His recent death exposed some people who really think he’s some kind of based anti-civ anarchist revolutionary. He’s far from being left, and his views align with ecofascism. It’s so baffling to see people on the left celebrate him when he wrote this.
I don’t get it either. It’s not even like he’s the only anti-civ theorist there is, so I don’t know why they flock to him. I do understand being interested in him, since he’s quite the figure.
EDIT: I do understand he’s an entrypoint for anticiv thought for some people, but even then people should grow out of supporting him.
