I took part in one of Peter's Rewilding 101 online courses in 2021 - it was a thrilling insight into humanity and the way we relate with the world. Rewilding isn't just for species and ecosystems it's for humans too.

It’s pretty amazing how little the average person knows about #human #history. It’s not taught in most schools, and unless you major in #anthropology you may never come across the information.

I’ve always been passionate about keeping a shared definition of #rewilding. While I actually do use many products that help alleviate the deleterious effects of living in a #society that is mismatched with how #humans have #evolved, it pains me to see people stop there.

ICE agents grabbed a 16-year-old asylum seeker--which they aren't supposed to do They kept him from his parents -which they aren't supposed to do They shipped him out of state, to a Christian ministry, which they aren't supposed to do. Then they *lost* him. www.startribune.com/how-ice-labe...

Did you know humans didn’t start farming because it was a more efficient way to get calories than hunting and gathering? There are many theories as to why certain #humansocieties began #farming, but the reality is that no one knows. What we do know, is that it certainly wasn’t for #efficiency.

DID YOU KNOW…. #Humans are not innately flawed animals. What we call “Humans” (The Homo Genus) evolved at least 2.5 million years ago. Our current species, #HomoSapiens, hasn’t changed significantly in the last 200,000 years. If humans were innately flawed we would not have #survived this long.

Many #ancestralskills today are created with an individualist mindset, #frictionfire being one of them. But in older times, people worked together to create fire, understanding that #community and togetherness was an important part of their #survival. www.patreon.com/posts/149272...

As someone who was there it was clear that ICE intended to fire teargas on the labor march, directing shots over the heads of those closest to the building and firing munitions directly at the crowd. They even chose munitions that would have the widest possible effect.

DID YOU KNOW…. #Rewilding doesn't mean going back to living as #huntergatherers. Well, maybe for some! But not for most of us. That way of life is and was dependent upon a plethora of #megafauna that are now all but extinct in most regions of the world. www.rewildportland.com/rewilding-101

For people wondering why local police aren't stopping ICE/CBP, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that is not role of the police. The role of the police, *has always been* to reinforce hierarchies, be they racial hierarchies, class hierarchies, or both. Their role *has never been* to protect/serve anyone but those at the top of those hierarchies.

It’s a really weird thing to have lived for over 25 years in an #existentialcrisis that just keeps fucking going. When you kind of have this understanding of systems #collapse and #diminishing-returns it’s simple math to understand society will collapse hard at some point.

Did you know "agriculture" probably doesn't mean what you think it means?... The word #agriculture is two parts: agri + #culture. The word "agri" means #field and "culture" means to cultivate. Agriculture is literally "field #cultivation."

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter — whose characterization of a historian there as a “outspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe — think *other* people are being “blatantly defamatory.” Not them, though. They’re doing politics the right way.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

A few thousand people gathered for Donald Trump's fascist military parade. Many millions assembled to oppose it. Trump's core of support is comprised chiefly of stay-at-home racists and mercenaries who hurt people for pay. Those who act according to their consciences overwhelmingly oppose him.
