Hey Dr. Raworth, for my senior paper on macro-policy I am researching new econ thinking, and just devoured “Doughnut” the other day. I am also following the digital commons movement and funding of social programs through blockchain. Have these two merged in your work yet?

Where the Oklahoma AI (proposed as data centers, but actually advanced AGI support campuses) infrastructure is growing and facts about the projected effects on Oklahoma’s water supply by 2017.

The Boot’s On Both Our Necks.

farm subsidies, rural roads & schools and “welfare handouts” of healthcare, food, shelter and the clean drinking water that’s needed for their data centers that are central to their utopian Post-Labor Market. See through the bullshit y’all. Fight back together or we’re all gonna lose. 🇺🇸🌎

will only benefit the other top 19% of them. That 20% of the globe is already set up for this, the rest of us are not. To increase profit they NEED us to tear each other apart and kill each other so we don’t drain their future bottom line with earned-income tax credits…

Hey, FOCUS Y’ALL, 80% of us are all in the SAME boat: As we fight over manufactured and traumatizing bullshit, 1% of financial giants are working to transition the global economy from a “Labor & Spending (Worker) Based Economy” to a “Profit & Interest (AI & Robotics) Based Economy (Post-Labor)” that

They keep mentioning 14 & 15 year olds. They trying to adult our youth for the camps maybe?

Came here specifically for your word on the re-rebreaking news.

Head to The CHE in Tulsa tonight, there is much work to be done!

I can’t wait to join the conversation tonight. I was on a research quest and happened upon Ugo Mattei’s work challenging Guido Calabresi, then discovered the work of Clara Mattei and her connection to the much discussed new CHE down the turnpike from us in Tulsa. We need this work so much here. TY!

Thank you.

All cause they want full patent rights. Disgusting.

They spread these lies about us protesting during BLM too. It’s all part of the propaganda machine to suppress resistance to their policies. Disruption is the point, unless you want more of Trump and Putin’s brand of disruption.

There are no "illegal protests" under the First Amendment.

This is just fascism brought to us by an ignorant old man drunk on power.

💯

Me and my wife were just discussing this, when the US has grabbed economic sovereignty from nations thru WB, IMF & WTO bank loans, they have sometimes put dictators in place for control. We believe our dictator is the Christian industrial complex. That’s Vance’s jam right there.

During BLM here in OKC they arrested a few dozen of us protestors, charged several of the young people with felonies including domestic terrorism. It took tons of legal fees and an unjust amount of jail time to pressure the DA to drop his charges. I don’t think they will drop them this time.

They “need” these resources. They don’t “think” they need us. Organize, Refuse to Comply, Speak Out, Act Up!

We have to do this, because we have got to survive this too.

And we can, let’s globalize.

UPS & Amazon need our postal service

SpaceForce & Boeing need our aviation

Nestle, American Water Works, the data centers for Microsoft & META need our water systems

Core Civic, GEO and Axon need our military, police and prison systems...

Cargill, ADM, Exxon & Weyerhaeuser need our land for corporate farming, drilling and deforesting and selling through giant real estate firms

McDonalds, Yum! Brands, WalMart & Tyson need our cheapest, least-liability labor (which they’re trying to replace with AI as fast as they can)

Pfizer & Moderna “need” that full COVID patent like they have all the others

Pearson & iSchools need our for-profit education dollars

Google & Apple need those rare earth minerals from the EU and any nation that gets in their way…

Their resources for growth have been becoming more and more scarce. They are parasitic now, eating themselves to grow, and all of it funded by us. They imprison us in their profit system and fuel it on our labor and tax dollars:

US Corps have been privatizing other countries (buying their infrastructures for debt repayment w/ compound interest) for nearly 80 years. These corps are multinational, meaning not loyal to any nation and they literally have to grow to survive...

Thread: US millionaires and billionaires have had majority vote power over the global economy since the inception of the World Bank & IMF after WW2, then expanded that power with the World Trade Organization during the “Greed is Good” 1990’s (the tech boom & extended 20 year health patents.)…

Screenshot of an article passage: The minimal requirements for democracy I have been discussing—political equality secured by protected universal enfranchisement and social and economic floors, universal and politically relevant public education, unowned and accountable media, transparent and accountable political institutions, severe restraints on concentrated interests, and a political culture oriented toward the public good—index everything missing in electoral democracies today. They also remind us how unnatural, nonautomatic, and nontechnical a political form democracy is. Each required element must be intentionally crafted, supported, protected, and renewed. Each is endangered by ordinary tendencies of political power to concentrate and centralize and by ordinary practices of political actors to manipulate, manage, and hide. None emanates from individual, market, or even social interests, only from a commitment to democracy itself. With its commitment to shared and diffuse political power, and its heavy requirements for a supportive culture, democracy is possibly one of the most difficult political forms to realize that have ever been imagined.

Some perspective from a very deep thinker.
