They say that Native Americans were so popular in East Germany that entire groups of people would go off into the woods and live like Indigenous tribes. When I was living in Berlin, I met a young man who had actually grown up in one of these communities.

It would be great to put together a collection of films about Native Americans from different countries. This was one of the few mass and popular trends that were both anti-capitalist and anti-colonial in the second part of the 20th century.

The decolonial struggle continues. It's not so easy to shake off former mastersβ€”they're like vampires, determined not to die but to slip into the shadows, hide from daylight, and pretend they belong among the living, that they're just like the rest of us. But they're notβ€”not like us!

4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

In the past two years, with surprisingly little notice, renewable energy has suddenly become the obvious, mainstream, cost-efficient choice around the world.

Fact check: Did an ocean current reverse? A report from a European news wire agency on the reversal of an important ocean current has sparked alarm online.

OH MY GOD, NO… πŸ™„

The current systems of the Southern Ocean did NOT reverse. Not even close.

This was all based on a b.s. press release β€” not a scientific paper β€” that is wildly, absurdly wrong.

With the radical progress of automation, we’re heading toward a world where workers are no longer needed β€” and without workers, there are no consumers.

So what comes next?

The Soviet elites wanted to integrate into the Western project. And now, capitalism might dismantle itself too β€” to escape the logic of production and consumption.

I wonder if something similar could happen to capitalis as happened with the Soviet elites β€” who, as David used to say, dismantled their own system in order to shift the underlying anthropological structure of kinship, so they could pass their privileges on to their children.

The nazis were so socialist the first people they put in camps were socialists and communist. Whatever social ideas they had were for a racially pure or purified people. Thats not socialism. Socialism is for all or its not socialism.

Hudson was right to say that maybe only capitalism can fix this broken system β€” to save itself.Β 

It’s pretty clear we’re heading toward a revolution β€” but it will likely surprise us and look nothing like what we expect.
