“I was at Walmart today…”
Lol, of course you were, because you participate in consumer culture just like everybody else. But keep talking about living a “minimal lifestyle” while you talk about your knife collection and bow collection and trucks and the things you “need” instead of want. Why do you need a motorcycle? You don’t – you want one, so the consumer in you will go out and buy one. Nothing wrong with that – just please stop pretending you’re any different or more righteous than the rest of us. Peace!
You’re starting to be a troll now. I addressed all your complaints already. https://www.chuckjines.com/consumerism-and-minimalism-whats-the-difference/ I hope you find some happiness. A few facts for you, not that it would matter to you. 0.03% of Americans live without running water in their homes… Less than 1% live off the power grid… less than 1% of Americans live without refrigeration. Lol. To say my lifestyle is just like everyone else’s is silly and childish. Any more troll comments and you will be blocked. You should spend more time being productive rather than trolling my website!
