If I enjoy watermelons and I grow my own, am I insulting people of color by growing watermelons? If I am, that who is allowed to grow watermelons? Can I purchase from them?

BU will probably bestow an honorary doctorate to her.

AOC implies on a video that Cauliflower is racist. She says it’s Colonial.

Remember we Caucasians colonized America, that was a bad thing. Wants urban gardens to have- she named some people of color vegetable.
I knew there was a reason I don't like cauliflower.

we've known about crop rotation for at least 8000 years. mono-cropping is usually done for economic/business reasons and supported by use of fertilizer.

What I want to know is: Is crop rotation in urban gardens really a thing? :evil2:

I think it depends on whether they're growing something to eat or something to smoke.

This reminds me - a couple months back, I went on a riverboat cruise in the Netherlands and Belgium. One of the cities we stopped in was Arnhem - site of the famous "Bridge Too Far" battle in WWII, where the IX and X SS Panzer Divisions stopped an attempt by the Allies to outflank and cut off the German forces, and end the war by Christmas . I had to explain to more than a few people on the cruise that the "Operation Market Garden" (the name of the Allied operation) excursion tour was going to have neither a Market, nor a Garden...

AOC says Americans' right to a home trumps workers' 'privilege' to earn profit. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thinks having a home should be a human right.

During a recent town hall in the Bronx, New York, the freshman lawmaker suggested the right to own a home should take precedence over someone’s ability to make a profit.
Profit is a "privilege"? Profit is earned! Owning a Home is not a Right, at least in the US Constitution. I agree with reducing the number of homeless. But property ownership is not a Right.

AOC being shown as a real leader not just as an air head in the photo. Pressure builds to impeach Trump because he would accept political dirt.

Where is that Green New Deal girl we loved. I hope Washington has not changed you.

I knew there was a reason I don't like cauliflower.
I just did some research and concluded that some of the most "learned" of the Liberals have their brain matter derived from granite just like AOC.

In the video, the Liberal Sherpa mentions several crops as replacements for cauliflower. One of them is plantains.

From this link
https://homeguides.sfgate.com/grow-plan ... 56759.html

comes the information that in order to produce, plantains must have 10-15 months of freeze free conditions. While that might work in parts of Commiefornia or Florida, it isn't going to work for us cauliflower growers in Texas.

They both mention yuca, which is now a trendy food in some areas (not to be confused with yucca). It grows in tropical and sub-tropical areas. I'm sure that you would get a bumper crop of yuca in Northern Minnesota..... :biggrinjester:

But then there is cultural appropriation. Yuca is apparently a staple in Puerto Rico. So if I as an old white male start growing it and eating and, heaven forbid selling it to someone else, do I run the risk of a SJW boycott like the two white women got when they opened a restaurant in Oregon with recipes from Mexico that they researched?

I agree with Carlson. There are so many SJW rules, it is hard to keep them all straight.
