David Graeber

I'm an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such. I see anarchism as something you do not an identity so don't call me the anarchist anthropologist

[The MIT Press @mitpress.bsky.social @mitpress]

@ALALibrary @gregmepstein @tsterndc We're also offering BLADs of "Cities Made Differently," a new book by David Graeber & @nikadubrovsky, which opens a space for invention & collaboration. Using playful graphics and curious facts, they invite us to rethink the worlds we inhabit.

"The Little Book of @davidgraeber, in different colors," is gradually coming together.

Perfectly spiritually cruel design for the book about spiritual violence. ⁦@davidgraeber⁩

Why have carnivals in the first place?

Carnival is an anti-war and activist art movement that is not about party politics. It is not a protest movement in the sense of building bridges with power but aims to reorganize the very logic of our relationship with authorities.

[David Graeber @davidgraeber]

Remembering David: it's been 3 years since his death.
This is David's last video taken in Berlin the day before we left to Venice.
David would die a few days later.

De Verlichtingsidealen worden doorgaans gezien als een westers concept. Maar @davidgraeber meent dat veel van die ideeën juist buiten Europa ontstonden - bijvoorbeeld bij piraten op Madagaskar.🏴‍☠️ Zo vertelt @ABlijdenstein bij @OVTradio1. Luister terug via: https://t.co/jcONgradgs

[Dr. Yan Zhou @yanzhou77]

But the story of Libertalia is still obscure and mystic. I wonder what David would think of Zheng Yi Sao and the Chinese pirate society if he cast his eyes on Asia? https://t.co/EEnzkANobk @davidgraeber 2)

See you there!

[#bullshitjobs @bullshitjobs]

@b_lillico @RBReich @davidgraeber It's not zero-sum. It's a negative-sum monetary system, resulting in a negative-sum economy. 3-4 billion #bullshitjobs are destroying Earth, not contributing anything to society. #climatechange and "inflation" are symptoms of global nonsense employment.

[Aram Zucker-Scharff | @[email protected] @Chronotope]

it is wild to watch people become so alienated from their labor they've come all the way around to interpreting the the types of work from @davidgraeber's Bullshit Jobs as some sort of capitalist realist virtue and that casts Sisyphus's torture as a self-rewarding success hack.

[Daron Larson @DaronLarson]

@dvassallo “@ShankarVedantam talks with @davidgraeber about the rise of bullshit jobs and how these positions can affect the people who hold them.”

Pirate Enlightenment, or the Real Libertalia by David Graeber review – utopia by the sea https://t.co/22o0Uwg53W

[Peter Wullen @PWullen]

"Whatever happened in 18th-century Madagascar, Pirate Enlightenment implies, we could surely all do with a bit more free-thinking and egalitarianism in our own social, sexual and political arrangements." (The Guardian)

[Maxminervas.bsky.social @maxminervas]

The late, great David Graeber takes on the established view (again) of the enlightenment in this fascinating book. Provocative and piratical as ever.

[Nika Dubrovsky @nikadubrovsky]

Many thanks to everyone who turned out yesterday to the launch of @davidgraeber Pirate Enlightenment.
Looking forward to the recording.

“It is very hard to be objective about pirates. Most historians don’t even try.”

The late #DavidGraeber’s final posthumous book is out now!

@bfcarlson The late, great David Graeber @davidgraeber

Here’s him debating Peter Thiel on where the future went. And that topic isn’t even his intellectual bread and butter.
