Yeah this doesn’t seem relevant to solarpunk realistically. I appreciate the article, as hard to read as it is. It’s certainly aimed at those already deeply versed in complex political “philosophy.”

One should reject a visible identity and hide their presence, identity, and possible alignments from government. Though what the author doesn’t seem to note is that reading the article, in a society under surveillance, even reading this article should be enough to label you as someone who might align with its views.

On the other hand, more division of the left is certainly what the world needs… But seriously, continuing to diversify left-leaning identities while conservatives continue to rally is the last thing we need. Moreover, if more of the left “hides” their identity, it will continue to make the right appear stronger. And in a world where so much of people’s support depends on appearances and peer pressure, I don’t think we can afford to give up that metaphorical ground.

This seems like a non-issue, just personal anxiety.

Why not just bulk up on stock and then raise prices without necessarily needing to to maximize profits but blaming the tariffs as of day one? I don’t see why this wouldn’t happen

There’s tired, and then there’s sleepy. For me, if I’m not sleepy, there’s about a 5% chance I will be able to fall asleep upon going to bed. I remember plenty of nights in high school going to bed “early” around 10pm, and sure enough I’m still awake at 2am. So first off there’s ability to sleep when needed.

Second, the modern perspective contains a lot of blue light in daily lives that prevents melatonin secretion. Few kids have the self control and presence of mind to properly regulate their screen time at night, even if just from TV, not to mention phones.

Realistically just with the second point, the cards are stacked against them.

It’s not your fault that the title is sensationalist.
