It's not a matter of what we like, it's a matter of what is necessary.

Or we can stop overengineering everything, stop raising meat livestock, stop growing cash crops in areas prone to drought, and go vegan.

Apple Business Manager and JAMF both will refuse to work in Firefox for me. GoDaddy frequently complains too.

It needs to happen fast given pollution is directly tied to gdp growth. If it doesn't happen soon there won't be any human lifetimes for it to happen in.

It's not the French Revolution because the French Revolution can only happen the once. History doesn't repeat, but it can rhyme.

Thanks for explaining to me something I already clearly knew given I gave you specifics about the French Revolution, very appreciated.

Not gonna apologize cause I didn't "push" maoism. I'm just asking for people with "left" politics to identify an ideological framework that resonates with them and then apply it to their lives instead of complaining about the right and begging capitalists for crumbs. If that's anarchism, great. If that's ecosocialism, great. If that's maoism, great. Anything is better than identifying as a "leftist".

What's a progressive versus a leftie versus a left liberal?

Are you still a capitalist?

So, a Republican is a leftist?

Get a coherent ideology. Identify with something other than vague gesturing to better policies.

That's again vague enough to apply to some Republicans.

Or was coherent for the French Revolution, but we aren't currently undergoing the French Revolution. Also, not aware of a "leftist" party or organizing body from then. Were they the Jacobins, or the Feuillants?

Not trying to insult anyone.

Asking people to have coherent ideology beyond a few policy points. Something that has a worldview that is looking beyond the next election cycle.
