It is the 99% v the 1% All the propaganda out there is to get all of us in the 99% to hate each other and to fight among each other so that we don't unite to defeat the 1%. Never forget that!

It is a neo-liberal myth, the idea of an unregulated bank.

Please do have a read of some of David Graeber's words on the policy of Universal Basic Income.

When Andy worked at the US Dept of Treasury, he worked w/ the staff economists to write an internal rpt on: money — what is it? It wasn’t until I introduced him to Graeber’s Debt years later that he realized how much richer it was, and how impoverished the econ rsch was for not having engaged w/ it

You can pop priests with pepper balls, you can drag someone out of a wheelchair, you can truncheon the shit out of a student; that is a violent power they grasp. They are untouchable. You can't visit violence on a puppet without looking silly. Like... dude, you tear gassed Kermit? Oohoo, big man!

Dancing frogs have become a symbol of resistance in the USA. Interestingly, over a decade ago David Graeber wrote a piece on the power of such symbols in protest movements. The piece is called - On the Phenomenology of Giant Puppets. Here is an extract.

“It’s often difficult to determine how much any given action should be seen as…a performance meant to make an impression on an outside audience, and how much it is better seen as a collective ritual meant to educate, inspire, entertain, and transform the sense of possibilities of the participants…”

Walk to the local bookstore in Helsinki today and happy to see Graeber being promoted (I might have done accidentally some spotlight promotion as well) @davidgraeberinst.bsky.social @nikadubrovsky.bsky.social

Really worth reading the full essay. Graeber argues that capitalism didn’t replace slavery -- it rebranded it. A key mistake of the mode-of-production model was reducing “production” to making things instead of also producing people and social relations that constitute social reproduction.
