La falta de educación financiera no entiende de estratos sociales, ni de género, ni de la potencia económica de los países.
Otra pandemia global: el analfabetismo financiero
La educación financiera es tan esencial como las matemáticas o la educación cívica. No se trata de formar contables, sino ciudadanos informados y capaces a la hora de tomar decisiones financieras.

The working class is much less desperate than in the past. Have billionaires moved the Overton window in the UK, France, Germany, Scandinavia, Italy, Hungary, India, Brazil, Argentina all at once? Or maybe there’s a more structural explanation, something that affected everyone at the same time
It's rooted in billionaires paying media, politicians and think tanks to move the Overton Window, and capitalizing on the desperation of the working class.

“Why have countries that have moved an ever-growing share of social interactions into a frictionless online space, where political claims are validated or invalidated by popularity alone, seen a commensurate rise in extreme political factions driven by emotional catharsis and decoupled from reality”

ER exit sites are dynamic ER subdomains that integrate signals, reshape membranes and steer secretion. Twelve groups in the field came together to map their diversity, regulation, unanswered questions and future directions.

Towards a unified framework for the function of endoplasmic reticulum exit sites - Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology
Endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES) are specialized ER subdomains that regulate the export of secreted cargo. This Roadmap explores how ERES integrate biochemical and mechanical signals to coordinate trafficking and proposes a multidisciplinary strategy to investigate their function, including in disease.

in Greenland, the government owns a bunch of businesses--a fishing company that is the largest single employer, a shipping company, a ferry company, several retail and logistics companies, etc, and it all works pretty well?? I traveled there to investigate: prospect.org/world/2025-0...

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

inequality went down 2020-24, cost of living went down over the same period, the increase in nonwhite Americans is a long trend that barely budged in that period.

the thing that changed, a lot, is the media and information environment, which became dramatically more fascist
Would you be willing to concede that Americans are embracing fascism for the below reasons?

1. Economic inequality + high cost of living

2. Increase in number of non white Americans via immigration

3. Algorithmic based social media pushing Americans towards hate

It can be all of the above.

The replies to this tweet were recommended to me when I opened the app. The people making these replies are making hundreds or thousands of dollars off them - they're monetized and look how much engagement they're getting. It's become a fullbore funding mechanism for white supremacy.

One of the largest websites on earth, the biggest hub for political and journalistic communication, its owner has transformed into the largest global outlet for violent white supremacy and antisemitism to exist in human history.. and all those politicians and journalists just don’t talk about it.
Weird how there are multiple news stories about how Bluesky is kind of rude to centrists and almost no news stories about how Twitter is now so racist it would make a Klan rally blush.
