Powerful is a weird word. Betraying your allies and making business deals with a weak enemy is far from powerful. Or wise.

“Imagine if we truly understand complex whale communication & can extend our term ‘language’ to them. Such breakthroughs would not only rewrite biology textbooks but also fundamentally redefine what it means to be human & pave the way to instituting new protections for whales, the ocean & beyond”🧪

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1

CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1

Trickle-down economics was always a sham.

Nothing has ever trickled down.

That's the thing, waiting for ethical businesses is something we don't have time to do, as they don't appear that often. And when they do, they tend not to stay ethical for long. Some essential things are not meant to be private.

Who owns it? The EU should create an independent entity that owns this. Otherwise it will be nice until the guy sells it or goes weird.

Not that we were speeding towards a more sustainable direction. We were barely dragging our feet, but that's too much for some.

Cities are what we imagine them to be. And what we're not giving away to for-profit entities.

The main thing he's selling is that people should compete with all other people, while the powerful work together to become more powerful.
And all his voters see is "hey, we're in a confrontation with Europe, we must win."

Everyday people need something simpler than Mastodon. It sounds great, but it hasn't been taking off for a while now...

Speaking of a democracy shield, it's time for an EU owned, people controlled social platform, to break free from the American billionaires' tech. Also, invest in EU mass-media to give free journalism a fighting chance in the face of state paid disinformation.

You can work an extra job, so you'll make a few more dollars. They can do nothing and the capital they accumulated will make them more millions/day. So yes, you can totally climb that ladder, if you work hard enough...
In order to get equal opportunities, we need to dismantle this bllsht system.
