>You can advocate for sustainability … while being strongly capitalist just fine. […] excluding a large intersection of people otherwise interested in the non-political parts

the far-right is literally trying to make it illegal for companies to say they're taking environmental concerns seriously (i.e. ESG bans in tx, fl, etc). in 2026, sustainability is not apolitical.

(it's _never_ been apolitical but i will spare you that lecture.)

Most of the far-right are idiot contrarians (my personal view) and they have no claim on capitalism.

Just because far-righters are against sustainability does not mean you have to be a post-marxist anarchist (or w/e) just to be for it.

> does not mean you have to be a post-marxist anarchist

if you oppose a far-right project, what are they going to call you? lol. here is your membership card for the cultural marxist party, welcome aboard comrade!

i just think it's folly for people to complain that "not destroying the environment" is a partisan issue in 2026. being a nice person is a partisan issue in 2026.

Despite what "far-right" groups may claim, politics isn't one giant us-versus-them war; I refuse to stoop down to their level.

The US right likes to call their opponents pedophiles, but it would be ridiculous for anyone to adopt that label for themselves because of it.

In Germany literally "linksgrünversifft", which loosely translates to filthy green/left advocate.

Which is, critically, completely unrelated to both communism and anarchism; while a lot of the political spectrum opposes the far right, only a tiny fraction are actual communists or anarchists (at least in Europe).

I do feel your pain that a significant part of modern politics involves completely indefensible, irrational and irresponsible positions, but that still does not mean you have to be marxist/anarchist or even anti-capitalist just to oppose that idiocy.
