"Thermocracy" is a system in which a group's authority is directly proportional to the heat thier lifestyle emits.

Those who contribute most to global heating are the most shielded from its effects.

"The communities with the highest rates of drug deaths are also those that have been failed by our crumbling economic system: crushed by deindustrialisation, austerity and the dismantling of the social fabric."

Developers backed by American asset managers want to dredge up Falmouth harbour, spilling toxic chemicals into local waterways, just so mega cruise ships can drop off tourists who barely visit the local area.

STOP THE DREDGE

Neoliberals ignored people's policy preferences for decades.

Populists make a very simple promise: to give people what they actually want.

But the left needs to do more than respond to peoples' preferences - it needs to shape them.

We tend to think that markets reflect consumer choice.

But the artificial-intelligence boom has been powered by theinvestment decisions of concentrated capital rather than by consumer demand. https://t.co/EPMzW6SEZb

"AI is going to revolutionise global capitalism - how can it be a bubble?"

In this piece, I explain why both can be true at once: https://t.co/S4EH0ZIYNz

Die Ökonomin @graceblakeley ist jetzt Jacobin-Kolumnistin. ❤️‍🔥 In ihrer ersten Kolumne geht es um die tödlichen Konsequenzen von Hitzewellen. Denn diese ließen sich verhindern: mit der richtigen Infrastruktur- und Sozialpolitik.

[Jacobin Magazin @jacobinmag_de]

Schwimmbäder schließen, Hitze reißt den Asphalt auf, Erholung wird zum Privileg. Die erste Ausgabe des Jacobin Journals fragt, wem die freie Zeit gehört – und erinnert an Ernest Mandels Plan, mit einer eigenen Fluglinie die Weltrevolution zu verbreiten.

"Centering class, focusing on bread-and-butter policies, and delivering tangible changes in the daily lives of working people is the way forward for the left.

We need to show that it is socialists — not fascists — who are delivering for working people."
