"Ford’s government has become one of the most #authoritarian and #undemocratic on record. He’s taken control of school boards and conservation authorities, undermined regulatory agencies and passed laws forbidding critics from running ads critical of his government or uncovering past or future scandals....It’s extraordinary how much power this government has centralized into the hands of the premier and the cabinet.” https://breachmedia.ca/the-rise-and-potential-fall-of-doug-ford/

Sure, if all capitalist societies decided to ditch the shitty #NeoLIberal economic model. But seriously, can you see this happening anytime in the near to medium term, maybe even the long term? Short of global conflagration, the entrenched #RentierClass, the #Grifters and the #Thieves as well as the #PoliticalClass are hell-bent on keeping things as they are until they burn the planet to a crust.I agree though, we dearly need to get onto another economic system if we’re going to save our bacon. #MMT is an optional model. There might be others to consider as well.

The Ellison family and everyone associated with them are absolute trash.

Two MLAs who won't cooperate with their colleagues to make consensus govt work, an angry complainer, and a house speaker - four MLAs who contribute the least to good governance in #NWT are off to #Taiwan for a summer vacation at our expense. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/n-w-t-mlas-travel-to-taiwan-9.7307647

Don’t let #Grifters and those they’ve *bought* tell you that nationalisation is a *communist* threat. Of course they would say that, they have a lot at stake in #StateCapture. And the now more than 40yo #NeoLiberal (neo-classical) economy is predicated on deregulated markets (especially financial markets) and globalisation.
But *everything* in a *Social Democracy* is **Publicly owned** until it is bought or acquired by a private individual or a corporation. Hence, every private enterprise operates on the basis of an assumed social licence. That license can be revoked at any time.
Govt (public wealth) subsidies and bailouts ought to be offset by assets transfers to public ownership, anything else is weatlh transfers to the #Rich and #Wealthy of the #RentierClass exacerbating the #WealthEquity gap in society. How else can this gap be breached if not by #TaxingTheRIch or #Nationalisation of failing enterprises, especially where public infrastructure is concerned.

Next, they'll be telling us he supports Trump. How could we not have known! 🤣 -
Been a big evening of Grifters finding out, isn't it?
Such tiresome parasites, the lot of them.

Clearly Ukrainian agents stole the magic jar Laura Loomer keeps her heart in and that's why she's turned.
I hope they smash that jar when she outlives her use... -
"Trump and Infantino — those two were made for each other," a second host added. "Fascinated by power and themselves, too."
ZDF commentator Oliver Schmidt went further during the broadcast.
"And there is the U.S. President and his telephone joker on the right — his lackey, Gianni Infantino," Schmidt said.

In trying to undersand why the world is going to shit, we have discovered why the upper echelons of corporate management (and large institutional investors) are all in on #LLM-based #GenAISlop applications (#Enshitification personified). They’ve all succumbed to #AIPsychosis, assuredly a neurological condition with built-in #Denialism, with the only known cure being #Insolvency followed by #StockMarketCrash and global #EconomicCollapse.
In parallel, the question that is really bugging me is: why do #RightWing nut jobs keep banging their heads against a wall? Do they suffer from a similar type of neurological impairment? I originally thought they were all motivated to behave like they do because of particular unresolved character flaws that I conflatingly call ‘victimhood’. A self flagellation of the soul. A longing to be confirmed martyrs and pitied as such while raging at the world as the cause of their affliction — the circulatity is staggering. A condition recently appearing to be of epidemic proportion.
An article in #NewPolitics (Eddy Jokovich) has another explanation from the political perspective: A craving for limelight and a fundamental propensity to be lazy;
“…rather than developing policies for Australia’s actual economic, social and environmental challenges, the Australian right wants to import a prefab Trump–Farage–CPAC culture war that has never borne any electoral fruit in the past. So why do they keep doing it? Because it’s cheaper than developing the serious policy work, it’s far more angry than decent democratic debate, and it’s a lot easier than governing competently.” (NOTE: I have reservations about the claim of electoral ineffectiveness)

I prefer to think the old saying has it right: that making the same mistake over and over again without changing/learning anything is a positive maker for utter insanity.

"Typical concerns raised by residents wherever #AI #datacentres have been proposed include their impact on local #electricity rates, #water use, relentless noise at every hour of the day and night, hidden government subsidies, lack of environmental assessments, their impact on taxes, and the impact on the local economy." https://rabble.ca/politics/canadian-politics/danielle-smith-announces-new-power-plant-for-ai-data-centre/

This is so bloody obvious to anyone spending a little time thinking about critical social services. Which begs the question: ‘if the polies also know this, why has this been allowed to continue?’ And the usual govt response is:’It’s comlicated.’ Well, not it’s not. #StateCapture does not work for the whole of society and only serves to increase wealth transfer to the top end of town while lowering the quality of services until they’re no longer effective. The only complications are the self-interests of #Grifters hell bent on increasing their wealth at the cost of everyonw else. It’s high time this #Theft is stopped.
“The world is gradually recovering from the mania for privatisation and pseudo-competitive markets that dominated the neoliberal area. But we need a more coherent response than “fix on failure”. It’s time to accept that essential infrastructure is too important to be left to private monopolies and duopolies, regulated or otherwise.”

When I post anywhere about writing process these days, I get disingenuous comments from all these bots and grifters trying to sell me editing, book design, marketing and other (probably scam) publishing services. They should be banished to whatever rotten hole on the internet they crawled out of and sealed away till the end of time. (Just watch them comment on this post. I wouldn't put it past them).

Threads is the evil child of clickbait and recipe blogs… Notice how everyone HAS to give this little background story or preface, or best yet "disclaimer" before they get to the actual rage-bait or broadcasting their ignorance…
And that's EXACTLY where Instagram cuts off the preview of every Threads post.
And it is never ever ever good for your blood pressure or faith in humanity to click through.

De weerzinwekkende schaamteloosheid van Trump en z'n familie, plus iedereen met wie hij zich omringt.
"Het rapport, dat belangrijke overheidsmedewerkers verplicht zijn in te vullen om belangenverstrengeling te voorkomen, is vanwege Trumps vele zakelijke belangen 927 pagina's lang."
