It's official! I'm *permanently* banned from X for tweeting "TLDR: Fascism." (appeal denied) What an honor—and a sign that the Silicon Valley billionaires feel threatened by my book. (One of my final viral posts featured this cover.) Pre-order here! www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Ne...

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X. I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!). So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

“We can’t last 34 more months of what we’ve had happen over the last 14. He’s only going to get worse. He started a war that could tank the global economy without any end in sight and without any plan. We can’t survive this”

We can't fall into right-wing populism’s lie that the most vulnerable in society are to blame for wealth inequality in our countries. We need to build movements that tell the truth: the story of wealth inequality is not a cultural one, but a class one.

@gruber.foo Hi John, re. your latest article on OpenDyslectic and that “they’re just ugly fonts”: Not true, my wife reacted with shock and amazement when she realized she could read without struggle, now using it on all her devices. She feels ‘over’ her handicap, so there’s more to this story.

The Trump administration and Department of Energy policies have already cost Americans 91,000 clean energy jobs and counting. They are actively killing jobs in rural places and small towns across this country, and they have no plan to replace them.

The members of the UK Basic Income Movement welcome the public commitment of the new Living Standards Coalition to ensure that every person in the UK can afford a decent standard of living. We are calling on the Coalition to engage with the persuasive body of discussion, evidence and... 1/2

We tried to explain fiscal policy in NZ was crazy last year. Jack Tame was nice enough to interview me on Q&A on TVNZ. The RBNZ responded by disagreeing dismissively and the NZ Gov ignored us. It gives us no satisfaction to see unemployment rising & NZers migrating to Australia.

A dark time for democracy in Türkiye. The order to detain Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu is the latest example of the justice system being weaponized to cancel the democratic process. His detention violates the rights of millions of Istanbul voters.

Trump punishes Ukraine for being attacked, but Putin is just doing “what anyone would do in that situation”? Putin is doing this only because Trump is too much of coward to stop him and Putin knows this. Putin couldn’t take Ukraine in over three years, but he took Washington in only six weeks.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

"'Greed', for lack of a better word, is good" according to Gordon Gecko. Maybe time to retire this world view?
