#ecosocialism #MMT #Degrowth No surrender to neoliberal globalism The choice is ecosocialism or barbarism, sufficiency for all or market fascism
There has got to be another way forward for humanity than desecrating the natural world and destroying our life support system We have got to end capitalism, end Greenwash for corporate profit We must value nature and people intrinsically, to get off the road to extinction
#LizKendall wants you to work until you’re 72. I’m not sure people are grasping the enormity of this. She doesn’t want you to get your full pension (the lowest in the West) until you’ve reached 72 years old. Wake up people. FFS.
The idea of 'neoliberalism' was hatched by Austrian bankers and economists in the early 1920s, in the ashes of the Habsburg Empire. Their movement was heavily funded by American foundations in the 20s and 30s. Early followers met in Paris in 1938, at the Walter Lippmann…
icymi: consistent accounting identifies agriculture as the leading cause of global warming due to CO2 from past and present deforestation and from methane
BREAKING: scientists confirm industrial animal agriculture is driving force behind extinction catastrophe 🧵
Male life expectancy in Glasgow is also 73, meaning if the pension age were to rise to 74 that the average Glaswegian man wouldn't even claim a state pension. There's massive class injustices in these proposals, including the forms of work we'd be asking folk to do in their 70s.

I'm calling on the UK Government to stop the proposed changes to Biodiversity Net Gain, which put nature recovery at risk just as the system starts to work. Nature needs time to thrive, not more setbacks. action.rspb.org.uk/page/174378/ac…
The main problem with neoliberal ideology, is its invisibility, hence the title of George Monbiot and Peter Hutchinson's book and film about it, being called the Invisible Doctrine. George sums it up in the short trailer. youtu.be/E5TWEWZKNDs 2/
I woke up with a very clear view of the massive problem we face. A virtual neoliberal dictatorship, has been imposed on our societies, because all the main parties have secretly been taken over by neoliberalism. Yet, most of the public, has no idea what neoliberalism is. 1/
I want to expand this, as it seems a lot are not getting what I'm saying and why. The vast majority of the public, have no idea what neoliberalism is, or that the mainstream parties they vote for, all adhere to neoliberal ideology, as they don't declare it, and deny it. 1/🧵

BREAKING: deforestation for cattle farming causing an extraordinary 62% more damage to biodiversity than previously estimated. Horrific. Change this Extinction Economy now while it's still too late.

For months MDs dismissed her pain as constipation, then found she had a perforated bowel and stage 4 colon cancer at 27. ‘We don’t know what’s driving this. It never used to happen in this age group, now a very significant rise in 20, 30 & 40 year olds are getting colon cancer.’

While Trump throws everything he can to distract from the Epstein scandal, the focus on this neo-fascist kakistocracy by every mainstream media outlet (except Fox) distracts us from the ongoing collapse of civilization and sixth great extinction. Sad for every living thing.
Gove and his mates magicked £800bn out of thin air for Covid. Then promptly stole most of it.
