Most people think capitalism is markets, trade, businesses, labour...
Whereas these predate capitalism by 1000s of years. Capitalism is the 1st economic system in human history that’s organised around constant expansion. And that’s what makes it so uniquely destructive.

The UK government is intensely relaxed about the ongoing imprisonment of Imran Khan by Pakistan, its military ally.
By contrast, the UK issued numerous media releases demanding the release of Alexei Navalny in Russia.

It was a pleasure to speak with the former leader of the British Labour Party, Jeremy Corbyn, at the founding conference of a new democratic socialist party and discuss climate change.

What a messed up economic system we live under. Lord O’Neill on @BBCr4today says we have to get rid of pensions triple lock and welfare in order to grow the economy. In other words, impoverish lots of people so that a small minority can continue to make a profit‼️

The EPA just greenlit pesticides laced with PFAS “forever chemicals” for use on kids’ fruits and veggies. Instead of protecting families, the Trump-run agency is letting chemical companies spray cancer-linked toxins on everything from lettuce to potatoes.

Big corporations like Exxon Mobil are literally begging the Supreme Court to bail them out. They’re claiming that being forced to publish their emissions data violates their precious 1st Amendment “free speech” rights.
