    I don’t feel hopeless. I never said that. Your tone was a bit anxious is all. You are assuming that I’m in despair which is not the truth at all and not fitting with Solarpunk so that’s a little confusing. You are fine but to be frank I think you’re over thinking this video and it doesn’t require this much extra thought and discussion. I also don’t believe just voting is the answer and that’s another topic, I’m personally an Anarchist, and that’s not the point of Solarpunk so I think we may philosophically differ quite a bit. Seed bombing falls under direct action. Voting certainly doesn’t. You keep mentioning land management. Seed bombing is related to the punk aspect of Solarpunk and while it can bring in a diverse array of ideas the people in this video don’t seem as concerned about a land management group as you might want them to be. I also feel NGOs are less direct and often lead to inaction by utilizing the very structures this movement rebels against but that’s just a personal opinion and this is not the thread to unpack it. Another topic. The people in this video, I assume you watched it if you responded, are doing a DIY project. a bit different than volunteering for an organization and equally valid. This is one video and seed bombing is one that can be done. There are many different ways to create change and dual power structures are crucial

    At any rate everything is fine and we may need to agree to disagree on some points and move on as I feel is best at this point. You brought up several issues that feel a bit off topic on my end. Try not to assume or project and voting discourse / preaching could easily lead to conflict at other times. Thanks again for your passionate response to the video and sorry if it upset you.
