No, Keir, globalisation has not failed.

It’s delivered previously unimaginable wealth and living standards.

Problem is too much of that wealth has ended up in hands of too few. And you’re leaning into that by offering to reduce Digital Services Tax, which will benefit tech bros and no one else.

✨So I've been actively pitching this idea around. People seem to love it, but the podcast market is tough right now. If you/anyone you know might be interested, I have a full pitch I can send you. DMs are open. Or hmu at markyarm@gmail.com. (Please reskeet.)
Just had an idea for a podcast where I interview fact checkers. I don't know if enough exist anymore though.

The biggest inaccuracy movies taught us is that villains are cool. Not talking about the moral aspects, just that they would look and act stylishly. Real world evil is so frequently dorky, schlubby and banal.
