Please stop celebrating the #coronavirus as some sort of blessing in disguise simply because pollution has gone down due to quarantines.
“The weak will die but it’s okay because it helps the climate” is not climate justice.
That is Ecofascism.

Ecofascism is a dangerous ideology that sees crises like #COVID19 that kill vulnerable people as good because in their minds it's "good for the planet when people die."
But "overpopulation" is not the problem here! Climate change was caused by corporations not "too many people."

"Humanity" isn't what caused the climate crisis.

So don't be so quick to pass off this #coronavirus as a good thing.
People are dying, losing their jobs, and being put in very vulnerable positions. The pain is real.
A crisis like #COVID19 calls for basic human compassion, not crude judgments on who should be allowed to live.
