or "I TOTALLY SUPPORT THE ANARCHISTS DOING TERROR ATTACKS ON THE MARXIST-LENINISTS SAVING US FROM FASCISM!"
What a lack of Marxism-Leninism and historical materialism does to a mf. Literal kindergarten level leftism. These are the same people who will argue that it's the Bolsheviks ackchually who made it possible for fascists to win the Spanish civil war by repressing anarchists (no sources provided)
Weird way to out yourself as someone who hates people wearing glasses, diabetics - or anyone else needing regular doses of medicine - handicapped people, clean running water, food safety, green energy as a viable option as the main power supply, any form of reliable international/national network of infrastructure that allows travel, and I don't know what else.
Also we're burdened by nuclear power plants. Any plan for the future must involve some way of making sure none of those turn into a Chernobyl. Not to mention all the other big scary factories you can't just shut off.
All of this is already secondary to the fact that on a planet of 8 billion+ people, the majority of us would die in a global famine. I won't really care about green energy or travel when I'm literally dying of starvation.
I somehow doubt that this user would consider it an issue though, It's moreso a feature. People with politics like this usually see "overpopulation" as a problem.
In this users imagination we live in some sort of utopia. With the incoming climate apocalypse a lot of this stuff will go away and we have to figure out what to do, but it's not because we deliberately decide to deindustrialise.
"Green energy" is also things like wind/watermills and so on. Things people use to go off the grid on their own. In the apocalyptic future those are the kinds of things you will care about, because they will let you power your community. They will also be difficult to obtain because making solar cells without mass industry is going to be tough as hell.
Twitter anarchists are just Malthusians with extra steps.
I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm just pointing out that alongside the things you listed as consequences of deindustrialisation, billions of people would also die from famine (which makes the other things look minor in comparison).
I didn't take it as disagreement! I thought you were comparing the issues that would come with "no mass industry" with another equal Armageddon.
I get what you mean, caring about asphalted roads while we're all starving to death is a bit "rearranging the deck chairs on the titanic". Then again the Khmer rouge kinda did that, I think, and they had some odd priorities too.
Reminds me of the WKUK sketch lol
LETS GO TO THE MOVIES
how often do the radioactive rods need to be watered?
