@ChrisMayLA6 Not necessarily - I don't see in the article that he claims that degrowthers are actually claiming this, just that it is part of the 'image problem'. I'd contend that that image is indeed the result of PR campaigns from growth advocates, rather than what degrowth advocates actually say, but that it's very real. However, he still doesn't seriously engage with work such as Jason Hickels on Decent Living Standards for example. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2452292924000493
New paper by Jason Hickel and Dylan Sullivan on energy needs for a planned economy that provides a Decent Living Standard for everyone on earth. TL;DR it's about a third of current energy use. We should do less useless things for capitalists and finance and more useful things for people who do not have a decent living standard. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2452292924000493
