And we knew this. This wasn't speculation. We studied it, we had the talking points. We trained volunteers to explain this to people. It's not a surprise. Rich people don't flee places with good quality of life when we increase the quality of life. They might try to cheat us, but they don't leave.

Jotenkin tässä paljon asiaa, ja vanha teksti ihana. Osuustoiminta, osuuskunnat yms. Esim: " Meidän ei tarvitse miellyttää osakkeenomistajia emmekä tähyile ulkomaille. Voitot sijoitetaan takaisin tehtaaseen ja työntekijöidemme hyvinvointiin, tiedottaja Esther Carreras sanoo." 👏 yle.fi/a/74-20193329

Framework of ecological sovereignty "..is capable of overcoming tunnel visions that have favoured false market solutions to climate change and treating nature as divisible pieces that can be commodified at will. (..) It confronts the imperative of capitalist growth and [..]damaging economic activ.."

This clutch of fucks… we literally put a sex-crime ring at the center of global power. Utter madness.

Oh my this text! This should be read and especially by so called liberal left-wing! I Will recommend professors and teachers in my sociology faculty to get in to these thoughts & arguments. Might come later to point out some of the arguments that have also puzzled my mind & why I have been critical.

TRUMP: You have to bring in talent INGRAHAM: Well, we have plenty of talented people in America TRUMP: No you don't. No. INGRAHAM: We don't have talented people here?

back from brazil @nzpolicylab.bsky.social supporting Lula's industrial policy :) "At this year’s climate summit, the US is out and Europe is struggling. But emerging countries are embracing renewable energy thanks to a glut of cheap equipment" www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/c... bsky.app/profile/kate...

Mä tartten vertaistukiryhmän, jossa saa apua tähän suomalaisten päättäjien ja median aiheuttamaan ahdistukseen. Kun katson vierestä voimattomana kuinka Suomelle ja suomalaisille tehdään koko ajan pahaa. Media vain kannustaa käyttämään "korjaamiseen" niitä samoja keinoja jotka sen pahan aiheuttavat

"In China you have capitalists, but you don't have a capitalist class. They are not allowed to create their media, they are not allowed to control political parties" Great answer to a question I'm asked a lot when I try to explain the difference between markets and capitalism.

if you’re wondering what TV & radio would look like without the bbc if the right had its way, picture the state of our privatised rivers & seas, but instead it’s raw sewage pumped into your telly & speakers

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Jotenkin voisin nähdä että Sauna+ilmasto yhdistelmänä tässä olis jatkoinnovointi potentiaalia suomalaisille 🤔

This is personally very much useful so just for my archives to remember to read and as an useful source. And generally worth sharing, or as I assume this being "would be good to read" in 'norther' sphere for different people in the so called or said fields, especially in academic ones.

Excellent essay here on the slow strangling of mass literary culture in the West - most clearly in the US, but it's obviously happening here too

Partly because so many formerly leftwing parties have turned to the right, there's a lot of confusion about what right and left mean in politics. I hope this helps: The right defends economic power. The left resists economic power.

Here’s a quick roundup of highlights from research we published in 2024, on unequal exchange, ecosocialism, and post-capitalist transformation. As always, free PDFs are available via the link at the end of the thread. 🧵

Well, you angloamericans imported efficiently your capitalistic sh*t & all its ideals&values, aswell as formation of society, functions & productions, individualism & other senses of superiority&entitlement alongside western imperialism. So yes, it did work in the past before current globalization.

"Unlike old authoritarianism, (..) this new system rules through code, capital, and infrastructure It’s a self-reinforcing loop: Ideology fuels venture capital → capital captures the state → the state feeds the same private systems that built it. A new model of power — privatized sovereignty." 🤯😵‍💫❕️

this is incredibly lucid and valuable research.

For some reason the media is not mentioning that the reason GTA6 is being delayed is they fired 40 staff over threats of unionization and now the rest of their staff are revolting

"We are witnessing not just a technological or organizational transformation within one country, but a geopolitical transformation in which the long-held advantages of the big and powerful are being undermined by cheap, shareable innovations.""(..)our bet is that it [AI] will accelerate it [trend]."

Lyhyellä aikavälillä se varmasti on tuottavaa. Pitää myös toivoa, että tekoäly/kvantti/[insert tech]-huuma osataan lähestyä realistisesti ja pohtivasti, mitä sillä oikeasti halutaan ja ketä se hyödyntää. bsky.app/profile/tech...

As SNAP hangs in the balance for nearly 42 million people, misinformation is rampant. Myths of laziness and fraud persist when we should be talking about too low wages for workers, income inequality, and our threadbare social safety net. In this guest post, Adam Chandler sorts fact from fiction:

"One fascinating part of the Trump era is the way all the liberal human rights trappings are nonexistent & we get raw,out-in-the-open colonial resource grabs.This article has it all:divvying up oil & minerals,predatory IMF loans,w/ cameos by UBS, Barclays,World Bank!" www.semafor.com/article/11/0...

Today a story I've spent months reporting and writing runs on @desmog.com and @theguardian.com. It's based on hundreds of exclusive documents revealing how Exxon funded the rightwing Atlas Network to spread climate denial across Latin America and the Global South. www.desmog.com/2025/11/03/a...

Teen Vogue had also been doing great stuff on labour, unions and work in the US.

Not read it yet but thought it might be worth to share, as I repeatedly and so often emphasize the role & impact of imperialism - also how it affects people in different ways, also inte the imperial core. But in the most brutal ways as a society or in the questions of life &violence in Global North.

This should first-page news everywhere and prompt all EU countries to invite US ambassadors to explain these actions. US aggression should not go unmet. But our mouse-like leaders are almost certainly going to let also this pass.

This is the US but the UK figures are not far off. Unless you honestly believe the top 10% create 50% of all economic value then †by definition† this group is massively undertaxed. Tax them!

So I wake up to read that Trump is threatening military action against Nigeria. Below is a list of 10 countries that notes 4 that have either being threatened by Trump or currently attacked. Can anyone guess what the numbers on the right represent?

90% recyclable but not 90% recycled. The costs and lack of infrastructure are prohibiting recycling renewables at anywhere near the rate that industries claim is technically possible. Uncoupling isn't happening fast enough and it's irresponsible to suggest otherwise.

The tech optimist posts about how renewables are contributing a larger share to the global energy mix, or how EVs are replacing combustion engines are driving me mad. Overall material throughput is continuing to rise, and that's a massive problem.

The result of unbridled greed.

Think one of the most important&transformative shift towards all kinds of justice and habitable planet would be collaboration&solidarity between working classes and the poor between Global North and the Global South for nature&environment&themselves &their societies, against the ruling class&wealthy

We used to own our essential services, like water, energy, and transport. Not anymore. This week @kmilb.bsky.social, co-director of @abundance-org.bsky.social, joined the New Economics Podcast to talk Radical Abundance: how to win a green democratic economy. 🎧 linktr.ee/neweconomics...

Normal country

"The global economy now depends on two complementary engines.[T]hey sustain a cycle of accumulation that worsen inequality between regions and between classes. Until this dual structure is broken,[..] the South[..remain..] to dependence,[&prosperity of..]North will rest on the exhaustion of others."

I’ve written about a lot of horrible historical figures in American politics and I always get earnest questions asking “but did they really believe that?” I get the curiosity but I tend to remind people what they do in public is vastly more important than what they tell themselves in private

Like that taking action and standing up to that imperial entity & world's bully and taking narrative, framing & accusations from it and flip it. Like "you capitalistic gun loving violent fanatic & maniac crackhead, stop spreading your shit to us abroad"

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness. Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

The #austerity policies of the Finnish government have thoroughly failed on the one objective the government used to justify them: Lowering public debt In the meanwhile, Finnish healthcare system is collapsing and unemployment skyrockets We became a case study www.helsinkitimes.fi/finland/finl...

"By preaching that technology shaped by capital is the ultimate horizon, Aghion implicitly accepts that nature, labour and society are second-order variables, subordinated to a fetishized technical devenir". @nobelprize.bsky.social @newleftreview.bsky.social newleftreview.org/sidecar/post...

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

Useimmiten ei jaksa sanapoliisiutta ja kun tässä itse sisältöhän on asiaa, mutta ehkä siksikin, että on vuosi 2025; itsensä valkoiseksi ns "hyväksi" ihmiseksi mieltävien keskuudessa ja "paremmissa" piireissä noi alkeet käyty about vuoskymmen sitten. - *kaikki* syrjinnän muodot ei ole *rasismia*

Have to reshare this, probably again and again. Perfect description when looking at how are things going on in the *west*world. Tässä kohdin lähinnä harmitus demareista,vihreät kun vain toteuttaa ydin itseään (& vas.liitolla taas omat *vikansa* eikä myöskään vaihtoehto,mut viimeisimmästä pisteet).

So for-profit AI companies have trained on the world's largest collaborative volunteer project and a precious free resource, to make money for their for-profit enterprises. They have crushed traffic to the volunteer project, starving it of donors and volunteers www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

The reason people started protesting about Israel committing genocide in Gaza early on is because Israeli leaders began openly declaring genocidal intent early on.

This🧵 debate with the member&representative of The Greens highlights current political climate here in Finland. And the greens here,who are pretty much right-wing when it comes to economy &economic system or environmental, nature&climate issues.Basic neolibs with a twist of so called social security
