    Isn't this the most upvoted comment in the thread?

    This article is idiotic. It's anticommunist drivel that just exists to help the western left rationalize shitting on actually existing/existed socialism in China/USSR because they weren't green enough.

    Sounds rather upset to me.

      I'm not. MF_COOM isn't. I'm the one that posted it. And Saito is a tankie too. Besides, the comment isn't about degrowth.

        Good good. Happy for you.

        But I struggle to see how Saito can be called a tankie when he's so critical of the Soviet Union and of historical communism.

        Or maybe we have fundamentally incompatible definitions of what is a tankie.

        Don't get me wrong: I like Saito's ideas. Are they going to happen? No.
