Nice list. Already doing some of it. Could do more.

With all the rampant corruption.... I’m just done.
My new hobby is going to be depriving the state out of as much tax revenue as possible.

👍
I couldn't agree more and I've been encouraging a consumer strike against corrupt corporate vendors for years.
I'm not setting a perfect example, but I am looking for a farm co-op to use and buying eggs from a neighbor.
When I can I'm doing 1,2,3,6,8,9,11,13,15,16,18,19,20,21,23,31,34,35,36,44,53,54,55.
I'd add to the list:
Switch to Linux OS on your computer, starting with a dual boot (which Linux can do automatically) with your
existing OS so you can start in the shallow end of the pool until you can swim well with Linux.

I'm covered except for chickens and solar power.
Chickens are within the barter consortium and heat/cooking is wood as backup.
Been at the infrastructure for 2 1/2 years. Full machine shop with fuel to power generator too.

Cash is King. Like it never happened. .

Very Nice list. Semi-Galt.

However, way too many people would forego privacy and freedom for convenience, and completely lack the competency, skills or initiative to do 1/3 of these.

Great List. Doing a lot of it.
I don't do 9, 12 because I don't do vegetables.
But I should find local cattle farmers...

Another one. Reduce your water consumption.
Try for 1 week to live "without" full showers, etc.
A bucket shower (2 buckets) a bar of soap, and a washcloth go a long way...

Get wet, lather up, then rinse off. Just doing this changed how we view showers, etc. But I know what it takes to survive without a working shower. I can easily sustain this.

We still shower normally, but much shorter.
We also HOME FILTER water to not buy bottled water!

And, get this. Our MONTHLY water consumption for 2 people is TINY. It's below that of a single person.

Water is a precious resource, slowly become scarce...

We have hundreds of extra garbage bags, to be used inside of buckets for WASTE if we lose water/sewer. Starting to think twice about how nice SEPTIC would be... LOL

Great list. Already doing many things here.

We stopped sending gifts for Christmas, buy CRAP to decorate, and even having special meals.

I continue to FAST every Thanksgiving, for as many days as I can... Because I am grateful that FASTING is a CHOICE and a MUSCLE you must exercise...

I had to stop reading after #1 "Grow your own food."
Not going to happen... not for me, or even anyone that I know -- including folks with a backyard garden -- I ask "what percentage of your food is grown in your garden?" And they have no idea. The garden patch is on par with virtue signalling.
Ok.. I will go back and read the list ... 55 items ... there must be a few of them that I am already implementing...
#13 Ditch TV, #26 Play outside, #49 Give the gift of experiences instead of Stuff.
#51 Use Alt Social Media -- Welcome to The Gulch.

Here are 55 ways to starve the Beast.
Starve the Beast by taking as many of these steps as possible…
1. Grow your own food.
2. Shop at local businesses with no corporate ties.
3. Use natural remedies instead of pharmaceuticals whenever possible.
4. Homeschool your children. If you can’t homeschool, at the very least, spend time undoing the indoctrination by giving them the tools to think critically.
5. Walk or bike instead of driving when you can.
6. When possible, get care from naturopaths and healers instead of doctors.
7. Make paper logs from scraps for free heat if you have a wood-burning fireplace or stove.
8. Boycott all processed foods.
9. Shop at local farmer’s markets or buy directly from the farms themselves.
10. Don’t buy from corporate stores: Wal-Mart, Costco, Best Buy, Home Depot. Instead, pay a few extra dollars and buy from local vendors.
11. Give vouchers as gifts for an evening of babysitting, a homemade meal, walking the dog, doing a repair, or cleaning
12. Join a CSA or farm co-op
13. Ditch television (and all the propaganda and commercials). If you want to view programs, enroll in a streaming service without commercials like Netflix.
14. Participate in the barter system – although remember that even if no money changes hands, the government would like for you to let them know so you can be duly taxed.
15. Buy secondhand from yard sales, Craigslist, and thrift stores
16. Sell your own unwanted goods by having a yard sale or putting an ad on Craigslist
17. Repair things instead of replacing them
18. Avoid fast-food restaurants and chain restaurants
19. Dine at locally owned establishments if you eat out.
20. Brew your own beer and wine.
21. Cook from scratch to avoid all those Big Food chemicals and additives.
22. Grow or gather medicinal herbs.
23. Give homemade gifts.
24. Attend free local activities: lectures, concerts, play days at the park, library events.
25. Dumpster dive and pick up things from the curb.
26. Play outside: hike, bike, picnic.
27. Mend clothing.
28. Invite someone over for dinner instead of meeting at a chain restaurant.
29. Throw creative birthday parties at home for your kids instead of renting a venue.
30. Travel to other countries and note how most are not filled with mega-corporations, and local businesses still thrive.
31. Bring your coffee with you in a travel mug.
32. Do all of your Christmas shopping with small local businesses and artisans.

34. Drop the thermostat and put on a sweater.
35. Bring your snacks and drinks in a cooler when you go on a road trip.
36. Stay home – it’s way easier to avoid temptations that way. Shopping should not be a form of entertainment.
37. Pack lunches for work and school.
38. Make delicious homemade treats as a hostess gift.
