If you think the earth is dying because poor people are having too many babies, that's about three logical steps away from ecofascism.

    if you're talking about overpopulation without talking about the inefficiencies and epic waste of capitalism and statism, it's just genocide snuff. full stop. and i never hear capitalist waste as a factor when libs bring this up, so its just their genocide porn. which is sick. because libs are sick.

    and honestly, you need to talk about efficiency before you talk about genocide. because it's a bigger factor and can't be fixed with mass murder. at least not with JUST mass murder.

      Lol nobody is talking about genocide, you just put that on people who act like overpopulation is a serious issue worth discussing.

      I'm sure you can find a few weirdos on Twitter but basically ecofascism doesn't really exist, it's a fiction that anarchists like to obsess over instead of the actual problem of an impending climate apocalypse.

        basically ecofascism doesn’t really exist

        Yes and no. It doesn't have any major following now, but it's easily foreseeable. Talking about it is as realistic as talking about the possibility of getting a competent post-Trump fascist in 2024 or 2028.

          If you look in this thread can you point to one person who is referring to ecofascism in a way that refers to some theoretical future movement?

            I see people talking about it with the same certainty they talk about getting a competent fascist in the near future, and I think both discussions are reasonable. The dangerous nature of fascism means you can't wait until it's kicking down your door to take it seriously.

              This is always what Libs do. It’s not fascism until the fascists win. Every. Single. Time.

              How does ecofascism even work? Like would wealthy nations bomb poor nations or use structural adjustments so they stop developing? Because that is already happening.
