A "broader definition" that you haven't even bothered to give ? Equating Malthus and "malthusians"? Straw-manning much ? What about the Irish Great Famine (shortly after Malthus' death). And I see that it's often blamed on laissez-faire politics ?

Where did you get "identity politics" from ?

Do you realize that peak oil denial is a deeply anti-science position ? (Unless you're thinking of abiotic oil?)
