I think it's like panic buying of toilet paper: you do it because it makes you feel you have some control over your future, not because it makes sense/would work out in practice.

there was a post a few days ago about Australia: home-farmed eggs have 40x more lead than the industrial ones, because of unchecked pollution in non-agricultural areas...
well, that's what happens to me, even with a small quantity, every single time. And I know it's the chili because it burns like the mouth did the previous day
this has been my experience with college too... just a waste of time to satisfy the bureaucrats. They think that winning a silly exam proves anything but your willingness to waste your time memorizing answers.
it's only gotten better if you look at food access, but food access != happiness; depression is rampant because we are being forced to live against our nature. I assure you, I hate being alive in the current world, even if my stomach is full.
Moreover even that is most likely only temporary, we are living inside a consumerist bubble that will soon burst (growing social unrest, ravaging pollution, probably a major war) leaving a horrible mess behind (we don't know how to endure physical discomfort anymore).
or perhaps they are just fed up with bowing to a government that doesn't work for them? The USA was founded by terrorists too, from the POV of Britain...
why must be people be "rehabilitated"? killing, including killing for play, is perfectly normal among all carnivorous mammals, and we are carnivorous mammals, like it or not.
it's not murderers or rapists who are in the wrong, but "civilization" which forces people to behave unnaturally
while I agree that all dogs should be put down, the issue is much more complex than this. What even is civilization? there are plenty of civilizations where killing the weak is praised and encouraged.
