@da5nsyDanny Garside These are great questions and I agree, should be talked about. Often! Much if not most of my blog is addressing this and reflects that I've lived most of my life in an attempt to exist outside of #capitalism. It's far from being a disconnected or impermeable bubble, but rather, a lived awareness that there are steps to be taken to not cooperate with my own subjugation. I prioritize my #freedom by rejecting #consumerism. I'm still stuck in it, but not to the degree that most are.

I'd been living this way before I heard him say this but it sums it up well. It's a daily, lived ethics that has no end. An active practice of ethical freedom. #Resistance that has to be reaffirmed, a lived revolution that starts with me but requires sharing and cooperation with others to be complete.
