  > The ideological framing of the degrowth movement is all around us.

If growth (which itself is super vague; growth of what? benefiting whom?) was always a good thing without exception, this complaint would automatically be valid. However we're awash in ideological framing all around us supporting growth, even when growth is—yes Virginia—sometimes detrimental. An ideological counterbalance is desperately needed.

Wouldn't it be weird if growth of everything was always a good think in any scenario, forever? :-\ Maybe we should be just slightly more selective and data-driven than that...
