  • I mean I get it. Weird to have a private company walking monitoring device that proudly does so so they can… Upload more to social media? It just sorta marks you as a hyper user and in the past we would have doubted those types even came outside.
    Like I would pair it with the people who have only clothes and decorated with souvenir items from some random brand. It IS a weird look.

    But unfortunately Flock exists and they are everywhere, spun up in seconds with cameras just running light and are even easily hacked. So like privacy wise its less a concern but personally… Definitely not a fan and I get uncomfortable around them. I don’t want to be used for content or actively sold by you just for being near.





  • Ok, I’m not gonna ask how you force a world to stop having children and rapidly reduce the population.
    Its not an ice cream flavor and you are appeasing your ideology with something harmless to make it sound better than it is.

    I actually do consider critically what kind of people would rise to a society that pushes this on others. I disagree with it and I’m gonna stop responding cause you are just fighting out an argument to defend your honor and your perceived morality rather than think critically yourself.



  • Your post really called out all the “smart” people who have decided on a form of fascism to appeal to their idea of how to fix the world.

    They won’t change their mind cause they want less people and they want to think it fixes stuff without having to read a study about it. They liked it during covid when there were less people to interact with I think and had comfort in wealth to not have to suffer the consequences and now just aim for it.

    Good post. Love the resources.



  • a deliberate mischaracterization driven by those who have a stake in growth and consumption.

    Yeah thats what I thought.
    So excited by who “degrowth” hurts that you dont care about reality.
    And trump supporters aren’t racist or fascist they just want cheap oil.

    Good luck getting everyone to shrink without the reality of how that would be enforced. Enjoy your dreams that absolve you of reality because they make you feel better. I won’t sit at this table any longer.


  • Then you should doublecheck who you have arguing on your side and who you stand with. You can pump your chest you do not personally stand for this but the practice attracts those that are more physically minded than you.

    Degrowth sides with eugenics, racists, and psychopaths. Just cause you think it would save the world to make less lives does not leave it without those that will find horrible ways to make it reality as there is not other practical way to make it happen.
