With fascism if you are unable to be exploited for surplus profits (eg. The elderly) you are welcome to die and the govt will facilitate it in ways that include social murder:

Shocking statistics from the EPA. Shrink the lawn and plant native!


a. We have 50 million acres of lawn in the U.S. which is as much land as all the national parks combined

b. Our lawn-obsessed mow and blow culture uses:

Three trillion gallons of water,

800 million gallons of gas

59 million pounds of pesticides per year according to the E.P.A.

(the pesticides we use to keep our lawns pristine aren’t just bad for the us, they’re deadly for pollinators and other wildlife.)
