I’m not gonna lie. The first time I not only read but REPOSTED this, I must have skimmed over the entire middle section. My brain went: “Fetishized aesthetic of country life, divorced from labor…” YES THAT IS SO TRUE *skips* “…and the exploitative nature of commercial farming in 2024. All seen through a deeply colonial lens of course.” YES. EXACTLY. Missed THE ENTIRE GAG. The ENTIRE GAG.
