10 crazy central bankers and 10,000 crazy "economists" are allowed to enforce the most absurd ideology in human history and to destroy our entire civilization.

Telling us that we lack numbers and to waste our resources and energy fighting over them.

We are fantastically insane.

IF CRUELTY IS THE POINT OF FASCISM, Americans have turned their bureaucracies into violent, cruelty machines.

it is going to take more than voting out the fascists.

the cruelty is social.

the cruelty is economic.

the cruelty is systemic.

the cruelty is cultural.

how do you radically change a culture to become antifascist?

how do you radically change the mundane so it wont produce and reproduce systemic violence?

that's the real antifa work: to break the cycle of MUNDANE cruelty. /4

2/ "A few good billionaires among the saboteurs don’t justify their existence. That’s why in Kim Stanley Robinson’s climate-fiction novel The Ministry for the Future, billionaires are eliminated as a #climate hazard, their fortunes whittled down to $50m if they comply.
Robinson wrote: “There was scientifically supported evidence to show that if the Earth’s available resources were divided up equally among all 8 billion humans, everyone would be fine. They would all be at adequacy, & the scientific evidence very robustly supported that people living at adequacy, & confident they would stay there (a crucial point), were healthier & happier than rich people.”
On a thriving planet, human beings should be human scale, but the super-rich are on another scale altogether, giants trampling underfoot both nature & our efforts to protect it."

1/ Rebecca Solnit wonders whether one planet can support so many billionaires.

"Billionaires are a menace to the rest of us: their sheer political size warps our public life. Disproportionately older, white & male, they function as unelected powers, a sort of freelance global aristocracy who are too often trying to reign over the rest of us. Some critics think that the supergiant tech corporations that have spawned so many modern billionaires operate in ways that resemble feudalism more than capitalism, & , certainly, plenty of billionaires operate like the lords of the Earth while campaigning to protect the economic inequality that made them so rich & makes so many others so poor. They use their power in arbitrary, reckless & often environmentally destructive ways." https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/nov/20/billionaires-great-carbon-divide-planet-climate-crisis?CMP=share_btn_tw&utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

here's your periodic holiday reminder that FUCK THE SALVATION ARMY

they're a queer hate organization. don't fucking donate to them. only shoplift from their stores. tell their solicitors to eat rocks

It's time. Who's with me?

Pls resist the siren call of conspiracy theories & spreading them during a conflict already full of purposeful disinformation and propaganda from state & non state actors. Let's remember how 9/11 Truth stuff circulated among left & right and turned so many bright people into cranks over time.

I’m not above this shameless plug:

I know many are recommending many Indigenous books for folks to support and learn more about the community.

Consider purchasing those books through an Indigenous bookstore such as my own instead of the huge corporation. (Libraries are a great option too!)
