Actually yes current organic methods do it...
And yes they are very labor intensive (which makes the "you could have less people" pointless), so yes feeding the world without destroying it would require a quite drastic reorganisation of society.
But it's in no way impossible, at least from a technical standpoint.

Comment Re:Men are obsolete (Score 1) 387

In the days before feminism, I'm not sure men ever suggested that women be exterminated as a gender.

Apparently, they did nearly that in some regions of Germany during the Malleus Malefircarum witchhunt: young men there had to travel outside these regions to find women to marry, as most of the ones in their own neighbourhood had be burned.

Comment Re:Blade Runner's script had little to do with Rid (Score 1) 144

Man in The High Castle should be a low-budget movie, there is nearly no action and most of the story is about the universe (how much could Nazis and Imperial Japan uniforms cost? Even adding a Colt replica and a Mickey Mouse watch shouldn't put the thing over budget) and questions about what is genuine...
Let's hope that Ridley'll understand that!
About Forever War, have you read Marciano's comic adaptation? It's quite good.

There are many rural societies used to hardships where honor values are extremely important and held even by the poorest amongst them.

But when everything is a lie like in eastern europe "socialism" (in Goodbye Lenin an interesting scene is when the hero's mother, a law-abiding gentle at heart communist, uses PartyTongue to assert her points when writing to the bureaucracy: she makes it clear that she's seeing through the veil of lies, but has to cover her actions with the same veils for them to be accepted and effective) the moral virtues are usually considered a lie too....

3.18.18 damage to Government property

Really?
Either you have a car crash into some federal property or you go into a riot (even without human deaths or injury) which destroys government property and you're a terrorist?
Some group of militants enters a government agency and tears some documents and they become terrorists, which means anybody helping them is now a terrorist?
