Max Gustafsson. Briljant som vanligt.

I needed to read this today. Thought someone else might need it too.

Nu undrar säkert SVT/SR vad de egentligen vunnit på att springa och kratta manegen för nyfascismen genom att lyda i förväg, fjäska för SD och both-sidesa allting. Ingenting. Ingenting har de vunnit. Men vi har alla förlorat.

Säger ju det, jävla hjälte.

The Great Wall of China may not be visible from space but Almería's greenhouses certainly are. An essential piece in European supermarket supply chains, migrant workers toil in their heat to keep our tomatoes cheap. Illegal wages and slums without electricity, running water or sanitation.

In the United States, data is under attack, workers are under attack, and scientific funding is under attack. On March 7th, we stood up for science. www.fridaysforfuturenewsletter.org/post/science...

Fortsätter envist att sprida den här artikeln. Den sammanfattar det som utvecklingen pekar mot de senaste 50 åren. I will stubbornly keep sharing this. Perfectly summarises where things have been heading for the last 50 years www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

Kapitalet höjer hyrorna staten sänker bostadsbidragen

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

"Trump states outright that he’s not interested in free trade and doesn’t care about the impact his tariffs have on markets. What he wants is control: control over supply chains, control over capital flows, control over the behaviour of rival states." graceblakeley.substack.com/p/trumps-tar...

1. I've been banging on about the existential crisis facing our food system for years. But don't take it from me. Take it from the food professionals now risking their careers in an urgent and devastating warning to their own industry. Key quotes from their memo in 🧵 drive.google.com/file/d/1tATF...

Det låter som handlingen i en ganska kass bok som alla skulle avfärda som orealistiskt. 

Super mem

”Det här är inte ett önskvärt beslut, men det är ett nödvändigt beslut” säger Acko Ankarberg (KD) om att medicinen blir dyrare för dem med störst behov. Staten sparar 2,7 miljarder v full effekt. Ta bort tak i jobbskatteavdraget för höginkomsttagare kostar 4.7 mdr. Sänkt kapitalskatt i ISK 7 mdr 🤷🏻‍♂️

More than half of all fossil fuel carbon emissions came from just 36 companies in 2023. Major fossil fuel companies, including Saudi Aramco, Coal India, ExxonMobil and Shell produced more than 20 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in 2023. earth.org/36-fossil-fu...

Almost Famous: Unpaid Labour = Theft On January 27th, over 110 employees at restaurant chain Almost Famous (Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool) were made redundant... SF Hospitality Workers’ Union – [email protected] Manchester Solidarity Federation – mcrsolfed@gmailcom solfed.org.uk/solfed/almos...

Jag kommenterar senaste händelserna i Kristerssons regering. Man kan säga att det följer ett mönster av vad som händer vid nepotismstyre. Ni får gärna läsa! arbetet.se/2025/03/10/m...

If Europe is so keen to ‘save the world from kleptocracy and fascism’ then why are they funding Putin’s war effort? Investing in renewables to reduce dependence on kleptocrats and fascists would be more effective, create more jobs, and help deal with the biggest threat humanity actually faces.

Det är verkligen hög tid att bygga på alternativ till Facebooks eventfunktion. Ett försök i den riktningen är Organisera, som drivs av kamratdataföreningen Konstellationen. Ännu i startgroparna, men här kan man t.ex. hitta kommande evenemang i Stockholm: organisera.org/search?conte...

These folks have never *ever* believed in freedom of speech, or freedom of any kind but the freedom to amass levels of wealth that are cataclysmic to organized society. Cancel your subscription and make a donation to kick-ass independent journalism of your choice.

We will be out picketing again this Thursday (DM for more details). We will continue to support workers thrown to the scrap heap by the owners of Almost Famous. Staff were made redundant 3 weeks ago with zero notice- they are yet to receive a penny of thousands they are owed.

Elon Musk denounced after X agrees to Turkey's censorship requests - https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/musk-x-turkey-censorship-requests-block-accounts

Musk speaking to the far right German party, the AfD, today. Best picture angle, ever! 😂

Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵 In the first cross-national comparative study, we examine 32M tweets from politicians. We find that misinformation is not a general condition: it is driven by populist radical right parties. with @julianachueri.bsky.social doi.org/10.1177/1940...

1. Please read this thread. It could make a difference to your health. Before I went away, I had a strange, persistent tingling in the soles of my feet. When I looked it up, there were some benign explanations, and some alarming ones. I resolved to see the doctor when I returned. 🧵

It was inevitable, but it’s still good to be aware that this is happening here, now. If you see suspicious account/comment, remember: Don’t engage. Don’t argue. Don’t clap back. Don’t screenshot and share. Just block and move on. today.rtl.lu/news/busines...

Med Musk & Trump kommer klasskampen uppifrån att bli brutalare. Facklig organisering har varit och är en viktig del av demokratins infrastruktur. Uppmaningen till arbetare i alla länder att organisera och förena sig är viktigare än någonsin. Läs @arbetet.bsky.social 👇🏼 arbetet.se/2025/01/09/u...

Fact-checking is not censorship. Requesting evidence is not censorship. Refuting falsehoods is not censorship. Stopping a lie from travelling halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on is not censorship. But Zuckerberg's grovelling to Trump will sure as hell lead to censorship.

Elon Musk’s fascist turn isn’t puzzling at all. It’s all about labour 🧵

Some interesting words about Universal Basic Income. The quote comes from the book: Bulllshit Jobs.

Never, EVER accept the lie that this is somehow a 'forest', just because there are trees: it's not. A real forest is 1,000s of diverse species, all intricately connected. By contrast, what you're looking at here is one face of the death of nature, covering around 10% of Ireland.
