How can we understand the socio-ecological relations set in train as "commodity frontiers" rolled across stolen Aboriginal land? A question I grappled with through the internally-related stories of wool, coal, and sugar.

So how does the ecosocialist method travel to the settler colonies of Australia and Aotearoa? How does it speak to the Capitalocene, or the 'overshoot' conjuncture?

Some more context to understand the relationship between the ALP and fossil fuel exports - we're leading the world in expanding coal exports! This just in from the @iea.org: www.iea.org/reports/worl...

@chrisbowenmp.bsky.social
added me, but I think he has more important things to be doing... like ending new coal and gas, building renewables, and electrifying everything?
