@RodericDay On a tangential note - just saw this BBC article on the Chinese government's handling of the Himalayan flooding (desperately trying to paint the CPC in a poor light). Thought you might get a kick out of how weak the narrative is, if you've not read it already.

@BBCWorld "Stem any signs of discontent"... by helping people. How cynical, typical commies, can't trust them.

Ridiculous coverage

@BareLeft Tbf they're looking at the forecasted price rise over the next decade, which is likely to be driven more by policy costs - but it's 100% misleading to publish this article in the same week Ofgem announce the Q4 price cap increase (which has been caused by US-Iran, as you say)

@AllyFogg @commandant64907 Yeah fair play. Does call into question the validity of "democratic socialism" as an ideology if it produces people like Orwell though

[Matthew Carter @TheLifeOfMatt]

@AllyFogg @commandant64907 Thoughts on Orwell's list? Not very anti-fascist to write up names of people he suspected as communists or having "anti-white" or "homosexual tendencies", and give them to the British government?

@softlxnar @X_user_020 Would you mind sharing a link to the data please? >35p/kWh seems particularly high (e.g. the current variable price cap is c. 25p/kWh), so I'm wondering how/when DESNZ calculated it

@lil_caesar69 @turningmystile There are some great vegan ice creams. Worth trying if you haven't already

@OleTim2 @CantEverDie At this present moment, looking at the supply chains for the food we eat, we have a choice between human exploitation + some animal exploitation vs even more human exploitation + colossal levels of animal exploitation. There is a clear "better" option, even within capitalism

@uncle_authority @ColdEmpanadas "But China has billionaires!!"- ass take

@JuicyJuuce @GoldensHag @corpseinorbit @carlo_5518 @blowbackpod I think it does, but feel free to elaborate

[Matthew Carter @TheLifeOfMatt]

@JuicyJuuce @GoldensHag @corpseinorbit @carlo_5518 @blowbackpod Read about the transition to capitalism in France, Japan, pre-Soviet Russia, etc. etc.

They utilised existing feudal structures to develop past feudalism

[Matthew Carter @TheLifeOfMatt]

@JuicyJuuce @GoldensHag @corpseinorbit @carlo_5518 @blowbackpod Did abolishing feudalism, which also became more productive over time, lead to stagnation?

[Matthew Carter @TheLifeOfMatt]

@JuicyJuuce @GoldensHag @corpseinorbit @carlo_5518 @blowbackpod Nope. Reread the quote

[Matthew Carter @TheLifeOfMatt]

@JuicyJuuce @GoldensHag @corpseinorbit @carlo_5518 @blowbackpod Utilising mechanisms of capitalism to abolish it is communism, in Marx's definition

@Spoonsforme @DavidTalbot_ @nocontextmemes Nope, not religious
