@VaniaBurnell @ZackPolanski Someone else would buy it if it wasn’t owned by Trump. It wouldn’t disappear into thin air.

Fully Automated Luxury Communism !!( @AaronBastani )

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI.

AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

@MattP1Gallagher what do we need to do to fix the engine clipping? do the batteries just need to be bigger?

@NapierHolland @AaronBastani Where you won’t contribute to the local economy instead you’ll drive up the cost of living for the locals. or to the economy of the uk. Then you’ll come back and expect to be looked after by the British state. Estas aprender a língua ??

@Carlisitus @j_bambrick The protests have nothing to do with the attack on the synagogue. They’re anti genocide protests, particularly triggered in this instance by the interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla by Israel. It’s coincidental timing, and this post is trying to divide on sectarian lines.

@revenuenexus @alternatehamlet @AyoCaesar I think the above quote tracks with the idea that, for Marx and Engles, buying your own dwelling is not the same as buying a house for the purpose of renting?

@revenuenexus @alternatehamlet @AyoCaesar Chapter 2 of the manifesto: ‘Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations.’

@AaronBastani hey Aaron, I’m trying to find a clip of you talking recently about the benefits of charging VAT on private schools, it was very concise but I can’t seem to find it now, I think it was on Novara Live.

@TfL @MayorofLondon What’s with all the woke names? Why not a Tommy Robinson line? Me, and I’m sure many other patriots, would proudly ride on that. 🇬🇧

Whatever your position is, just take a moment to reflect on just how dark this is.

Just hours after the ICJ concluded that Israel was plausibly committing genocide and ordered it to dramatically step up humanitarian efforts, 7 Western countries sanctioned... not Israel but the Palestinians and the UN (!!!).

They cut funding for UNRWA, which is THE UN agency tasked with humanitarian assistance to Palestinians (and therefore their main lifeline).

Even if you were the world's worst cynic, you'd still have a hard time expecting such sheer level of cruelty and depravation. This is absolutely unfathomable.

They did so with the cheapest possible excuse, effectively using Israel's narrative that "UNWRA is Hamas" and allegations by Israel that some UNWRA staff were involved in the 7th Oct attack but 1) Israel has been making these accusations for months (so the timing of cutting funding right after the ICJ ruling is obviously not a coincidence) and 2) UNWRA has announced it's terminated the contracts of the staff members accused (12 people out of its 30,000 strong workforce) and launched an investigation, so it obviously doesn't condone this. Even if the allegations were to be proven correct, how can an organization of 30,000 staff be held collectively accountable for the individual actions of 0.04% of its workforce? Especially in the current context when its work is a life or death matter for millions of people.

To add to the cynicism here, UNWRA staff are actually a major victim of the war with at least 152 UNRWA staffers killed by Israel in Gaza to date. In a normal world, it is Israel that should be punished for killing so many members of a humanitarian organization. But nope, it's the humanitarian organization that's getting punished, alongside with the very vulnerable population it's committed to helping.
