If by "romantic idea" you mean actual lived experience then ok.

- shiroiushi 3y agoNo, it's not actual lived experience. I came from the rural South, I know what it's like there. The people there are NOT farmers.
- forgetfreeman 3y agoI'll be sure to tell my three uncles who raise pigs, tobacco, corn, soybeans, and peanuts the next time I see them that they aren't farmers. I should probably ask my cousins how they manage to find time to sit on their asses given their employment in the timber industry, ask my father what a sedentary ironworker even looks like, and then there's the minor issue of all the time I've spent working in the trades during the week and on heavy equipment on the weekends...
- shiroiushi 3y agoSo by your logic, because a handful of people are farmers, then everyone in rural areas is a farmer? Brilliant.
