Have you stopped beating your wife yet?

I’m fine with the revolution, but it does very little when dealing with preventing the collapse from the overshoot of the carrying capacity of the global ecosystem. Read the fine paper, your attitude is in line with what it describes.

Strange. It works for me. Can anyone else reproduce the error?

I don’t believe that we’ve very significantly overshot our global ecosystem carrying capacity. Especially post-fossil. It’s a fact outlined in many numbers in thousands of peer reviewed publications.

As to what we could collectively do: sadly, very little. The overall system has almost no degrees of freedom left. You’re mostly down to personal and community scale choices. Small things.

Not going to continue to discuss that here though.

We are not making anyone move. I and the rest of the mods but wabooti who is MIA for 8 months have already left. It’s a courtesy notice to the community. Whether wabooti will continue is up to him. I will just stay here long enough for the discussion, if any.

You can of course make your own collapse community (with blackjack and hookers) but perhaps pick an instance where the admins are not overshoot deniers. It seems though you don’t quite understand the significance of that “slap on the wrist”.

Admin Removed Post Overshoot: Cognitive obsolescence and the population conundrum [PDF] reason: promotes eugenics

which also got me a 3-day site wide ban for “promoting eugenics” which is no longer showing up since expired.

In general admins can of course remove users and communities for reasonable reasons, but editor decisions on communitity content (even those I don’t feel strong about) are strange.

My pleasure. Obviously a community discussing collapse can’t stay in a place which denies overshoot of the ecosystem carrying capacity. The Reese paper doesn’t say a thing about eugenics.

We are not going to abandon fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels are abandoning us. And those 8.1 billion and counting will be going away, too.

They do get released. I need a source of high quality rips for the NAS to stream from.
