From a Foreign Policy magazine article about this:

“The farrago of magical thinking, technocratic hubris, ideological delusion, self-dealing, and sheer shortsightedness that produced the crisis in Sri Lanka implicates both the country’s political leadership and advocates of so-called sustainable agriculture: the former for seizing on the organic agriculture pledge as a shortsighted measure to slash fertilizer subsidies and imports and the latter for suggesting that such a transformation of the nation’s agricultural sector could ever possibly succeed.”

I can just imagine the guy writing this seething and also jerking it to his own use of the word farrago.

The posts are well explained with links included, this one makes me google “sri lanka organic agriculture” and that’s a change of rules

Ahh yeah I remember some have links. I’m just used to the “you’ll eat bugs and you will like it” slop.

I’m certain BMF has spent a quite few years in academia filling their brain with obscure theory. Half the posts are about bugs, half of them are word salads with weird jargon characteristics and direct links to academic papers.

@black_mold_futures a user known for their :jesse-wtf: unintelligible posts, that keeps getting banned for petty sectarianism and coming back on different accounts. This is suspected to be their latest account.
