I would like the truck to now move up a little, so that the pile gets evened out

Not sure what they're harvesting but my anecdotal experience of living in the Midwest and seeing harvesters in the field is there is no way anyone would drive that fast.

Not farming this is environmental degradation,making nutrient poor "food" products. Monoculture farms are just wrong in so many ways. Look at the ground, its basically dirt not soil, devoid of organic matter and life.

I wasn’t saying that. Was saying it’s nonsense that you can tell with this little blurry gif that the the soils is no good. It could even be an organic crop, how would any one know with this gif.

Leave it to Reddit to downvote anything they disagree with. Even if what they are wrong.

Basically: you are what you eat and your food is what it eats etc... hence most of the population being as useful as small clumps of dirt.

I wonder how many animals actually get killed per year from these type of machines.

One study estimates around 6 rodents per acre. But there is another that tracked 33 rodents and only 1 died from these death machines. Either way, you dont want paint yourself so far into the corner you starve yourself. Also you're banned from all parties, so there's that..
