  1. @Snoro UK Data centres: you had your rivers filled with shit and now I’ll take the life that depends on them? Centralised corruption and stupidity drives deregulation. The growth of fascist cults is financed by an Empire built on the nihilistic finality of Corporate Sovereignty. The micro thin repitition of a gilded image built on slop: tech delusions, LLM mimicry, unqualified control freaks, deadly decisions and the unrestrained abuse of human rights #Ecocide #DataCenters #AbnormalDistributions #ExtremePoverty #ExtremeWealth

  11. George Monbiot distills and quantifies what most have known for a long time now…

    ‘There is one political problem from which all others follow. It is the major cause of Donald #Trump of Nigel #farage of the shocking weakness of their opponents, of the polarisation tearing societies apart, of the devastation of the living world. It is simply stated: the extreme wealth of a small number of people.’

  12. #ElonMusk is already insanely rich and still wants more. Just imagine how much good could've been done with even half of that wealth compared to what he’s actually done. Anyone idolizing him should ask themselves that hard question. #ExtremeWealth #Inequality #BigTech #SocialImpact

  13. Feels like it should be an easy choice?

    Billionaire wealth is not an accident — it’s built on exploitation, colonial extraction, and climate destruction.

    Tax their wealth, dismantle their power, and put people and planet first.

  14. Good to see increasing use of the term #ExtremeWealth as sometimes you have to name a thing before you can tackle it. When I was growing up, extreme poverty was increasingly viewed as obscene and worthy of coordinated action. It’s (past) time to do the same thing at the other end of the spectrum.

  15. We might also need to deploy some psychoanalysis of what makes people unable to stop getting so much stuff that even they can't comprehend how much they have. If they weren't crazy during the initial phases of stuff-piling, they almost to the person are mentally disabled once they acquire too much stuff.
    "Interestingly, a recent survey found nearly two-thirds of millionaires from G20 countries think wealth poses a risk to society when someone has 1,000 times the societal median. Even the rich think there is a line."

  16. "When a super-rich elite is determining the outcome of elections purely to protect their vested interests and accelerate profits, it’s clear that we are in a terrifying age of wealth extremism"

  17. 😮 'In the last decade, the richest 1% of humanity captured over 50% of all new global wealth. The top ten wealthiest people in the world now own more than the poorest three billion combined, and the average billionaire’s carbon footprint is one million times that of the average person.' neweconomics.org/2025/01/explo #ExtremeWealth #EatTheRich

  22. Peru's Class Apartheid Wall

    youtube.com/watch?v=iwWKkWCohe.

    Peruvian courts have ordered the demolition of a wall in Lima that separates the rich and mostly white districts from working class indigenous ones.

    It's been one of the most powerful symbols of the class and racial apartheid in Latin America ever since it was first built in the 80s, at the height of the mass migration to the cities and armed struggle led by Shining Path. Though the wall is being torn down, neoliberalism and the severe poverty on the outskirts of Lima remain.

  31. #Irish #workers #pay fell 3.9% behind inflation last year, equivalent to a €2,107 pay cut or working 8.3 days for free.

    #Oxfam said there is an urgent need for#Ireland to discuss taxing #ExtremeWealth to balance #executive pay and #workers pay.
