  1. They are still materially comfortable

  2. Indoctrination from the cradle

  3. Beyond basic reform policies leftist ideals don’t have much to offer most americans

Your discourse is needlessly aggressive.

Your examples about centralizing production or eliminating useless capitalists middlemen would be great for efficiency, but it does not put water back into aquifers or fish into the sea. The degrowth movement is primarily concerned that our economic systems are in the pursuit of unlimited growth on a planet with a fixed biocapacity. It is nonsensical and will ultimately harm all of us by reducing the planet’s ability to recover (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPb_0JZ6-Rc a discussion about the world’s current biocapacity). What you’re claiming is austerity they would paint as sustainable well-being for all not just temporary affluence for a few.

While both degrowth proponents and eco-facists admittedly start with similar propositions about the environment, their conclusions and solutions are not the same. Degrowth movements do not advocate for the punishing of or limitations on the global south (as opposed to “the third world”) but instead propose self-determination and assistance in development. Also, degrowth movements deeply encourage socialist ideals.

Your closing remark is cruel, why are you being cruel on a forum that is meant to be a welcoming place to your fellow leftists (jk you’re all liberals but me)? What does this accomplish?
