I don't know, anti-war ****? Either way saying that it's okay to both wear a poppy and not wear a poppy is really just saying that it's okay to wear poppy so the other bit is just throwaway.

It's okay to kneel.
It's also okay not to kneel.

I kinda get it now
Yes, I know. And I'm saying that Fluff's post sounds like a possible dog whistle that people who don't wear a poppy shouldn't criticize people who do.

life would be better without most modern technology provided you didn't die early

either way "the end of history" narrative is probably false and we don't necessarily live in a better world than our ancestors
Having lived pre-internet, imo music is much better post internet.

Life overall I believe was better pre-agriculture

Have you read the Unabomber Manifesto?

Also I think dying younger was better - see what you think about that 30 years from now
