If 1000 billion dollars for a single human beings work really makes you think about the labor theory of economic value AND the madness of economic reason, do I have the essay for you by @cacrisalves.bsky.social. What Would Marx say?

Alberto! I’m honoured with this mention. Thank you so much. I’m glad you like it… you was in my mind when I decided to give the ‘polycrisis’ angle. You and @phenomenalworld.bsky.social.

“As long as the logic of capital accumulation remains intact, technological innovation will continue to deepen, not alleviate, the social & ecological challenges we face.”

Weekend read?
In honour of D Harvey’s birthday, I revisit Marx, Capital & the Madness of Economic Reason. I challenge the ‘polycrisis’ narrative, focus on capital & use a physics analogy to explain value.
Happy birthday, David Harvey! 🎉🎂
