    OK, I am going to try arguiung that privacy supersedes food:

    To have a right to anything means there is something that I own. Owning something puts a division between me and others who can not own this specific thing: My right is my own, I do not have to diminish it by sharing. The most fundamental form of division is absence. Having a right to privacy is a right to the absence from others. Therefore the right to privacy is a more fundamental one than the right to food.

    However, I agree that in practice eating in public beats dying in private any time of the day. 🤷
















  • I know it is reassuring to believe there is some form of higher power, be it religious or in your case some form of deep state waiting to spring into action but the simple through is: There is no one coming to save us from ourselves.

    It sounds cliché but: Be the change you want to see. You don’t have to become the next Luigi or otherwise “give yourself to the cause” but simply do what is within your means. Help where you can readily do so and even if you have to participate in the system you can do so in the least efficient way possible.
