he’s an idiot but if le pen wins it really might be curtains for liberal democracy everywhere

[Clash Report @clashreport]

French Presidential Candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon:

Gross domestic product. I dig a hole, GDP goes up. I fill it in, GDP goes up.

I get into my car, drive into a wall, GDP goes up because we have to rebuild the wall and repair the car.

GDP is just a monetary valuation.

charge ahead a little quicker, and that could result in great gains for all of us.

It is a great tragedy that this moment is more likely to spell doom for us than inspire us to make long needed changes to how we organize our life on this planet. 🧵4/4.

[matt @mattsmatz]

Eliminating entire fields of employment SHOULD be a good thing though. A massive reduction in labor time, if equally distributed, could be a great thing for humanity.

What’s tough is to equally distribute those gains, we would need massive overnight economic reorganization 🧵1/4

[Basil🧡 @LinkofSunshine]

@AGlavkoverkh Other than destroying the world, there’s eliminating entire fields of employment, areas of purpose in life, and making creative projects less enjoyable

[matt @mattsmatz]

we have an economic system that is centered on short term profit rather than first and foremost making sure all (or at least almost all) people thrive, no matter what societal or economic shocks we face as a species.

With a better social/economic/political system, AI COULD 🧵3/4

how much rent would actually fall by if we just made all of manhattan and the most urban parts of brooklyn/queens/bronx blue?

seems like a no-brainer if the answer is actually “a lot”

[Basil🧡 @LinkofSunshine]

Everywhere NYC allows high density housing (>10x square footage of the lot size)

Dark Blue, midtown and soon 100 Gold downtown, allows 15+)

[matt @mattsmatz]

no its the nicotine

[𝓐𝓺𝓮𝓮𝓵𝓪𝓱🧚🏼 @aqee_sofine]

Owning a vape has taught me that nicotine isn't even half as addicting as the inhale habit itself.
