Do you or anyone you know ever say things like "it's ok if they get my data, I don't have anything to hide"? You might want to think again .. w/ @austerityismurder.bsky.social

Nothing to Hide? With Heidi Boghosian realprogressives.org/mnc-podcast-...

Billie please read the communist manifesto. That’s not how it works

Are we really the sole architects of our success and failure, or is that just what we’ve been taught to believe? What if the “self-made” myth is holding us back from real progress? Great new ep from @austerityismurder.bsky.social realprogressives.org/mnc-podcast-...

“The self-made man is a lie that we have taught people to keep them from complaining, to keep them from whining, to keep them from asking for better from their government, to keep them from asking for better from their employer.” realprogressives.org/mnc-podcast-...

"Republicans are actually Marxists" "The 👏 Big 👏 Tent 👏 Needs 👏 To 👏 Include 👏 Fascists" "People criticizing the ACA from the Left are actually against healthcare!" I love this website lol

"Christians seeking a stimulating political discourse should pick this up" (they also say I'm "digressive," which I'm not gonna even try to argue against lol) www.publishersweekly.com/9780802884053 bookshop.org/p/books/why-...

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

Today I wrote in @lpeblog.bsky.social with Amna Akbar & @sameer-ashar.bsky.social about how legal scholars & teachers might act in solidarity with movements in this moment, in the face of fascism: lpeproject.org/blog/movemen...

#Capitalism suffers from psychosocial pathologies, and by blaming the marginalized, it inevitably paves the way for #fascism in our society. @austerityismurder.bsky.social & @profdavidfields.bsky.social

The most annoying thing about centrists is how smart they think they are while they propose policies and strategies that have failed consistently over the course of hundreds of years

Brett Scott talks with @austerityismurder.bsky.social about libertarianism as an ideological tool that protects elite power by promoting a false narrative of individualism and “free” markets. realprogressives.org/mnc-podcast-...

You cannot be a progressive if you think that money is scarce, and you can only tinker around the edges of the current status quo. You have to get away from this thinking if you want to solve the crises facing the world today. @austerityismurder.bsky.social realprogressives.org/mnc-podcast-...

What is meant by “imports are a benefit, and exports are a cost?" and what are the implications...? In a floating regime, a currency-issuing govt is not financially constrained in its domestic policy by “trade imbalances,” as it would've been under Bretton Woods. @austerityismurder.bsky.social
