumbing

he said those were the best days of his life

i live in a third world country surrounded by poverty. i dont find them horrifying, it just makes me want to help them

>revolution in china
>Chiang Kaishek rises from the grave and retakes the whole mainland

we could fast forward society into the hunger games

That's not so bad.

as long as i am in the rich af districts

the capital lol

50 years ago everyone had no plumbing in Australia.

ill take district 12

Australia is full of prisoners and natives

bogans?

Australia will be a currency slave

sorry Chopin
