Degrowth Isn’t Saving the Planet—It’s Protecting the Rich
The degrowth movement sounds noble—save the planet by consuming less. But when you trace the money, you find it’s bankrolled by 19th-century family fortunes. They already have all the wealth. Degrowth is their strategy to freeze the economy, stop upward mobility, and lock in their dominance. Don’t be fooled. The rich aren’t asking you to sacrifice for the planet; they’re asking you to sacrifice for them.
