A MUST-READ‼️ Amazon is a technofeudal rentier owning the digital infrastructure on which privateers, states and societies depend. Thankfully, there are signs of a pushback. The campaign that brings workers and citizens together every Black Friday – Make Amazon Pay – recognises this transformation.🔥

My family came here 50 years ago. They've worked, paid taxes, raised families, been good citizens.
My many colleagues and friends who were either born elsewhere, or their parents were, the same.
It's so offensive to be told you're here on sufferance.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.
