I consider myself a pacifist so I will not declare war to you. However, I feel the need to warn you.
I know you want to make us feel powerless, and I must admit, you are quite good at it. But here is some news for you: we are not. We are armed with powerful guerilla weapons like the one above. And if I were you, I wouldn't underestimate them, because they are accessible to virtually anyone in the world. Despite all your dire efforts.
You want to make us believe you rule the world. I laugh at that. Nature rules the world, and it has done since before we as a species existed and it will continue to do so long after we are gone. And nature speaks to us in many ways, weeds being its most clear language.
These ads of yours... You say you offer solutions. That's quite an unique definition you have of solutions. And people as the ruler of nature? That is so last century, come on. Don't you read newspapers? Haven't you heard about people wanting to reconnect to nature? About real foods and natural medicine making being the hot new trend? About empowerment and self sufficiency? About dandelions being the new roses? What ivory tower is it that you live in? I almost feel bad for you, you are obviously very disconnected. When did you stop feeling part of nature?
You do an excellent job however scaring people with brains. The more you are in the news (and let's face it: how many times has that been in a positive way?) the more people are looking into foraging and wildcrafting as a way to get rid of their weeds. And after a while, the inevitable happens: they grow so fond of their weeds that they invite them into their garden. They swap seeds. They help spreading them. Good tactics, I like that part of the story.
I need to tell you: there is a rapid growing movement of wild nature lovers. Don't underestimate us. We will continue to swap wild and heirloom seeds. We will not stop to tell people about the powers of weeds. We will always use them as food and medicine. We will never give up enhancing their growing conditions. We will not cease to do wild guerilla gardening. We will never, ever give up.
And neither will Nature.
Wildly,
Leaf
