    I know a couple "anprims" (they'd call themselves anti-civ but everyone else calls them anprims) who genuinely went and fucked off into the woods. I think one's working on supplying her own HRT through mare piss.

      OK so they just want descentralized, small-scale, workers-owned, near-end-user, low carbonfootprint/whatever production, which sounds good at some extent.

      Where I live, fucking milk is transported by trucks from the farm to the factories HUNDREDS of km away. Only for it to be pasteurized, put in bags and go back by truck to the same fucking little town next to the original farm. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH

        Anti-civ generally prefer that, whilst True Anprims generally want to be actual hunter-gatherers to make the distinction.

          They don't even like agriculture? Like in little orchards maybe?

            Not generally, no. Usually they consider it to be the "original sin" of technologies so to speak, the start of sedentary lifestyle and thus (in their eyes) the beginning of the accumulation of capital. There's debate on whether either of those things are true, but the prior likely isn't due to (as I cited elsewhere) sedentary hunter-gatherer lifestyles in wetlands. The latter has some more truth to it, but there's still plenty debate to be had.

            Anti-civs vary more on agriculture, with most advocating a form of permaculture.

              Ok so "anti-civs" are totally respectable average "hippies" and anprims just truly want to monke.
