There were environmental arguments presented against stacking rocks, and there is nothing lost to an individual by not stacking rocks. There is no hunger or suffering involved by abstaining from that, but the counterpoint was, apparently, "DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO."

      I had an amazing one on one struggle session with someone on Hexbear over gas powered leafblowers. They emit a staggering amount of pollution compared to even a conventional car per drop of gas, are noisy and messy and don't really solve the problem the way a rake does, just move it around, but I was the bad guy because they claimed that their particular garden arrangement required a gas powered leafblower for some reason. :grillman:

      I think the funniest part about it was that people had a break down over being told to NOT inconvenience themselves while also preserving a fragile ecosystem and the commons. A triple win scenario and they are crying because the like to stacka da rock
