Trump Is a Degrowther | What else do you call a strategy designed to raise prices and lower productivity?
What else do you call a strategy designed to raise prices and lower productivity?
Easy, a disaster kleptocracy
Because the motivation is to steal and destroy.
Feels like a hit piece on degrowth.
They eventually admit:
Unlike typical degrowthers—with their focus on long-term human flourishing and the conservation of the planetary ecosystem—Trump is engaged in financial nihilism.
So why try to apply the label? Hoping MAGA will flinch?
Because the neoliberals must continue to edge their psuedo-intellecutalism kink, it's all they've got left, knowing fancy words, bloviating about them, and then finally admitting the whole excersize was meaningless intellectual masturbation.
Why do they do this?
Its the Atlantic.
They have an apparently terminal case of false moral and intellectual superiority.
They're just giving hoity toity types the script for a thought excercise version of an argument they theoretically could have with a MAGA, if only the MAGA was sufficiently educated and well mannered.
Traitor. That's what you call someone who is trying to destroy a country at the behest of a foreign power.
What a libelous attack on Degrowth.
Shooting someone on the street lowers population and consumption, but we call that murder, not Degrowth.
Someone needs to Degrowth Trump
@silence7 He likes #stagflation because he thinks it’s something that happens at a stag party.
Stupid. I call it stupid.
I suspect it’s probably they are all morons who they think are gods gift to humanity.
I also have a feeling that wrecking the economy is an intentional play to get the fed to lower interest rates so rich people can get loans that are basically free against their assets (like stocks) to avoid capital gains taxes.
I call it sabotage.
