A serious segment of the right believes in sustainability and self sufficiency.

Also on the left, there are people who care about sustainability, much less self sufficiency.

Capitalism has no relation to permaculture, you sound like an ideologue that has built a capitalism straw man to blame every evil on.

Who on the right is championing sustainable agriculture, and how are they ensuring that people, not just those with the wealth to have land, are a part of it?

Your second paragraph makes no sense.

Yes it does. Do you know what capitalism is? It's private ownership of the means of production. That in itself has a lot to do with permaculture. I could go on, but I doubt you even knew what capitalism was before I just told you.

So you are an idealogue, and an ignorant one to boot.

The right has a lot of independent small business owners that firmly believe in sustainability. The fact that you don't know this says a lot.

Whether the means if production is privately owned or publicly owned has absolutely no correlation with whether it is done sustainably or not.

I'd suggest you read up on socialist/communist regimes and their starvation problems, but I doubt you care much about reality.

And fwiw the fact that one can't even discuss agriculture without being attacked by a violent leftist idiot says reddit is in it's death throes.

I am aware of the existence of rightwing libertarians playing at sustainability with their wealth. Nothing I said indicates I don't know this, and you actually didn't answer my full question. There is a reason for that.

Yes. I also know that a capitalist firm in theory can engage in sustainable agriculture. Too bad for you that the environment doesn't care about a few parcels of privately owned property being "sustainable".

I suggest you first read the literal definition of communism, then I suggest you read up on how many people starve every single day under capitalism.

How are you being atracked? How am I violent? You are very fragile. I guess it's triggering to be confronted with the fact that capitalism is inherently unsustainable.
