“The insight that the free #exchange of goods and services has positive-sum benefits—a core tenet of #market #economics—has always eluded #Trump. His instincts are not #capitalistic but #pre-capitalistic. He has the mentality of a Renaissance baron, hoarding power and collecting tribute …”

That's because #StarTrek has #AI without all of the #capitalistic bullshirt and exploitation.

"It is a situation in which standard bearers of #colonial #capitalistic power – big law and big accountancy – walked into a remote #Indigenous community, appeared to vouch (innocently or otherwise) for the fraudster who was robbing this small band of people blind and, when called to account for their actions, rely on a contract the #FirstNation never knew existed..." This is how #KPMG rolls. It's time for #justice. https://cabinradio.ca/275201/news/justice/lutsel-ke-lawsuit-against-kpmg-can-proceed-in-nwt-judge-rules/

So we actually very much in agreement.
You point to a real problem of creative industries in the wake of #generativeai .
Keep in mind that "Intellectual Property" is itself a very #Capitalistic term, and is not self evident in a post-capitalistic society.
The "enriches the rich" is the problem of #neoliberalism and this is precisely why I think we should design a system based on #mutualism instead of #Capitalism

"Awareness" is a fucking #Capitalistic scam bred to pull financial and other resources (time, energy, platforms) from the #marginalized and benfit from those suffering

That will NEVER be our path to liberation and the abolition of #facism

Pat beautifully writes about this on #substack - https://open.substack.com/pub/patradicaltherapist/p/suicide-awareness-month-is-a-scam

Do you all actually care to reduce harm?

suicide awareness month is a scam

Suicide Awareness that ignores poverty, prisons, racism, ableism, transphobia, and systemic oppression isn’t awareness, it’s erasure.

...saw this on reddit and must agree 💯
#americancomrades, i know you are deeply mentally entrenched in the ideals of capitulation to the false authority of #capitalistic #patriarchical #slavery (as written 4u by #genocidal slave owners and called "#constitutional"), but please take notes from comrades in the rest of the world. 30str8 days of #generalstrike will achieve far more than any days spent slaving or voting..IF you truly want #liberation from the #matrix you were chained to from birth...

#Fear fuels the #DeathMachine and it's living and breathing from #WhiteWomanTears and the little saviors that #WhiteKnight for them

And if you tell it like it is, if you press their #AntiBlackness their lack of care or hell just their obvious hypocrisy they will eat you alive for their #Capitalistic slave drivers

#CorpoateSimps #Capitalist #Indoctrinators and everyone in between - anything to keep the status quo

Hypothetically I'm looking for an incredibly powerful #Crystal that can both harness and transmit immense amounts of #energy, I want to tune that Crystal to my own personal harmonic frequency, and attach it say to an em drive through my own #harmonic #frequency and the power and amplification of that Crystal I would be able to power a #spacecraft, the human brain is a highly powerful organ and the human harmonic frequency is equally powerful when tuned correctly a crystal should harness the #human energy amplify it I'll put it to an em drive and or batteries to power everything else I truly believe that #science has been greatly stifled by #capitalistic ideals instead of using #abstract thought and focusing on real #energies that exist naturally without the ability of being commercialized and before you say I'm a nut Job you should probably do your homework;

You can encourage my continued useless creative absurd ideas, and by doing so your helping to feed, house and clothe a #disabled man living in #poverty, $5-10-15 It All Helps, via #cashapp at $woctxphotog or via #paypal at paypal.com/donate?campaign_id=…

[Thread] So, the book #LimitsToGrowth is back in the news after the projections were updated. I've been doing a lot of reading and thinking about this topic (the preface of the book 1177BC, The Year Civilization Collapsed being the impetus).

My conclusion is that only #Degrowth and implementation of a lot of #SolarPunkSunday ideas (repairing stuff, building community, rewilding) will help us adapt to the coming changes. That's why I started SPS -- to highlight events, ideas and to build connections.

Yes, I am known for "Doomposting," but like with most things, I try and find solutions as well. Yeah, all the #Fascist BS isn't helping -- in fact, it's a symptom of the desperation of the elites to hold onto their #Capitalistic, #Colonial, #hierarchical ways. And, well, we all know where that leads.

We may not be able to fix the climate or all the other things that are going wrong right away, but we can try to adapt, and make sure by doing so, we aren't making the problems worse for all the beings that live here on planet Earth.

I'll be posting some quotes in this thread -- some with commentary, some just by themselves. Do humans have all the answers? Not sure (I know I don't)... But sticking our collective heads in the sand is NOT an option!

Big Mountain Legacy Film: SYNOPSIS / Re-enactments / A Dream of a Man
Director: Bahe (Naabaahii) Katenay (Keediniihii), October 2023 (75 minute featured documentary)

Background:

"In the 1970s, Dineh (Navajo) families around Big Mountain were notified that their communities would be uprooted and that they may never see their ancestral homelands ever again. Now 50 years later, less than 20 home sites remain and the once strong #resistance leaders like #PaulineWhitesinger, #HaastinNiizBegay, #JohnKatenay, and #RobertaBlackgoat (#KleeBenally's grandmother) have all passed on.

How should the future remember the legacies of such wise teachers? What gave their community the will to defy U.S.

Congressional Legislations that were nothing but anti-Indian which was forcing them to give up hundreds of years of cultural existence?

The Congress of the United States passed Public Law 93-531 in 1974 and it was signed by the President. It is an Executive Order, a declaration to exterminate, a declaration of war. The justification for this law was to “resolve” a supposed “land-dispute” among the Hopis and Dineh, and the lands were divided.

The 2023 Video Documentary:
The original impetus for resisting the federal mandate was the sacredness of the lands, ancestral ties and natural features which were dwelling places of Deities. The elder interviewees knew the future will not be the same way as they had lived and the same childhood experience. The video put aside much of the effective resistance against the most powerful, #capitalistic country in the world, instead the video presents stories about their ancestors’ teachings. A Dineh ritual existence which was basically daily living, ceremonies and nutrition. An indigenous atmosphere long before the Europeans’ arrival with its brutal conquest. The video narrowly touches on a 400-year history of cultural survival and maintaining identity. And how that history overlaps with so-called modern America.

One grandmother’s story become an intense chapter, and it is about her direct clan ancestry facing near annihilation as one little girl survives which resulted in re-establishing a Clan at Big Mountain.

"This story comes from a massacre site with two mass graves. Then stories about decades of intense state of fear and which lead into the US’s late 1800s war policy of random killing, starvation and captivity. The modern times the 1920s and 30s when these story tellers were born, a different state of fear had re-emerged, and then again at their elderhood in the late 1900s. All the stories in this documentary program are messages for the future because, as these elders have predicted, the lands maybe empty of indigenous culture which once thrived for centuries."
