You may have heard of the concept of a 15-minute city and are wondering what one is. Here is a farmer to explain with chickens.

Before we start, the idea of a "15-minute city" tends to be fodder for conspiracy theorists. As if there is a grand cabal of global elites looking to control people by limiting them to a fifteen-minute radius. Get those dark thoughts out of your head. As WikiPedia tells us, a 15-minute city is nothing more than an "urban planning concept in which most daily necessities and services, such as work, shopping, education, healthcare, and leisure can be easily reached by a 15-minute walk or bike ride from any point in the city" to "reduce car dependency, promote healthy and sustainable living, and improve the overall quality of life for city dwellers."

Got it? Now here is the farmer with his chickens.

As you can see, the chickens are so happy they can hardly sit still. They own nothing and the like it. They LOVE it! And some may even already be eating the bugs.

Could they leave their 15-minute "city?" Sure. Do they want to? No. Do they know enough to know there are other things out there? That's unclear.

And while the chickens are happy, no one is happier than the farmer. He walks in to collect their means of production for himself. The chickens get the exact amount they need. The farmer gets everything else. You know, since he's part of an elite group of leaders that is in charge.

It's a total paradise. We the People should be so lucky to live like this.
