You’re right, subsistence living in an individual level is impossible. There’s a lot of Americans though, and they could do subsistence living if they worked together. Again, you and I aren’t disagreeing. We just need to make sure to use the right words. Even if subsistence living isn’t a commonly held thought, it’s one with a more positive connotation than Isolationism. We should use words with negative connotations to describe negative bills
Yes, you’re right. I’m being pedantic. I should have forewarned that, my bad.
And you’re also right that people tend to tune out negative words. At first, sure. But, assuming you’re American, I bet I could cause some cognitive dissonance in you if you I use the right ones. Isolationism isn’t one of those yet, but in 30 years we need that word to sound the same as “Feudalism”
I can’t say for sure how much indoctrination has happened, but I remember hearing “isolationism” as a sort of bogeyman in history classes. So there’s at least that for some people
You don’t have to trust the education system. Pay attention to the words that media outlets use to scare people. Use those words against the enemies, because that’s what scares them
