  • Cost of living is up. Paychecks are not. And workers are not OK.

  • True lol reminds me of this.

    In this brief post, I hope to clear the ground by proposing two simple rules to which neo-liberalism can be reduced. They are:

    Rule #1: Because markets.

    Rule #2: Go die!

    Summarizing, the rules do not apply in the following two contexts:

    Invariant #1: The rules of neoliberalism do not apply to those who write the rules.

    Invariant #2: The rules of neoliberalism do not apply in the world of the 0.01%.

    Both have impunity[2]. These asymmetries will become more interesting shortly.

  • It's unfair to tax the rich

    Jump

  • Ah damn, I must have done a lib faux pas. Of course, the rich minority. Excuse me. That's why the USA is the most left wing country in the world- rule by the opulent minority, against the tyranny of the mob.

    Hey I just remembered that serial killers are also a minority!

    Europe Prepares for a Nightmare Scenario: The U.S. Blocking Access to Tech

    Jump

  • The deal was "sign this free trade agreement that includes our intellectual property laws and we will give you free access to the US market" but now the US has imposed tariffs on EU goods so there's really no reason to continue honoring US IP laws.

  • The kind of bumper sticker I support

    Jump

  • Yea, and making a car is done in the most wasteful and inefficient (i.e. most profitable for certain people) way by like, shipping the components for the steering wheel to Guatemala, having them put the airbag in there and then shipping the assembled steering wheel to Mexico to have it be put on the steering column, then shipped to wherever the car is finally assembled, then shipped to where it is sold.

  • ‘Repatriate the gold’: German economists advise withdrawal from US vaults

    Jump

  • One way of looking at it is that we literally cannot afford war. I mean moneywise. Nixon removed the dollar from the gold standard in order to finance the Vietnam war, which the US lost in the military sense but won in the sense of the military industry making a whole lot of money. Literally more money than was even possible.

  • Israel can probably make you one of those.

  • RIPower. I can see how his shift would be over right about now.

  • Ok this trend is getting cooler now...

  • ‘Repatriate the gold’: German economists advise withdrawal from US vaults

    Jump

  • Good idea, but might have to come in like France did in 1971 (they rolled up to NY harbor in a destroyer). For some reason I don't think it'll work like it worked for de Gaulle.

  • What's your favourite historical photo and why?

    Jump

  • Indeed! Castro famously opted for a moral vest over kevlar when visiting the US.

  • Grok claims the Twitter algorithm limits visibility for anti-Israel accounts

  • Makes sense, X always boosts racists.

    Anti-genocide = anti-racist

    Pro-Israel = racist

    New York Nurses’ Strike Enters Second Week, With No End in Sight

    Jump

  • Mount Sinai CEO Brendan Carr said in a notice to staff on Monday that the hospital “extended our plans to run the Health System without the support of the nurses NYSNA leadership has convinced to strike.”

    What a worm- implying striking nurses aren't smart enough to know what they want and dumb enough to get duped into acting contrary to their interests by the big bad (democratically-elected) union leaders.

  • Natural gas prices soar more than 60% as winter storm approaches

    Jump

  • No no, it is:

    Increased electricity demand has already been on the rise because of the expansion of artificial intelligence data centers in the U.S., which consume large quantities of energy and have affected residential energy bills.

    The storm seems like pretense though bc the article says bills will go up for 6 months to a year even if the cold snap is just for a week, so it seems like people are being primed to pay higher prices this fall for a cold snap in January, when the real reason for constantly rising costs is AI data centers.

  • I really hope the US holds a referendum. Greenlanders tell it like it is.
