@e5c46634 - I think if you want degrowth to actually occur you'll need to use some of those more amicable options.  I just think it won't catch on with that name - except with a limited audience of people, those of a contrarian ilk.

For example, "Black Lives Matter" says what it means, it's a reasonably hard phrase to hard to coopt, and indeed, it's un-sugar-coated enough that a lot of people actually out against it.
