          Maybe a take on Google/Alphabet? He might think it gets (purposely) drowned in the results so he won’t be able to find it if he doesn’t save it? No idea though…

            “Alphabet” memeing is generally talk about FBI/ATF/etc. Pretty common in prepper communities.

            Im thinking hes saying that if you “liberate yourself” by growing vegetables, good luck, as it’s a first step to “big goverment” coming for you. Most of them fantasize about that bit, so they can be the “hero” in their otherwise mundane lives.

            Bit of a non sequitur honestly, but I cant see any other meaning that even vaguely works. He wants to fight the “alphabet soup,” so hes now bookmarking this shit.
