I don't mean to sound harsh, but the first sentence of this post is a mess. Given the amount and complexity of information above the photo, it makes very little sense that it would all be crammed into one sentence. As written, it feels congested and somewhat difficult to follow (though I'm pretty sure I get the point).
Also, from a style perspective, why is the first quote contained in with the body of the text while the second quote is offset?
The content presented is interesting, but the writing and editing seem rushed.

Perhaps Chucky can name a single successful marxist country......or better yet- maybe he should move to one of the few remaining marxist shithole countries still out there.
idiots still pimping that awful marxist/communist mantra....
@7: previous left-liberal hegemony expanded consumption. the welfare state and warfare state expand production and consumption
@6 has a point. capitalism will almost definitely proceed emitting, but labor is not a countervailing force, here. labor wants more jobs, labor wants more stuff. that's more production, which we do with fossil fuels or barely, at all.
we need more regressive taxes on stuff that causes environmental and social ills

Or have the rest of the world take every square foot of land and build houses on it and have 4 babies per couple.
If you understand, you'll know why Club of Rome puts BVO in our Coke.
We can have stuff, someday, when we get more logical.
Logic is our salvation, if we can master it.
@6: it's not one or the other.
A Marxist is an adherent to Marxism, a political ideology which deals with economic policy among other things.
Which is to say this post is confusing from the start and just gets stranger as we traverse the non-sequitur.
