People incorrectly claim the degrowther movement has no political influence. In reality, though, degrowthers are everywhere. Most people in fact now are degrowth. We’ve collectively given up any vision of progress, of improvement, of collective organization to achieve societal benefits. It’s not the left or the right alone. Both sides are about making life worse in their own dipshitty ways.

If your energy use over time doesn’t look like China’s, you’re fucking up (and the US’s is about as depressing as the EU’s.):

Degrowthers are making everything worse. We should be building so much and burning up so much energy that the sun’s like, “Damn.” But no chance of that anytime soon as clowns are in charge of the circus.
