Ok, given my enmity and doubt for a lot of the recent pro-technology posts on these boards...can someone tell me why they think we'll be better off with a neo-urban movement? Are people just so locked into the mindset of urbanization that they cannot conceive of anything else, or do you all really believe that the things inherent to a city can be produced free of domination and hierarchy? This includes domination of the land, of people, of all living things that are sentient and can feel dominated. I do not seriously think that the way to answer thousands of years of urbanization by a different kind of urbanization to be the answer to civilizations' problems. As much as I would like to believe that vertical farming and other technologies will rescue us from capitalism and empire, the way that green capitalism and "sustainable agriculture" has become recuperated argues otherwise.
What am I asking is for well-thought out responses, the kind I've been engaging in with some folks in other posts. If all you intend to say is "green anarchy is stupid lolz" or some such, gtfo.I like my flag like I like my metal.
