   …we can’t address climate breakdown because we have the wrong incentives.

   Caring more about something we’ve made up (money) than what we’re made of will go down in history as the biggest collective mind fk in history.

   In parallel to antibiotics that once worked becoming redundant (also in the news this morning), the worth of the vast pools of capital ‘looking for a return’ will evaporate https://mastodon.social/@urlyman/112042715978488637

   If Kamala Harris taps Tim Walz for VP & they win, then Peggy Flanagan becomes Minnesota's Governor, & would be the first female Native American governor in US history.

   In US HISTORY!

   In 248 years we've never had a female Native American Gov. This can be a critical step forward.

   "You do you" is Eu-gen-ics. (beadsland@disabled.social)'s status on Monday, 08-Jul-2024 14:06:09 JST "You do you" is Eu-gen-ics.

   Struck by Jane McAlevey quote from 2021:

   "Winning a new New Deal will require the same level of power to create a real crisis for the elite in 2021 and 2022—just as workers did from 1933 to 1935."

   Profoundly disingenuous reading of history.

   In the prior five years, unemployment had gone from 3% to 25%. The Harlan County War had been 1931; the Anti-Injunction Law passed in 1932*; yet union membership was at a nadir.

   * The result of what McAlevey calls "advocacy"—rather than "organizing".

   That richesse rested *entirely* on the kidnapping of black peoples from Africa & the theft of their labor via slavery, an institution maintained by the governments of white colonizers. Haiti's Revolution was the largest revolt of enslaved peoples in history.

   In response, the Revolutionary government of France abolished slavery. When Napoleon took over & declared himself "First Consul"/emperor he reinstated slavery specifically to try to force the citizens of Haiti to pay France's/his debts.

   Very welcome.

   There were more likewise discussions.

   #XMPP looked like the most secure one, however it seems to be a more "nerd"-adopted tool, even though with an interesting history.

   In another thread, there was one post by #French librarians who seem.to have done a structured research project on this with several unheard of tools as well.

   Please don’t waste my time. You vote for the lessor of evils who can win.

   As long as everyone is ethical enough to vote for the lesser evil collectively then of course they can win. After all the main 2 parties have switched hands 8 times in USA history.

   In fact the only way people could possibly vote for the lesser of evils and not win is if the majority of people vote for the greater of evils.
