    Legends of real tree men

    Rich, no, I am not telling you any of those things. If you want to call those people heroes, well that is where we diverge. If following instinct makes someone heroic, I missed that. I prefer to see the brutal labor undertaken by immigrants in the usa since it's birth in a more honest light...

    Legends of real tree men

    Claiming shit like what? I am only pointing out facts and adding some opinion. I am also descended from european immigrants! Some German and Irish too as a matter of fact. I'm not saying people were wrong for providing for their families, it's human instinct. I'm saying that making out people...

    Legends of real tree men

    The truth is that american immigrants always have been imported as biomass for the machine to use up. Many of them were tricked into coming here in the first place by agents of american industrialists spreading lies in impoverished euro villages about how great life was in usa. People say...

    Why are people from the past who worked way harder than necessary to make a tiny bit of profit for themselves while making an enormous profit for a few while destroying the environment and enabling population growth so often glorified? The video is a great document to history but mostly the...

    Thinning

    okay I think I get that. When I reduce a stem I usually reduce the ends of all or most of the lateral limbs, but rarely remove them entirely. Are y'all saying to remove some laterals entirely?
