Yea
There was an alternative that didn’t damage the ozone layer and wasn’t much more expensive. It was kind of a slam dunk because it didn’t threaten capital interests. Most changes needed to meaningfully combat climate change do threaten the interests of capital, and therefore there’s been propaganda for 50 years about it.

i remember talking about utah child protection laws n shit. don’t remember the full context but it was like
Literally Every Single Other Country: The child has the right to privacy
The United States: we agree but won’t do jack shit
Like 10 Utah Politicians: The child has no right to privacy
(idr if that’s exactly what happened but i think it was literally a bunch of utah state legislatures saying that children don’t have the right to privacy b/c they wanted to get some bill through)

i remember reading some news or magazine article that I have not actually verified but im gonna post about it anyways just. note that i haven’t verified it. here’s the link if u want it How Native Americans guarded their societies against tyranny
i read the article for a bit and once they started Actually Talking about it i went “Oh they guarded against tyranny by rejecting capitalism”
and, obviously capitalism as a concept as we know it didn’t actually Exist back then
but i mean like
the article had quotes like this
The residents of North America’s great cities responded to these stresses by reversing the centralization of power and wealth. Some revolted against their leaders. Others simply left the cities and spread out into smaller towns and farms. All across the continent, they built smaller, more democratic and more egalitarian societies.
reversing the centralization of power and wealth?
Sounds suspiciously like rejecting capitalism to me
and shit like this too
Leaders generally governed by facilitating decision-making in council meetings and public gatherings. They gave gifts to encourage cooperation. They heard disputes between neighbors over land and resources and helped to resolve them. Power and prestige came to lie not in amassing wealth but in assuring that the wealth was shared wisely. Leaders earned support in part by being good providers.
Power and prestige came to lie in not amassing wealth but in assuring that wealth was shared wisely
so they guarded against tyranny by rejecting capitalism, got it
