Other option is enforce maximum wages + limit share options. Then also start to socialise companies under democratic ownership as part of an integrated plan which progressively eliminates private property and the market

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory

All out for the anti fascist struggle on 28 March!

Agree. I have lived in London since I was 19 and rarely suffered any problems with crime. This whole narrative is just being pushed by fantasist fascists and white isolationists and its completely out of kilter with reality.

Bunker billionaires on a burning planet Capitalism is driving ecological destruction and social upheaval. Is it a death cult, and can we escape it?

We exist in a machine that is destroying the basis of life on the one planet we have to live on. This is commonly understood. Yet very little is done about it. Why?

Should we “nationalise the entire economy”? Zarah Sultana caused a big debate by calling for the entire economy to be nationalised. But does nationalisation mean socialism? Simon Hannah investigates

Manifesto for an Ecosocialist Revolution - Break with Capitalist Growth

I read and recorded an audiobook version of this year's Manifesto for an Ecosocialist Revolution for @anticapitalistresistance.org pca.st/episode/6b80...

I think this is a bit of a silly caricature...

Your Party has been launched and of course no one is exactly happy with it but that reflects the state of the left. However the fact that it exists at all is a positive thing - now the has a party we can engage in proper strategic thinking about power and how to change society.

The Ecosocialist Action Network - on the need for “a socialist solution to combat climate change. It is committed to working with any other groups with similar objectives, or on specific campaigns.”

UNISON is the biggest union in the NHS, but recently it hasn't felt like it.

It’s all very blah. There’s a brewing civil conflict in many countries as the fascists and far right gain power, the right to vote for women is under attack in the USA, and again NOTHING ON THE CLIMATE!

No sense of urgency. It’s just an Anglican vicars wish list for a nicer world.

Trump intends to leave the government shut down, and to use any public disruption in response to societal breakdown and starvation as a pretext to institute martial law, maybe via the Insurrection Act, or whatever. He is preparing for violent rule by king.

YouTube video by SWFT Andor: The Great Dictator Speech

To those who can hear me - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people

Free Palestine!

International solidarity will change the world.

Look I’m sorry, but it’s likely heading towards a global civil war. I’m not trying to be over dramatic but look at what is going on and what is at stake - including the climate crisis. Peaceful “civil discourse” is increasingly a relic of the past

🚮 It's not just Trump, it's the whole system.

We must take the fight to all who profit as they fuel inequality, war, genocide and climate breakdown.
