Personally I’m pro-degrowth in the sense that I believe we have pretty much all we need right now to make life decent and upright for everyone if we changed how we focus production. I think there is tons redistribution, reallocation, and reprioritization of things.

I don’t have an economic theory or political theory to back up my argument but I would assume we have all the technology we need to help and heal the world right now. I know this just “trust me bro”-energy, but in general if we stopped doing a ton of production of useless things like consumer “treats” and more importantly the engines of war we could use our existing infrastructure to connect and uplift the vast majority of people who we have exploited.

It’s kinda utopian thinking (which isn’t necessarily a bad thing) now that I lay it all out, but I’m very much for any degrowth that functions to firstly stops the exploitation and misery of people whose backs have been broken for this existing system to stand upon. I have no clue how that happens justly but I think degrowth in at least the abstract is a sound starting point.

Just my thoughts, not looking to E-fight someone on something I have admitted I don’t know much about.
