Source for thinking the degrowth crowd thinks this: Introduction to “The Future is Degrowth”. Does the degrowth crowd really think they can get rid of capitalism without any violence? This seems to have the opposite of a historical precedent, and is a deviation in Marxism, which they seem to heavily draw from. Anytime revolutionaries took the peaceful road they got outcompeted at best and massacred at worst.

    I spent a large portion of time reading materials from Polish lemmy instance, called szmer.info. They associate themselves with anarchists, but they are not very different from libs, maybe except some antifa people. Of course they blocked Lemmygrad. Many of them have so called “free” market views. There are many anarchists post, but none of it is about anything radical. Recently, they posted a stance of Russian anarchists, who are willing to take a power in Russia, so it is very radical but I think also not very realistic

      Ah I see. A very different type of anarchist from the people I interact with locally.

        In last decades, Poles do not make aggressive protests like French. We are actually too calm.
