Yeah, Same here honestly. I wish

Well resource consumption wouldn't go down THAT much. Outside of private jets and the like, most shit is still consumed by people.

Making it all illegal works, killing the people who make it possible for us does not because new ones will spring up.

Where in the fuck do you get ecofascism from!? Do you even know what the word means.

"Ecofascism is a political ideology that blends environmental protection with extreme racism, white supremacy, and violence against marginalized groups. "

It's not like they are welcome in many other places

Resorting to calling people ecofascists feels pretty reductive. As the world currently exists, and under current economic systems, population growth is a pretty huge issue, especially while basically zero effort is being put into reducing carbon emissions globally.

There was an article somewhere in these threatlds that gave a decent summary:

The Earth cannot sustain the future human population, or even today's, without a major overhaul of socio-cultural practices for using land, water, energy, biodiversity, and other resources

What a lot of people (myself included) struggle with is that the amount and significance of change needed to make an actual difference is huge right now, and it requires a concerted global effort to get anywhere close to halting what feels like an inexorable rise in earth's temperatures.

Until we can change this then humans might as well be described as a virus and looking at forced population control (in this case of transport etc. under covid) and seeing a measurable improvement in our environment feels cathartic and, honestly, easier to obtain than the global overturning of capital.

Snap for all the cars to disappear!

I felt like this watching Black Panther. The "bad" guy wanted to give Wakanda's weapons to the oppressed and downtrodden people of the world, and I was like "yeah, sounds good."
