degrowth feels almost like the guilty consciouness of americans and europeans who have truly had it too good too long and you know it ehe but im sorry dude you cannot be fr telling the rest of the world to cut emissions or industrial activity when it barely fucking exists here while you reap the benefits of it all. when development has been cut short and actively prevented in so many places like my home so you mfs can have it easy and not have to compete w us for our own resources. degrowth is suicide for us and mass murder for you. you want degrowth so bad? kill yourself! just kill yourself. do your part or whatever and hopefully well do our part here attempting to make this shithole country better even if it costs us carbon emissions or whatever. as if we werent held back from it at every turn and as if every time weve tried america or canada or europe hasnt swept in to take everything weve produced for themselves.

#m #this is in part kind of an emotional reaction i iwill admit but like #doesnt it seem deeply unfair to you that the us and europe can partake in cheap energy fuel food etc for like a good fat century #at our expense and the moment they see oh hey that actually might come bck to bite us they decide no one else gets to have it that good any #-anymore bc of mistakes they did and egregious extractivism and war so they can have everything they need for cheap #making it harder and harder for the countries they loot and pillage to ever get anywhere near that level of development. its incredible #it just goes on and on and on the wars and the embargos and trade bans and the pseudo green bullshit to excuse themselves
