Currently reading Staying with the Trouble by Donna Hraway for a book club and just got to the part where she reveals herself as an ardent neo-Malthusian and I am so angry that she is using her platform for leftist-palatable eugenics. And I am so so tired of this being accepted in the environmentalist community.

The world produces more food than we need by a long sho. Inconceivable quantities of food are wasted. There's horrific inefficiency in how much land is used to grow crops to feed animals rather than to use that land to feed humans directly.

But a butterfly specialist wrote a book in 1968 saying the world was doomed by human overpopulation and the moral panic that ensued just never seems to have been questioned very deeply.

The most frustrating thing about Haraway siding with the Malthusians is how literally one chapter beforehand she describes how the Hopi were brutalized by white Malthusians who came and killed their sheep out of a faulty idea the sheep were overpopulated. Haraway has a lot to say about the arrogance of these white people but doesn't seem to notice it in her own writing.

‘Each time a story helps me remember what I thought I knew, or introduces me to new knowledge, a muscle critical for caring about flourishing gets some aerobic exercise. Such exercise enhances collective thinking and movement in complexity. Each time I trace a tangle and add a few threads that at first seemed whimsical but turned out to be essential to the fabric, I get a bit straighter that staying with the trouble of complex worlding is the name of the game of living and dying well together on terra, in Terrapolis.’

– Donna Haraway, Staying with the Trouble: Making Kin in the Cthulucene (Durham, 2016), p. 29
