Its called Communism.
The solution isn't destroying all AIs and going back the way it was before (it's impossible). The only correct answer to that is a universal basic income + free healthcare + free mass transit + more free stuff provided by the government in general. Sadly the world isn't ready for that

#Delinking is the strategic fulcrum; (justice-centred) #degrowth is its indispensable ally.

Chuffed to have the ISEE special session presentation out on @degrowthinfo.bsky.social :) 🤓
"If we organise, if we delink, if we pair Northern degrowth with Southern sovereignty, we can redirect the planet’s abundant resources away from imperial accumulation and toward collective flourishing" writes Sara al Mahdi in our first blog post in our new series about #delinking.

Sorry but like when i look at climate scientists who have only spoken out now about the genocide or have not spoken out while they mouth off about climate non stop. I just wanna spit on them. Fuck each of you honestly.

Universal basic income is too serious a matter to leave to economists: "the research reveals that #ubi secures daily survival, improves performance of daily occupations, increases care and social engagement, and raises hope through opportunities to choose and plan for the future."

Most pleased to be seeing so much more intelligent discussion around Unconditional Universal Basic Income compared to years past.

Here's hoping for the tipping point that makes it happen for the world.
I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Universal Basic Income since 2013. Here's a collection of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments and studies of cash transfer programs around the world.

This will be a VERY LONG and ongoing thread focused entirely on empirical evidence. 🧵

Tony Blair’s catastrophic decision to invade Iraq cost thousands upon thousands of lives.

He shouldn’t be anywhere near the Middle East, let alone Gaza.

It is not up to Blair, Trump or Netanyahu to decide the future of Gaza. That is up to the people of Palestine.

Israel represents nothing more than genocide, scholasticide, politicide, memoricide. We can certainly add other “cides” to this list.

Honest question: if AI inevitably hits the job market like a tsunami that impacts all sectors and classes, would it be enough to finally mobilize the electorate to demand fully funded UBI and greater social safety nets across the line?

One can hope

Beneath all the propaganda, all the nice words about human rights and equality and international law, this is it. This is the material manifestation of Western values.

As Israel inflicts mass starvation on Gaza and now openly plans to carry out ethnic cleansing, the editorial board of the Financial Times has issued a statement saying that the US and Europe “should be ashamed of their silence” and must act to stop Israel’s crimes.

When the US ruling class says that something poses a threat to the "American way of life", what they actually mean is it poses a threat to the interests of US capital accumulation.

Palestinian babies are not spontaneously freezing to death. They are being deliberately subjected to conditions calculated to terminate life. In other words, they are being murdered. The cause of death is not the cold, but the genocide being perpetrated by Israel and the US.

Every week I get several emails from people asking "what should I do?". Everyone can contribute in different ways, but the basics are fairly straightforward: join a union, work toward the creation of a mass-based ecosocialist party, and develop anti-imperialist solidarities.
