I was lurking on Reddit and I saw someone claiming that nowadays governments will do everything to make you out of poverty but moment you went above poverty line, taxes and all of that will make you way worse than what you were initially. I wonder if that is true.
This is what I was going say: Being low-consumption is a form of resistance. Joining a solidarity network or other mutual aid is resistance. Going vegan, going zero waste, growing your own food are all resistance. And those things will all save you money; but the power comes from rejecting a system that’s not working, not absence of resources.
