How cool! Thanks for sharing that. I found JMG's writings via James Howard Kunstler about a decade ago. I owe both of those guys a great deal for changing my life in a positive way, though I owe JMG the most because I would not have begun studying Druidry if he had not led by example on that and other things.
As damaging as the Nothingburger Flu overreaction has been, perhaps one of the few silver linings to its noxious cloud is that a whole class of people are waking up to being on the downslope of Progress that would not have woken up if Progressians had not taken a wrecking ball to the economy. Ample bread and copious circuses are distracting. The Progressians, by destroying our fragile yoga-studio-with-gift-shop-on-every-corner model of grift commerce have popped the 10,000 mile slave-made product bubble they were so instrumental in creating and maintaining.
From what I saw on that thread yesterday, I think the PMC's wins (a fraudulent election, continued lockdown luxury communism, Amazon taking down Parler and other censorship) will be temporary and their Great Reset will vaporize along with their plans to colonize Mars. The organic seed company I buy from, Baker Creek, said "Over the last year, we have seen our sales often surpass two to three times our normal volume". The PMC need to be afraid of the People Who Garden more than they need to fear rioters at the Capitol. The People Who Garden are the ones who will have access to food when the PMC are reduced to squatting in their McMansions and burning their barely-used furniture for warmth!
