I’ve read the article and a lot of the opinions stated in this thread. You gotta let go of this one, dog. People live their lives the way they want to, and as long as it’s harmless to others it’s not anybody else’s business.

That said, way too many generalizations both implicit and explicit here, including in the article itself. It sounds like the aim of the article and comments made are just looking for someone to be angry at. But I’d wager that those people actually out experiencing, even just existing in, nature are not the ones to whom that anger should be pointed. Redirect your focus, don’t attack your fellow people.

Hell yeah

Chinese for less than $100? You should be able to get basically any hand grinder for less than that. Plus if you’re willing to do a little restoration, I see tons of them at antique stores in the US for like $20.
