That's a strong slogan.

Because growth doesn't necessarily mean a growth in depleting natural resources. Efficiency, services, recycling etc. There is no reason to assume we will ever run short of material.
Food regrows water can be cleaned. What thing do you think we'll run out of?
Sure oil but we are able to move away from it until then

In order to regrow food you have to not just grow endless corn until the farmland is totally fucking destroyed. You need to not pump CO2 and methane into the air until the ice caps melt and Miami sinks into the sea.

We're pretty much teetering over the point of no return right now.

Capitalism demands waste and destruction. Products are intentionally made to only last a year or two and then they go in the trash and you buy a new one. It's totally fucking crazy.

This is verifiably true, but doesn't make them alike. Both are based on the same dialectical materialism that inspired communism and preceded communism. Both are revolutionary ideologies built around the restructuring of society along ideological lines. The biggest difference would be the economics

It's called increasing efficiency. You think communist states don't require perpetual growth? The only difference is that capitalism sees growth taper off at a certain level of productivity. Communist countries don't share those increases in productivity, so their economies become less and less efficient as they squander more and more resources

State capitalism =/= free market capitalism.
State capitalism has private ownership, as did Soviet citizens. It's just that the markets, and therefore the distribution of goods and services, was controlled by the state

Growth is fueled by efficiency generally speaking and efficiency allows us to live better lives with less shit. So it's actually pro environmentalism not against it.

>>136935622
What? The means of production were state owned in the USSR, until they were forced to embrace reforms starting with market reforms in the late sixties.

sums up this forced multiculturalism nonsense p well, desu senpai
>>
>>136935754
State capitalism is an economic system in which the state undertakes commercial (i.e., for-profit) economic activity, and where the means of production are organized and managed as state-owned business enterprises (including the processes of capital accumulation, wage labor, and centralized management), or where there is otherwise a dominance of corporatized government agencies (agencies organized along business-management practices) or of publicly listed corporations in which the state has controlling shares.

What's the difference between ownership, and control/management?
>>
>>136935961
Socialism is a range of economic and social systems characterised by social ownership and democratic control of the means of production,[10] as well as the political theories, and movements associated with them.[11] Social ownership may refer to forms of public, collective, or cooperative ownership, or to citizen ownership of equity.[12] There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them.[13] Social ownership is the common element shared by its various forms.[5][14][15]
(I can copy paste Wikipedia too)

I would differentiate socialism from state capitalism by the status of private property. I'd call China state capitalism as the state owns a large amount of the means of production but allows private enterprise as well. Whereas in the USSR there was no private enterprise.

You can still have zero growth under a capitalist system if the people stop demanding more and more stuff. The only reason why the economy keeps growing is because there is demand for it to.
>>
>>136933707
Ironically much of the same reasoning for why diversity is a good thing can also be used to argue for why cancer is a good thing.

>There is only a 0.1% genetic difference between different people! We are all the same!

The same can be said for cancer cells. They have the same DNA code as the rest of your cells, except with a few mutations to give them unlimited growth. In much the same way, the small genetic difference between a white man and a nigger can have a huge impact.

then growth starts again.

>tfw humanity is going to burn through it's rare earths including phosphorous like there is an infinite supply thereby precipitating a massive population correction and a future where land fills are mined for rare materials by the survivors
>>
>>136943161
does atoms become destroyed? if you "use" phosphor, does the phosphor molecule then disappear? change into different atoms?
No, the atoms (with the exception of radioactive elements) will always exist in the same ratio on our planet. Only the compounds which it is a part of can change..
recycling will gradually become more economical feasible as the supply of phosphor decline.
>>
Why do companies put xenestrogenes in our food, like dairy milk products?
Xenestrogenes->sped up hormone production->sped up growth->mass production->more consumers->more money
>>
>>136943706

Phosphorous is used for chemical based fertilizer. It is already at critically low levels. The only way to preserve phosphorous in the soil is with intensive, sustainable agriculture. It does not scale to meet industrial needs.

As more hungry mouths fill this wasteful world humanity is going to hit a brick wall when it comes to it's needs for phosphorous. By the time humans get around to trying to conserve what they have left it will be too late.

There are going to be global famines that make Africa look like a holiday and wars over the most basic of resources.

> tfw the entire economy is based on convincing people to buy things they don't need
Like immigrants welfare checks?
>>
>>136944090
My comment was that atoms don't disappear..
If you use oil, the atoms don't disappear, it become carbon dioxide.. The supply of phosphor they use as fertilizer, may diminish, but the actual amount of phosphor atoms on the planet remains the same.
At some point it will become economically feasible to recycle some of the phosphor, which currently are to expensive.
The distribution of atoms on our planet remains constant, the only difference is the compound they participate in which may change..
>>
>>136943706
Entropy will increase, things get used up
>>
>>136944428

You aren't going to recover phosphorous from agricultural runoff that's in the ocean. The only way to recover it is with intensive sustainable agriculture that naturally maintains the level of phosphorous in the soil. Those methods do not scale to the levels of production that humanity would need to sustain itself anywhere near current levels.

The point i'm making is that humans are not going to change their ways until the point of no return is passed. Even if some method of "recycling" is developed it would increase the energy cost of food to such levels that people are going to starve to death regardless because of the cost.

There is no such thing as infinite growth on this planet.
>>
>>136944729
>Entropy will increase
In a time aspect that is million of years, yea that is correct.
Think of the how much energy there is in fusion/fission.
Think of Solar power, as long as the sun shine, we can get useful energy.
Entropy is not a problem.. unless you care about the Morlocks.

Constant growth is needed to repay central bank Jews.

In reality constant growth will end sooner or later and the current rigged system will collapse. Communism won't work either.

Of course I would never ask you to pick between two false choices. You should take the third path.
>>
>>136933449

Growth for the sake of growth is not only the "idealogy" of a cancer cell.

It is the "ideology" of all life as we know it.

Given perfect conditions all life will flourish and keep flourishing and expanding until it is stopped either by outside influences or the diminishment of those perfect conditions.

I know you are going to bring up the "mouse utopia" where the population died out under "perfect conditions". But clearly their conditions were not "perfect". Given a football stadium as an environment would have led to far different conditions than that one room they were confined to.

At any rate. That picture is silly.

Could say rabbits instead of cancer

The problem with communism is that it is also a materialist ideology. It advocates material progress, which means more stuff and environmental degradation. It just disagree with capitalism on how to achieve this progress.

The final red pill is primitivism.
>>
>>136945347

Except rabbits have predators and don't rely on resources that , for their purposes, are considered finite. A better example is deer in the UK, who, if not culled, will rapidly destroy all their sources of food to the point that it won't regrow, and all starve. That's our fate.
