For Land | Part one: Capital as extinction
'For Land: Capital as extinction' by Prolekult films is quite literally a tour de force and one of the most important #ecosocialist and #Marxist insights on the climate and environment crises. There's loads more behind the pay wall too incl. an interview with Jason Moore.

If British farms are less competitive then food production will simply shift elsewhere.
Iβve written about the recent Labour budget and what it might mean for an agricultural green transition.

Against Segregation: approaching the British disabled peoples' movement
It is #DisabledHistoryMonth and if you have time to do just one thing to recognise and participate in it, you *have* to watch Prolekult's film 'Against Segregation: Approaching the British Disabled Peoples' Movement'
It is the best kind of #Marxism: educating and moving.

You can send my mate a picture of a beige wall, with half a photo of a street scene and some brass furnishings and ask him, "Where am I?" And he will, more or less everytime, tell you which pub in Birmingham you're sitting in. It's a superpower but also v worrying. Truly.

I'll be honest, I was a boxing fan and had no idea about the rape so would have defended his "right to rehabilitation". I don't know how I missed it, but you're totally right.

80% of trans workers have experienced bullying, harassment or discrimination at work in the last five years.
Unions, reps and members have an essential role fighting all forms of discrimination, including transphobia.
Our movement is built on solidarity among workers: we are stronger together.

Interesting chart from the IEA on how employment in the energy sector has changed since Covid.
China has added 2 million clean energy jobs. In all regions except North America, more clean energy jobs are being added than are lost in fossil fuels.

I wouldn't know what to honestly say on that apart from I've got a bit of knowledge across a few areas but never approached any topic, branch or specialism purposefully or systematically.
Will be approaching it as a Marxist, but not especially interested in doing so explicitly for 'marxology'.
