Continuing from this post, Lindberg says near the end of his piece:
"As I’ve been writing this essay, I’ve revisited many of Bernie Sanders’
speeches, op-eds, and policy papers. I’ve got to admit, I really like
the guy. I also think a good number of his policies could be useful in
an America suffering catabolic collapse. [...] I understand why Sanders is not
emphasizing his previous self-description as a socialist, but it is
still visible in many of his policies, as well as his political
temper. On a finite planet, we need to focus on the fact that we are
all in this together, and Sanders has the potential to move us in this
direction. I’ll certainly vote for him, and I may plant a 'Bernie' sign
in our yard, amongst the unkempt weeds and rubble that symbolize my own
catabolic slide out of the middle class."
