“I think the biggest reason otherwise radical people don't want to face the necessity of ending industrial civilization is privilege. We're the ones reaping the benefits. We've sold out the rest of life on earth for convenience, creature comforts, and cheap consumer goods, and it's appalling. I'm sickened by this bargain.” PeopleThinkingWantReasonEarthFacesComfortCivilizationCreaturesBenefitsPrivilegeRadicalConsumersGoodsConvenienceBargainsSold OutRest Of LifeCreature Comforts Author:Lierre Keith
“These political passions are born of a hunger so deep that it touches on the spiritual. Or they were for me, and they still are. I want my life to be a battle cry, a war zone, an arrow pointed and loosed into the heart of domination: patriarchy, imperialism, industrialization, every system of power and sadism. If the martial imagery alienates you, I can rephrase it. I want my lifemy bodyto be the place where the earth is cherished not devoured, where the sadist is granted no quarter, where the violence stops.” IfsWantHeartStillsI CanWarEarthSpiritualPoliticalPassionBornViolenceCryBattleHungerGrantedZoneQuartersPatriarchyImperialismDominationImageryArrowsSadismIndustrializationWar ZonesBattle Cry Book:The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability Source: The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability
