@gusseting
I kind of agree with you, about the controling aspects of the #FossilFuelLobby. On the other hand, if not for fossil fuel, there would be other lobbies seeking #StateCapture. It is in the #moneyedClass interest to excert as much influence as money can buy after all. Remember the Tabacco Lobbies of yore? Same thing. Today we can also point to the #GamblingIndustry and increasingly #DefenceIndustries.Unfortunately, with power comes #Greed and #Corruption and #TheRich like it that way. All we can do is stay one step behind our #Leaders ensuring we don’t fall too far back. And the only way to do that is through the ballot box, consistent activism and community-led campaigns (including petitions, protest sit-ins/marches and boycotts, etc.).
I’m hopeful that consistent messaging by communities eventually cuts through to polies and that our govt (of whatever ilk) will eventually push back against #Zionism and its growing influence in everyday Australian social life because it is so egregious atm.
Also more peeps ought to have a good long think about it all and take a moral and ethical stand vis a vis #Gaza, #WestBank #Lebanon, etc. not much help if peeps keep watching #FoxFakeNews and similar #Cronies IMO.
In the grand scheme of things, we need to break up #Oligarchies , #Oligopolies and get serious about progressive #TaxReform.

@freakonometrics
L’hebdomadaire britannique libéral 'The Economist', que l’on peut difficilement soupçonner de gauchisme, estime que l’essor de la #fortune héritée en #Europe comme aux #ÉtatsUnis « a des conséquences économiques et sociales alarmantes, car il met en péril non seulement l’idéal méritocratique, mais le #capitalisme lui-même ».(NDLR, Une route pavée d'or pour les #oligarchies (et autre #broligarchie à l'américaine) et l'#illibéralisme !)

CW: USPOL EUPOL TRUMP Dictator Greenland Vance
JD #Vance
#Denmark, which controls Greenland, is not doing its job, it is not a good ally. If that means we need to take more territorial interests in Greenland, then President Trump will do it. He does not care what the Europeans are screaming at us (!), - US Vice President J.D. VanceSo #USA will annex #Greenland using its military.
#trump = #Putin#Americans, you are dragged in into the #dictatorship
#europe has to unite against both #Oligarchies

Trump is testing waters on Ukraine to see how far he can go elsewhere
A ‘win’ in #Ukraine may lead Trump to act in #Gaza, #Canada or #Greenland
Globally #Trump’s focus is cooperating with world’s leading #autocracies & #oligarchies to get #US get richer at the expense of just about everyone else.
In part, this is because the Trump administration is testing the waters to see just how far and how rapidly it can go.

There should be more talk about the unfitness of the GOPs nominee for #President. A consummate liar who would welcome #oligarchies and create a crime syndicate benefiting only those who toe the line. P.S. He's also #OLD

@00Aaron There is truly a big difference between market and capitalism. And also huge difference between pro-market and pro-business agendas.
The enmeshing of all of these separate vectors together is the root of the confusion.
A market economy can be a less-damaging theater for people with a Nietzschean will to power to pursue their edge than politics. But that all falls apart if they’re allowed to become oligarchs.
And what we have, recently also in the west, are #oligarchies.

Under our so called #Democracy #DougFord is close to an absolute ruler for 4 years. In reality there are no democracies. They are all #Oligarchies or worse. I think he is laughing while he is sticking it to us and his rich cronies will make sure he and his family will be well taken care of after he leaves politics. Like most politicians. Why is Brian Malrunnée not behind bars. By the way - another #Con!

@chu There never were countries that are democracies. It was always #Oligarchies, #Always! Except that this #Oligarchy is stupid and greedy beyond the pale - and we all pay the price. #Ideology kills - whether it is religious or driven by greed.

#Einstein wasn't just brilliant in physics. He also understood the market dynamics of #capitalism and #oligarchies. The full text is contained in the image content.
I believe we've reached the time he foresaw.

@peterrsjensen
I agree and I would like to add that the all the present and past #Democracies are and have been #Oligarchies. -
Absolutely. There are no #Democracies! There are only #Oligarchies! There have ever only been #Oligarchies. The present #Oligarchy will put us back in the #StoneAge.

CW: Obsessive liars, corruption, George Santos, Trump, career criminals
@AdreanaInLB Haha, funny how those homelandless cons claiming to be anti-elitarian & anti-globalists turn out to be cozying up to richest tycoons anywhere in dictatorships around the world to line their pockets easier than in their home countries.

These clowns are trying to manifest #NealStephenson’s #TerminationShock…
How many more of Stephenson’s dystopias are there left for idiot tech bros to implement? One: #TheDiamondAge.
We’re 80% there with: #Oligarchies, #wealthcliques #SurveillanceStates, #mediaglyphs/emoji, permanent #underclasses, etc. TBD: #MatterCompilers.
