I hate the word ‘Consumer’ or I mockingly call it ‘CONSOOMER’. Because that’s to imply everyone in the world is just cattle, but with wallets. We’re no longer customers. We’re consumers now. And a consumer’s purpose is to consume shit, whatever is put out there. Got money? Shut up and consume, it’s what corporate interests and capitalism itself thrive on. Consume and consume.

    Ugh. Farmers are not stupid people in the least but I’ll be damned if even up to less than a century ago they are not always the ones thru history to be hoodwinked by the wealthy into some sort of rich man’s scheme.
