Enjoyed being part of this last night, as always. I find it interesting to think that most of the world's perception of homesteaders and off-grid folk stems from the media portrayal/Little House on the Prairie show mentality. Perhaps they'll never "get" it because I'm guessing most folks who would be willing to go on-air and be dictated to and controlled aren't really homesteaders. Don't we all homestead because we DON'T want to be controlled?

It would be interesting if the author of that article could actually visit a functioning homestead, like Doug&Stacey's, An American Homestead, Becky's Homestead, Rain Country. Instead of using his mere netflix-research, he might get a much-needed education and change his tone!
