Our fruit picking has shown me that there is no problem of getting food in this world.
The problem lies in knowledge of how to grow, where to find/forage, how to store food, and even, how to eat the food. Our society does not value enough the food available and there is an agenda to stop people from learning that they have their own power over their survival.

The things about industrial culture which need to be unraveled in order to become naturally human
I recommend watching these three films:
Surviving Progress
Idiocracy
God Bless America
These films bring up important issues growing in our society today which have the power of breaking us down as a species, or teaching us lessons of how to create a better world.
Some themes that need to be addressed and unraveled/recreated in our society:
natural, agrarian communities provides ample opportunity for social interaction to become a necessity and extension of daily life
whereas
industrial society can isolate and all of a sudden social skills are not used
social interaction becomes a commodity for assisting industrial progress. No wonder people become isolated and seek out interaction to fulfill their own needs. industrial society aggravates selfish aims for connecting as you can't live on your own in a natural way.
I am often drawn to strong personalities but it becomes too external and when I started talking to him it became apparent that I wasn't attracted to him. How his certain personality was shaped by his struggles, and I saw how wrapped up he was. Not that I don't have issues, but his
flavor
of his specific issues or internal life didn't appeal to me.
people get wrapped up in their own family
his internal life was wrapped up in family and glamour expectations from friends
I think it would be preferable for people who have money to have things happen in their lives so that naturally their illusions can be broken down, but when things go well for them, it's like a castle surrouding them and they should go out of their way to put themselves in uncomfortable situations to develop compassion.
the idea that you can do good for the world is a side effect of living a priveleged life.
I feel like I am a realistic person
I think I'm trying to see it in myself where I also feel like I can help the world
I appreciate having people who can see
