After reading enough of finance, I'm completely convinced that the whole FIRE sector exists only in a zero-sum relationship with the all other productive sectors. For the financial sector to win, the productive sectors can only lose.
Along its cult of Growth™, it is a true source of evil.

Worth translating: autonomous groups risk disintegration by aggressive takeover by sociopaths, very often bad actors infiltrating secretly from the state and companies.
Any autonomous group must take for granted bad actors will attempt to destroy it from within.

It's not easy to fully defend against the lies thrown all the time in public. Half truths, evil framings, silencing memes, fallacies from all the repertoire can very often assault and at least for a moment overwhelm you with an urgency to take them as true lest you feel troubled inside.

The Patagonia arson is a realization of my worst fear: fully bad faith agents organized to commit ecocide on a big scale.
Current and standard approaches assume that people acts on good will or at least indifference towards ecosystems, and thus fall flat against intentional attacks.

Once you lack productive land to sustain yourself, you can only do so through production and sale of products and therefore you need stuff being constantly produced to persist, no matter how unnecessary and how perniciously destructive in the long term it is.

The ultimate goal of conservatism and right ideology is the perpetual establishment of caste, the upper position of their chosen by divine, unchallenged decree.
This goal is, of course, utterly repellent. To advance it they become duplicitous, liars and often engage in the motte-and-bailey fallacy.

I'm jaded towards calls to temperance and self improvement because they often come as a no risk, no skin in the game message from influencers for free easy likes. But can certainly approve of this from Earth Liberation Studio:

Everyone always say Venezuela has tons of oil, yet almost nobody points out that is mostly extraheavy petroleum or tar sands, with an EROI low enough to make them worthless to exploit.
Either USA is desperately scraping the bottom of the barrel or cynically aiming to ask for more money for the sham.

Neither surprised nor shocked by the rise of right wing governments in latin american countries.
Same story everywhere: the left governments are inept and worse, corrupt and sellouts who go for meaningless rainbow politics and then use the vile lesser evil argument to ask for more votes.

It's a terrible strategic mistake to portray your enemies as almighty and omniscient. Boosts their ego, frighten your potential allies and scares them into giving up.
Besides, it is not true. Whether it is the oligarchs, their politician puppets, AI, etc. they are all pathetic with weaknesses.

If the previous hand washing of the issue of overpopulation was already suspicious, George Monbiot also joins Musk and the right wing propaganda of population collapse. Funniest is that, if fighting birth rates is futile according to him, why does he care so much only when they are on the decline?

Was OffGuardian always unsufferably contrarian? Their shtick as of late seems to be to snide and dismiss every alternate claim.
Who tells them that -(-establishment) = establishment?
Too bad, another initially decent looking site goes down the drain.

Today I have read 2 posts and writings attempting to dismiss the problem of overpopulation by authors who should knew better.
An arguments boils down to the absence of "serious" (academic) studies and suggestions to handle the problem of a bigger proportion of elderly unable to work.

Noble evil idea:
Start promoting heavily studies that show how microplastics decrease male fertility and how they are tied with declining birth rates and ESPECIALLY inability to keep the pension system going and the housing and stock market always going up.
Immediate ban on plastic from all parties!

Goes with my stance that change via reform is futile due to the vicious resistance of the ruling group:
"nobody with money or power in India wanted to reform [..] They would rather ride the system into oblivion than attempt any serious reformation."

It's my suspicion that the more the children, the more narcissistic and sociopathic the parents likely are.

While I wait for a store which sales bulk liquids like food oil and drinks, I think I'll choose plastic over glass.
Glass can be recycled and reused just like corrupt politicians can be prosecuted and imprisoned (never ever).
Microglasses seem even worse than microplastics.

I've been getting a bunch of posts related to pensions and their incoming crisis. No a single tear will be shed for the fall of a major Ponzi scheme, but what I fear, rather than the Population Collapse™ is the Voting Booth System Collapse, that is, an elderly majority oppressing a young minority.
