A Socialist Environmental Coalition Front should be a movement of making sure any forms of capitalism are unaccepted in the environmentalist struggle. We should allow any forms of socialists, anarchists, and communists alike to join the fight, since we believe the coalition of left wing powers. Environmental struggle AND class struggle are interconnected. We should not allow liberals to be the leading voice.

For those who don't know: Antinatalism, or anti-natalism, is a philosophical position and social movement that assigns a negative value to birth. Antinatalists argue that people should abstain from procreation because it is morally bad (some also recognize the procreation of other sentient beings as morally bad). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antinatalism

Howie Hawkins - Socialist, Green Party, longtime union working class guy Gloria La Riva, Leonard Peltier - "revolutionary marxist party," Peltier is a native American political prisoner

I linked a Chapo Lib House post on the topic for the hell of it.

Reformism isn't the answer and I won't pretend otherwise, HOWEVER, a vote is a vote (despite systemic election fraud) and so therefore, which party is superior or more practical?

Argument for the Greens - more recognized, could achieve federal funding or debate presence

Argument for PSL - big dick energy
