EcoMaoism: Animal Liberationist, Environmental Mao Zedong Thought

280 readers

EcoMaoism is the synthesis of Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong Thought with radical environmentalist and animal liberation ideologies. We uphold that animals are exploited and deserve the same liberations that the workers would have under communism. We are also against sources of pollution, deforestation, and climate change. We are not western liberals, We are green tankies!

I am a climate realist. It has become apparent to me that the worst will be inevitable in the coming years and that climate change will take decades to reverse so my take is that climate policy should also prioritize adapting to this phenomenon while we still can.

We can look at hot dry regions in the past in order to learn how to deal with the heat while still conserving energy.

Rewilding and remediating nature, defaulting veganism, using architecture transit and so on to reduce the contradiction between town and country, heavy input into disaster assistance and prevention programs (it’s entirely possible to prevent wildfires and reduce hurricane damage), lots of lower tech/consumption solutions, and hemp and solar, etc. For most of this we need socialism. I recommend reading Half Earth Socialism (and the cosmonaut critique), and Socialism or Extinction, but those are far from all encompassing and there are other resources out there.

I’m silly, two books I own, A People’s Green New Deal and How to Blow Up a Pipeline are probably good.
