@davidho.bsky.social In case anyone was in doubt about how sociopathic Wall Street bankers are.

Global warming is happening, they say, so invest now in air conditioning stocks!

"The big banks’ acknowledgment that the world is likely to fail at preventing warming of more than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels is spelled out in obscure reports for clients, investors and trade association members. Most were published after the reelection of President Donald Trump, who is seeking to repeal federal policies that support clean energy while turbocharging the production of oil, gas and coal — the main sources of global warming.
…
"Morgan Stanley’s climate forecast was tucked into a mundane research report on the future of air conditioning stocks, which it provided to clients on March 17. A 3 degree warming scenario, the analysts determined, could more than double the growth rate of the $235 billion cooling market every year, from 3 percent to 7 percent until 2030."

We all told you so about trump twice. The democrats decided it was more important to stop Bernie sanders than actually beat trump. The same thing happened with Claudia de la cruz & karina Garcia. Liberalism is about supporting fascism over anything remotely socialist or communist. #aoc #Bernie&aoc #BernieSanders support #genocidejoe #KopmalaHarris just #neoliberal sellout garbage. He could have been our #lenin but he just had to endorse Biden Harris Gross

The challange is to stop the spread of this toxicity before it gains more purchase and crushes lives.

New #fascism is thriving as a result of discontent with the #neoliberal order. Time for a better model that learns from past failures. I’m troubled by the absence of a countervailing narrative that plants a flag in defense of all that is good in democracy,

3/3

Und es werden analog zum Anstieg der Prävalenz immer mehr unentgeltliche! #pflegendeAngehörige rekrutiert. So ist das System und es scheint immer noch zu funktionieren. Irgendwie.

Wenn diese #neoliberal|e #Pflegepolitik (wenn hier überhaupt von »Politik« die Rede sein kann) so weitergeht, ist bald niemand mehr da, um die Arbeit zu erledigen. (Na gut, der Omnibus kann auch autonom fahren, wenn der Busfahrer für seine alte Mutter sorgen und sie #pflegen muss.)

@larsweisbrod Frag mal #INSM. Die sind doch auch so #neoliberal wie die olivgrüne #VollkornCDU.

2/2 #Harris and the #Democrats were never going to fix this. At best, they would have slowed #Americas decline. Why? Because #neoliberal #capitalism eats itself. #Liberals are Neoliberals. It is a right-wing position, just a kinder, gentler capitalist philosophy (lol). And that’s why they would never fix what needs fixed. That’s why, even when the Dems were in power, they did very little to correct an unsustainable direction. America hasn’t had a real #leftwing movement since #FDR. The malaise of the #1970s should have been an indicator things weren’t working. Instead, the #US kicked the can down the road with #Reagan, and then #Clinton.

Ouaip! Toute à leur réflexion sur la question "comment survivre, en tant que #consommateur occidental, dans un contexte de #capitalisme #néolibéral #numérique en roue libre en train de nous écraser?", l'ensemble du plateau a complètement zappé les centaines de millions de mains employées dans l'automatisation des #IA. Soit ils ignoraient tous l'existence de cette masse d'esclaves modernes, soit ils s'en foutaient, mais alors, dans les deux cas, ils n'auraient pas dû faire cette émission.

@MediaActivist This time around, I actually DID vote for #KamalaHarris, and even donated hundreds of dollars to her campaign, in a last-ditch attempt to stop #SprayTanHitler, #CommanderVance, and #FelonMuskrat. Nevertheless, I recognize the truth of what you say — that past uncritical support for #neoliberal careerist #JackassParty candidates like her has paved the way for fascism. And in the past, under other, less exigent circumstances, I've repeatedly voted for (and contributed to) #BernieSanders in the primaries, and multiple #GreenParty candidates in the general elections.

The #JackassParty has KILLED HOPE by refusing to halt the bloodsucking of the economy by the billionaire class and by corporations — even in Obama's first term, when they had a filibuster-proof supermajority in the Senate. If fascism is to be stopped, economic radicalism is not a luxury, but a necessity.

"In April 2022, the Special Committee on Reforming the Police Act released its report. Among its 11 recommendations were replacing the RCMP with a provincial police force, adopting a new approach to mental health calls and giving First Nations self-determination over policing in their communities.

The goal was to modernize the Police Act and bring it in line with the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act."

Not only did they not do anything at all on overdue & necessary #PoliceReform but the Horgan/Eby #BCNDP has spent more funds on sending cops to silence #citizens #dissent & arrest/kidnap/illegally detain Indigenous land defenders/water protectors on their own unceded lands, than any other BC government prior.

Let's not forget that #BCRCMP #CIRG unit was created in 2017, under Horganized #CrimesAgainstHumanity regime, as #CorporateMercenaries to protect ecocidal industry capital. The bill for CIRG services should be paid by the private ecocide industry they're protecting - not be put on backs of #BCTaxpayers. CIRG doesn’t protect citizens at all. It should be #abolished but this current #neoliberal greedy government isn't going to follow the moral & ethical route to do that.

It's sad that in some #anarchist literature they have used a variant calling it #LibertarianSocialism which I would have been fine with but that 'L' word is being tainted by modern, #neoliberal, let-the- market-do-anything-they-want-to-us types called Libertarians.
