And before anybody tells me some shit about bourgeois mismanagement of resources, shut the fuck up before i block you, I know. That doesn't change the inherent reality of there being an actual real finite number of human beings this planet can support period, much less comfortably. Kill all the bourgeoisie and redistribute everything equitably and you've raised the capacity for a comfortable life for a huge number of people, but you haven't changed the fact that if that number increases indefinitely, so too will the requirements to sustain it, and at some point something is going to break unless populations decline on their own (except what's going to happen is climate change- being effectively a reduction in carrying capacity due to numerous factors- is going to make that happen)
