[Thread] More from #KleeBenally 's book, #NoSpiritualSurrender. This may be a hard read for some folks, but I felt it was necessary to continue where I left off, where Klee states how many "convince themselves" that "killing the Earth just a little bit less is an appropriate response."

"This is exemplified with #ClimateJustice movement organizing, where grand proposals of a ‘GreenEconomy’ or a less #ecologically devastating form of #capitalism is the means to achieve human survival with a habitable planet.

"‘#BigGreen’ non-profit #corporations and so-called non-governmental organizations [#NGOs] (yes even the smaller #Indigenous ones too) set the terms for dissent and triage this crisis to the point where we can see the future coming back at us, but what else can be expected from marching in circles? After all, in the recycling of capitalism into climate justice, we still end up scrubbing their palaces green, resting our heads in green prisons, and sustaining unsustainable lifestyles.

"‘Just transition’ is a strategy of economic redemption to further preserve ways of being that are unsustainable by design, you can’t lobby away #colonialism and #capitalism, no matter how hard you try."

[Thread] The next installment from #KleeBenally 's book, #NoSpiritualSurrender. This may feel like an attack to some, but read his words all the way through. He spoke truth!

"The ‘Green New Deal,’ like its parent ‘Green Economics’ are meant to sustain the US #settler colonial project and the #capitalist relations whose interest lay within the specificity of continuing the ongoing exploitation (destruction) of the whole of the Earth, while cashing in of course. In the case of the Green New Deal, which in many ways begat its own child, that of the Red New Deal, who aside from outright plagiarizing, fronting, and co-opting the long-term #Indigenous #ClimateJustice work, the Red Nation’s ‘Red New Deal,’ proposes an anti-capitalist and woefully limited anti-colonial response that not only reinforces #industrialization but ultimately leads to the ongoing participation in capitalism proper, just ‘renamed’ and ‘reformed’ under a ‘transitional’ Socialist Rubric, that leads to their Marxist organization’s propositions for a ‘#decolonized’ authoritarian worker-run state as the best solution. So while we’re collectively dying from the air we can’t breathe, the water we can’t drink, or both priced out of accessibility in the here and now, we are meant to await the building of yet another Socialist Utopia. A utopia belt upon the current dystopia of growing wastelands and climate disasters on every continent. From deadly #nuclear power to lithium and rare Earth mineral #mining, the the privatization of water, the greening of any economy is still a war against #MotherEarth and all existence."
