I am sorry to pour water on your fire here. And I am with you on the grounds of land reclamation for the masses. But this is not civilisation. And only a bunch of dropouts would really want to live in those disgusting conditions. We have evolved passed living like that. I mean. Would you expect your 80 year old gran to live in a dump like that? What is the point of beating the elite just to return to living in those medieval conditions. That is just doing the elite’s job for them. That reminds me of a form of Communism. We are entitled to live in proper houses. Yes. Claim land for growing food. But we are entitled to live as civilised Humans. Also from what I have seen from earlier videos. You are still relying on people from society to give you the things you need. Self sufficiency is about building from raw materials. This seems more like living a derelict lifestyle.
