    Yeah, no, you're correct. I haven't actually read the book, although I'd quite like to. But I've heard its authors talking about the project and they discuss the issues with Wilson's work that you rightly bring up. As far as I understanding it, the book it a critique of the neoliberal approach to environmentalism/climate change and the dependence of its 'solutions' on precisely the kinds of practices you identify

    Don't feel bad about picking up on sus sounding ideas/references, it's what I appreciate about people on this site :af-heart:

      The game was super fun, regardless! Ousted by popular revolutionaries in 2080 🥲

      Very cool to see Verso do something like this, will probably give the book a look over as a result.
