Why do you think it bothers you? Genuinely curious.<p>I understand that hypocrisy is frustrating, but perhaps this situation is more illustrative of the fact that &quot;The System&quot; has so pervasively invaded free spaces (physical spaces as well as psychogeographic ones), than it is that these (or others) are just young punks who won&#x27;t know any better until their older and wiser (like us -- by implication?). What criteria do their motivations not satisfy, and in what way do their actions or desires&#x2F;beliefs&#x2F;ideas impact you to the extent that it would provoke any reaction at all? Is it dishonest to say you&#x27;re disconnecting and still wear shoes? That doesn&#x27;t seem right to me.<p>I&#x27;m forever interested in why righteous motivations seem to automatically provoke feelings of judgement or disdain from some people, who usually make comparative observations about the relative purity of a project or intentions, against their own values and wisdom.<p>There are certain people for whom the simple act of someone&#x27;s wanting to do something substantially different (and who knows, maybe better?) seems to be an existential threat. I&#x27;m not saying that your reaction here is that serious, but I&#x27;ve seen it in many others.<p>It just seems like there is a knee-jerk reaction from many quarters that finds any discussion about alternatives to simply accepting and living within the defined parameters of &quot;The System&quot;, and I wonder where that often-vehement opposition comes from.<p>*typo edit
