@wvenator Between beginnings and ends, are Ranges. So De:growth has its correlate Pro:growth.
Linguistically, the equation is sometimes illustrated as degrow~overgrow, within the growth 'set' (see: Set Theory).
In simplex~complex sets, growth overlaps with more complex sets, such as cascading climate effects from abusive "growth", like #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy oppression tactics, for more #Capitalism #greed.

Cheer up!😳🧨💥
On 27 January 27 2026, the Doomsday Clock was set at 85 seconds to midnight, the closest it has ever been to Doomsday.

Ja & das hängt sogar direkt zusammen.
So erhält der deutsch-amerikanische Milliardär & Apokalyptiker Peter Thiel - der auch JD Vance „aufbaute“ - eine Auszeichnung (!) des AxelSpringer-Medienkonzerns aus Berlin. Döpfner ließ sich dazu gerade in der „WELT“ interviewen.
Der gleiche Konzern hatte 2025 auch eine Wahlempfehlung des nichtdeutschen X-ers & Milliardärs Elon Musk für die AfD abgedruckt.
Habe mich verschiedentlich zu diesen Gefahren geäußert, z.B. hier 👇.

Leaving you all with an excerpt from an essay from 2022, before I re-boost posts from yesterday and boost quoted posts. TY to @MaQuest , @jblue , @rooftopjaxx and everyone who shared and/or chimed in! #ABetterWorldIsPossible !
Can Solarpunk Save the World?
The choice, then, is clear: solarpunk, or barbarism.
by Stacey Balkan, November 15, 2022
Excerpt: "Offering an imperfect but clear-eyed hope, rather than so many apocalyptic nightmares, is a key goal of solarpunk fiction. While many critics argue that radical change will only come about following the total collapse of Earth systems—in other words, the apocalypse imagined by popular climate fiction and much recent zombie fare—it has become increasingly evident that such alarmism possesses no political utility.
"Furthermore, in a discussion about climate and energy justice, we must acknowledge that, for many #Indigenous communities, the 'apocalypse' happened long ago: during the long 16th-century, when an expanding plantation system expedited the removal and enslavement of millions of #BIPOC persons in order to accommodate the #hyperconsumption of imperial centers like London.
"Apocalypse, as a geohistorical event or literary trope, is thus not central to solarpunk. That is, solarpunk doesn’t require an environmental apocalypse, because most solarpunk practitioners understand the material legacies of #SettlerColonialism as on ongoing apocalypse.
"Consequently, solarpunk worlds are not necessarily postapocalyptic (nor set in the future), but they are #postextractivist. Responding to the ethos of #extractive #capitalism — whereby the colonized exist as 'fuel … for the sake of someone else’s good life' — solarpunk imaginaries demand a thorough dismantling of fossil-fueled modernity and the material infrastructures (and attendant cultural expressions) that occasioned our comprehensive dependence on prehistoric carbon. Quite logically then, solarpunk also rejects the techno-utopian project of saving industrial modernity via increasingly hubristic geoengineering schemes."

@gerrymcgovern It's worse when one considers countries like Qatar, who commit 10% of their oil profits, to greenwash pushback, so they keep their 90% oil market share in energy.
Distributing accountability to the increasingly ignorant, is a proven method of abusive wealth. These sleight of hand tactics, with Divide and Conquer Strategies, have exponentiated the wealthiest 1%, into .01%.

Read an interesting development of #AI use in drone #warfare operations and a confirmation from the #Ukrainian mililtary that fully autonomous #AI-Driven #drones is not the goal at all in the changing environment of the battlefield.
“ Much of the conversation surrounding artificial intelligence assumes the future belongs to fully autonomous drones. Battlefield experience suggests something more nuanced: soldiers prefer to be in the loop, because fully AI-enabled systems can actually make friendly forces less safe. In actual combat, over sustained periods, fully autonomous systems have trouble distinguishing friendly drones from foe. That confusion can cost battlefield advantage — and lives.
The objective therefore is not to remove humans from the fight; it is to remove unnecessary workload while preserving human judgment where it matters most. Recent Ukrainian interceptor systems automate much of the interception process, yet the operator still selects the target and retains the ability to abort the engagement. Even Ukraine’s most advanced autonomy initiatives preserve meaningful human control over the mission.
Which points to the more interesting question. It is not “how quickly can we take humans out of the loop?” It is “how do we build systems that military professionals actually trust when the shooting starts?” Trust — not autonomy — is likely to be the decisive factor in whether autonomous systems get adopted at all.” (Source: Breaking Defence)
I note that the #AI which is discussed here has little to do with the LLM-based GendAI slop machines peddled by #TechBros nor the massive #DataCentres these #StatisticalEngines require to produce #simulacra of text for human consumption.

“We should end the ‘tax-free lifestyle loan,’ the gimmick that lets the ultra-wealthy borrow against their stock portfolios while reporting no taxable income.”

@CharlieMcHenry I'd rather snort with derision, than SQL like a pig!
#TechBros gotta Bros, and control as much of vital resources, as possible. So, par for the course.

Thousands of OpenAI Agents Quietly Turned an Abandoned Wiki Into Their Coordination Channel - This is ominous, don’t you think? A wake up call to all humans. Our #AI and #Robot overlords are conspiring already. Imagine when, through a hacked network, they have access to ‘smart’ autonomous drones and weapon systems. Don’t know about you, but I feel very uncomfortable with the #billionaires and #TechBros currently controlling this powerful new technology. No guardrails, very little or no regulation, an utter lack of ‘adult oversight’. Seems like an AI apocalypse waiting to happen… https://thehackernews.com/2026/09/thousands-of-openai-agents-quietly.html #ArtificialIntelligence

@vicfroh The painful fact that .01% control most of the world's wealth, may be the worst self esteem issue ever in human behavior.

i cannot believe these people are regurgitating this #techbros bullshit, when we have evidence “ai agents” could be underpaid geeks in the Phillipines or Kenya.
this sci-fi bullshit passing for #journalism needs to stop

@gerrymcgovern #sheeple endowing #TechBros and #FossilFuels #Oligarchy, with the future of their children.
Despicable.
Remove the abusers from power.

I know I'm supposed to be like "LOL WHAT A GOATED LEGEND MOVE" or something, but to me it's just gross rich tech bro shit.
Nauseating public displays of excess 'for the lulz' while the rest of us burn.

@fulelo
Yet another link in the Financial bubble created by #TechBros and their #GenAISlop. You buy my #chips and I’ll buy your #shares swap deals. The same funds go around and around and stock exchange speculators are frothing at the mouth with anticipation of share price increases… #PonziScheme -

Es wird Zeit, #Google Stück für Stück wieder aus unseren Leben zu entfernen 😡
Etwa:
- Ecosia statt Google Suche
- Keine KI oder Vibe statt Gemini / Google Suche
- CoMaps statt Google Maps
- DeepL statt Google Übersetzer

@EUCommission Any chance putting those great minds in charge of vital resources, so abusive #TechBros can't corner EU root infrastructure?

@ProPublica Petrochemical companies can be worse than *pure* fossil fuels, in that they not only further entrench the industry via multiple processing methods, thereby indebting employment loyalty and tax dollars, but they even lack Exxon-Mobil's ethical standard, following The Industrial Revolution, in publicizing an independent study into the effects of Greenhouse Gases, and cascading ecosystem destabilization.
Dow, Monsanto, 3M - the wealthiest and most powerful of petrochemicals - failed that standard tenfold.
