Capitalism and Climate Crisis
At this point there is no doubt in my mind whatsoever, that the continued global operation of extractivist capitalism despite the evidence of impending climate apocalypse, will some day soon be regarded as the most violent crime against humanity in all of our collective history. If fascism is primarily a capitalist reaction, one could then argue that increasing devastation from climate crisis is the byproduct of that reactionary capitalist order. Unfortunately it’s a byproduct that promises to start killing the poorest among us first, and as such, any leftist analysis of modern history of politics must ultimately center the battle against capitalism-induced climate chaos on a boiling planet.
