          I didn’t realize that was still going on. How many have died so far in that genocide? I haven’t seen much news about that recently. You’d think the state department and western media would keep that in the public consciousness. Even so, that doesn’t discount the inequality inherent in capitalism that permeates the current state of the world.

              The solution is Degrowth with a sustainable economy. It’s the only viable solution to climate change.

              I’m not a simp for socialism. But I’m savvy enough to realize that capitalism requires growth and new markets, while Marxist economics provides the only framework to allow the degrowth necessary to combat climate catastrophe. Overconsumption and artificial scarcity aren’t going to serve us well in the coming decades.
