My favourite #YanisVaroufakis' "translations" of the #Palantir manifesto are these two. They show how fundamentally aligned #PeterThiel and #ElonMusk are, based on a shared #whitesupremacist #fascist #plutocratic vision of society.

#democracy? not a bit of it, just #plutocratic #totalitarianism

#Trump is an anti-#homeless, anti-#poor, #antisemetic, gerontocratic, #homophobic, #islamophobic, #plutocratic, pro-#genocide, #racist, #sexist, #transphobic, #warmongering #bigot who wouldn't be president except for closed #voting locations and rolled back absentee and #earlyvoting that caused the highest #American turnout ever in 2020.
The capitulation by #corporations, #mainstreammedia and the #wealthy has me more #woke (the real term about #injustice not made up #MAGA junk) than ever.

Americans Didn’t Vote for What Donald Trump Is About to Give Them
For 40 years, Republicans have mixed populist rhetoric with #plutocratic policies. Maybe this time, Americans will finally get wise to the #con
by Jay Michaelson, November 11, 2024
"I don’t think any Democrat could’ve won this election. Maybe, if there were a #BernieSanders-like outsider figure, different enough from Joe Biden and Harris to not seem like a continuation of them, and possessed of Trump-like abilities to tune into the grievances and alienation of working-class people, that person could have won. (Biden himself, before his cognitive decline, had those qualities; he was known as Scranton Joe, after all.) But even then, that candidate would have to buck a global trend. I doubt anyone could do that."

@selzero 'Voting with your wallet' means one dollar/pound/euro/yen/denarius = one vote.
It's about as blatantly #plutocratic as you can be.

Postscript
I said earlier that the information landscape has changed. At one level, it has. At another very important level, this change has primarily been in the experience of many of us in (so-called) western liberal democracies, who previously enjoyed the #privilege of feeling less routinely lied. Citizens of the majority world have for decades/lifetimes experienced a similar pattern of shamelessly manipulative falsehoods and consequence-free empty promises from leaders in the #ImperialCore.
Once citizens in these colonising and settler-colonial wealthy nations realise that, then the potential for genuine #solidarity across national, colonial and generational boundaries begins to open. And that solidarity represents the only genuine threat to the #plutocratic divide-and-conquer agenda that is as old as time and which is currently hurtling us collectively towards an uninhabitable Earth.
Solidarity or hell-on-Earth: these are only two paths currently available. Indeed, given the enormous success of this #InformationWarfare over recent decades, this is reduced to one choice: solidarity amidst our unfolding hell-on-Earth or collapse, mass death and the extinction of the last shreds of human dignity, kindness and joy. Let us each choose wisely.

...went to the polls. They seem to be so well integrated in #German society (or carefree or otherwise) that they do not care about their ancestral country anymore.(1)
On the other hand, there is a more sinister and more worrying reason than failed #German integration policy for migrant workers of the #Wirtschaftswunder era and their progeny:

I found out today that yesterday was the last ever A’s game I will attend because they’re officially going to #vegas.
Utterly disgraceful — from #MLB brass down to Fisher and his goon Kaval. We all saw this coming from a mile away anyhow — #RootedInOakland was such bullshit. And yet I am still sad and angry.
The Coliseum was not pretty but it had personality. The tickets were #affordable and it has divey character. It had #publictransit to get fans there without a car. More diversity than I've seen at most other ballparks.
Farewell to the last dive bar in the MLB.
Baseball should be #democratic not #plutocratic. #Athletics #baseball #lovethecoliseum

CW: Against neoliberalism
There is only so far that wealth #inequality can expand before it becomes clear that there is a greater risk of #tyranny from the wealthy than there ever was from the #elected #government. I can fire my government every couple of years, but #billionaires are harder to get rid of. At least early modern aristocracy had expectations about their moral conduct. #Neoliberalism is cancer and a #fallacy. It is #plutocratic tyranny.
