@nixCraft@mastodon.social #TechBros are outperforming #FossilFuels in cornering energy markets, just from the #DataCenters front alone. When SHTF, control as much vital root infrastructure, as possible. #Capitalism #greed at its *finest*.

It's not in Western interest to limit Israel in any way. Alana Lentin: 'Thus, the almost total impunity granted Israel as it has exacted death and destruction on the people of Palestine and sown murderous chaos around the region since its founding can also be understood in terms of the function it serves for the West. Israel’s recent June 12 attack on Iran exposes this in no uncertain terms. Germany, erroneously thought by a majority of observers to be driven in its rabid support for the Zionist colony by guilt for its genocide of the Jews of Europe, made its desires clear. Commending the strikes, German Chancellor Merz said, “This is the dirty work Israel is doing for all of us.”' https://mondoweiss.net/2025/07/against-jewish-safety/ @palestine@lemmy.ml @palestine@fedibird.com#Israel #antisemitism #fascism #racism #CedricRobinson #AntiRacism #TheWest #capitalism #RacialRegime

As Jason Hickel argues:

'the tendency to equate capitalism with "markets and trade" naturalizes a system that is not natural, and prevents us from having a clear-eyed view of how it operates & how we might want to do things differently'...

he then offers a vg three part definition of capitalism:

  1. Capitalism is built on enclosure & the construction of scarcity;

  2. it requires perpetual expansion (growth);

  3. economics decisions cannot be democratic.

Media, and most people around the world have forgotten about Albania and their never ending protests against oligarchs and Epstein class zionist trying to destroy their country. Almost 100 nights of protests with 100s of thousands protesting every night hasn't gotten the publicity they deserve. Albania needs our help to spread their message and ask for support of their fight against corruption at home and the global disaster capitalism. #Albania #Protests #Kushner #Corruption #Europe #NotForSale #Environment #Economy #Capitalism

RE: https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic/117313716231482340 Like Stoller I too feel strange pangs of hope - certainly helps having several different convos today hearing ppl from unemployed person to management being fed up to the point of genuine anger over AI, war for profit, surveillance capitalism, lack of environmental responsibilitiy & action... basically all the shit foisted on us by the oligarchy. Not torches & pitchforks yet, but it's getting less improbable every day 🤞 #oligarchy #capitalism #resist

Well, *fuck*. California AG Bonta just surrendered to the Trump-aligned Ellison billionaires who want to take over and destroy Warners, merging it with the chudded out husk they've made of Paramount, leaving these two useless assholes to control Warners, Paramount and Tiktok: https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/paramount-settles-with-california-other-states-clearing-major-hurdle-warner-bros-2026-09-21/ - If you'd like an essay-formatted version of this thread to read or share, here's a link to it on pluralistic.net, my surveillance-free, ad-free, tracker-free blog: https://pluralistic.net/2026/09/22/happy-chudmas/#baloney-in-our-slacks 1/
