Marxist Ecology

A framework applying Marxist analysis to ecological questions—examining how capitalism drives environmental destruction, how class relations shape environmental impacts, and how ecological crisis might be resolved through systemic change. Marxist Ecology argues that capitalism's drive for endless growth is incompatible with ecological limits, that environmental harm is distributed along class lines, and that solving ecological crisis requires transcending capitalism. It draws on Marx's analysis of the "metabolic rift" between humanity and nature under capitalism, and on contemporary work connecting ecological and economic crises. Marxist Ecology is both analytical and political—understanding the crisis to overcome it.

"Capitalism can't solve climate change because it needs growth and nature has limits. That's Marxist Ecology: the contradiction at the heart of the system. Green technology won't save us if the system requires endless expansion. Marxist Ecology diagnoses the disease: capital's drive to accumulate regardless of consequences. The cure isn't better technology; it's a different system."

Marxist Social Ecology

A synthesis of Marxist analysis and social ecology—examining how capitalism, class relations, and social hierarchies drive ecological destruction, and how ecological liberation requires social liberation. Marxist Social Ecology argues that the domination of nature and the domination of humans are historically linked, both rooted in hierarchical social structures that capitalism intensifies. It draws on Marx's analysis of capitalism and social ecology's insight that ecological problems are social problems. Marxist Social Ecology is both critique and vision: understanding how we got here and imagining how we might live differently.

Marxist Social Ecology "You can't have ecological sustainability with capitalism because capitalism requires endless growth. That's Marxist Social Ecology: the system is the problem. Not individual consumption, not technology, but the drive to accumulate. Social ecology without class analysis misses the engine; Marxism without ecology misses the consequences. Together, they see the whole: a system that destroys both people and planet."

Breadhead 

Someone who is addicted to obtaining money and building wealth. A money addict and fanatic. Breadheads often work more than one full-time job, and some even participate in illicit activities to "obtain the bread".

A breadhead is like a crackhead, but for money instead of crack.

I don't buy the schmegegge about Morty sleeping with Moira.
His version of the story was pure schmegegge.
The whole schmegegge was made up to get Liz a little bit of attention.

Looking or experiencing something nice after witnessing something horrid like a disgusting gif or a disturbing video. Typically used as eye bleach are nice images of whatever makes the disturbed person happy.

*Looks up images of puppies and kittens.*
"That's good eye bleach."
