Introduction

The New Discourses Podcast with James Lindsay, Episode 125 The "Net Zero" and "Sustainability" movements, which no one outside of captured institutions and minds particularly likes or trusts, is advancing to a new initiative, whether we like it or not. That initiative is every bit as bad as it sounds: Degrowth. The idea is that the West has grown too big to be sustainable, so it is time to back off from growth, or to move "beyond growth," to draw another of their brands. This is little more than the controlled demolition of Western Civilization on an economic level, and it is unsurprisingly just the newest branding of Communism. In this episode of the New Discourses Podcast, host James Lindsay walks you through some information to introduce the concept of "degrowth" to you and compare it to other great Communist catastrophes in history, perhaps most obviously Mao Zedong's disastrous "Great Leap Forward," which at least pretended that it was going to make things bigger and better for China instead of smaller and worse. Join him to learn about this unfolding disaster, which we must attack vigorously until they stop trying to force us into it.
