    I’m very anti-work, but one night in that environment with no shelter and food and I’d be dreaming of an office space. That being said, there is definitely a better world somewhere between working 50-80hours a week and sleeping outside with no shelter or food.

      I don’t think the post is implying a desire to live in nature, but rather expressing the inability to ever visit because of work

      You’re comparing what even our ancestors before sapiens had against the modern world. How about Babylon? Or the native Americans that so many “civilized” Americans ran off into the woods to join. Survival of the fittest was absolutely a thing sure, but at the same time, look at people’s lives now, look at healthy people’s lives in Brazil’s favella, Gaza, Sudan, war zone or not. I live in the wonderful capital of Scotland yet there are people on the edges who have lives worse than a 3000bc person.
