cross-posted from: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/1102050 > A **Socialist Environmental Coalition Front** should be a movement of making sure any forms of capitalism are unaccepted in the environmentalist struggle. We should allow any forms of socialists, anarchists, and communists alike to join the fight, since we believe the coalition of left wing powers. Environmental struggle AND class struggle are interconnected. We should not allow liberals to be the leading voice.
For those who don't know: Antinatalism, or anti-natalism, is a philosophical position and social movement that assigns a negative value to birth.

Argument for the Greens - more recognized, could achieve federal funding or debate presence Argument for PSL - big dick energy

Believe it or not, just because a government isn't aligned with the United States doesn't make it the hero in every situation. Oppressing and spying on your citizens destroys any claim of people's liberation--full stop. Why is that so hard to grasp?
