weirdly, stalinists hate her, probably because they also misinterpreted some thing she said a long time ago and went crazy over it like you're doing now

This is actually a really good point, I shouldn't be so concerned with stuff she's said in the long ago time of 5:30 this morning.

The left needs more stable people who alternate between calling other people on the left Stalinists and Cryto-Fascists because they like cars and beef. This to me, is how the left will build a populist movement.

Lmao remember when I walked into this thread and called her incoherent? Thanks for noticing how I'm calling her incoherent.

If you really want to dig into it, her politics, as far as I've gleaned from the show, are 'left of European social democrat' but with some straight up bizarre takes that I could characterize as things as wide ranging as cryptofascistic and Stalinist.

She specifically said Biden is worse than Trump. I'm sorry you have severe online poisoning but you should consider logging off to fix it.

Will's bafflement at the degrowth comments was pretty funny but that guy definitely should have got some more pushback on his global warming centrism. Sure dude, western consumers don't need to make any changes to their extremely consumptive lifestyles, just turn down the fossil fuel burner a few notches and it'll sort itself out.

My take on the champagne socialism vs degrowth debate is that it's impossible to know exactly what quality of life we should expect after massively decarbonizing our economy and ensuring an equitable worldwide distribution of wealth and demanding one end of the spectrum or the other at this point is pretty silly

Talk shit, get bzzzt.

Every family gets one house no more no less, free transit in cities where private car ownership is banned, and meat is either not produced due to the massive energy/land/labor costs or made in big ol' synthmeat factories. Degrowth in my mind means putting a cap on opulence, modernizing production to increase efficiency, and ensuring all economic growth is also sustainable and used to uplift every human.

Plus all 3rd world babies are thrown into incinerators, per Amber's contention.
