It would be great if America’s pundits would pause this entire genre. “Burning down my house means I don’t need to take out the trash!” Your cleverness is not winning the day right now.

just a reminder that only water goes in your eyes, don’t wear contacts to a protest if you can help it, hot showers will hurt like hell if you have mace or gas residue on your skin. turn off face ID on your phone. pick a buddy & never leave their side. if detained, ask for a lawyer & then shut up.

Don’t sit this one out. The Regulatory Standards Bill is a direct threat to all of us.
It’s a gift to corporates. It favours privatisation & cuts to public services.
If there’s one thing you do this weekend, make a submission and get a mate to do one too.
Closes 1pm, Mon 23 June 2025.

There is already a nuclear-armed country in the Middle East that does not allow international inspectors despite having nukes for decades - and it’s not Iran.
Israel is also one of a handful of countries to have never signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.

A similar logic applies to taxing businesses on how much profit they make, not how they make it, when addressing environmental issues/externalities. There's $9k of activity behind the $1k of profit which delivers $200 of tax. $200 won't fix $9k of pollution; you need to tax the pollution directly.

You can never recoup lost tax revenue through economic growth. Why? Math.
Assume an economy with $100 in taxable income with a 20% tax rate. The government gets $20 in taxes.
Now assume a 10% tax cut. The government gets 18%. What will the government need to earn to get back to $20?

Santana will try and push through their fast tracked gold mine within a matter of weeks. So it’s important that as many people as possible are informed, understand some of the horrendous issues, and know what they can do about it.

This misleading crap just gets spilled out into the media with barely any challenge. The purpose of course is to convince us that cuts to public services and the sale of assets to rentiers are all very necessary indeed. TINA. Let's unpick these manipulative stats... [Geek Level Medium to High 🧵1/n]

Here’s the basis for why all hell would have broken loose on the ninth floor of the Beehive on Tuesday.
What was on press secretary
Michael Forbes’ phones?
Police seized two phones from Forbes, a senior government press secretary, who was accused of recording sex workers.

Those are not downstream from technologies in point of fact even though tech oligarchs desperately want us to believe they are. They know things can be rejected at the level of customs & norms—that’s why they lean SO hard on advertising to get buy in & fake narratives of inevitability early on.

Technologies, even widespread ones, do not *necessarily* determine social norms and goods. If you can’t stop a social harm on the level of force/physical coercion (technology) you can often stop it on the level of consensus (custom, norms, law, governance).

The lock & door technologies most people use—not all but vast majority—aren’t really protecting your home. What is protective is the social contract that says we don’t bust into each other’s homes & steal property just because it’s a simple, lucrative thing to do that’s usually easy to get away with
