Been re-reading Langdon Winner's "The Whale and the Reactor".
Winner published this in 1988 and it still 100% applies. His criticism of "values" discourse, of certain strategies of trying to defend important structures by adopting the language and thinking of the opponent. The focus on numbers while devaluing experience. The hollowness of the decentralization discourse.
Damn.
