To anyone who doesn’t think electricity is a privilege,

Ask yourself why you have access to electricity and a large percentage of this planet’s people have never used it. The answer is because you are privileged and others are oppressed.

It is physically impossible for everyone in the world to have the same access to electricity that most Americans now have. The biosphere will collapse before we ever approach that goal.

People trying to live off the land are being wiped out so that we can have these “privileges” that we “enjoy.” Meanwhile we are losing the knowledge of how to live off the land as we destroy the land.
