Roadmap - New Economies for Eradicating Poverty

Rights-based, post-growth policies that make poverty eradication a deliberate outcome of restructured economies — not a trickle-down side effect of destructive growth.

"The Roadmap for Eradicating Poverty Beyond Growth [...] is a project spearheaded by the UN Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights to expand the range of policy options available in the fight against poverty, beyond those that rely on economic growth."

The growth of fascist cults is financed by an Empire built on the nihilistic finality of Corporate Sovereignty. The micro thin repitition of a gilded image built on slop: tech delusions, LLM mimicry, unqualified control freaks, deadly decisions and the unrestrained abuse of human rights #Ecocide #DataCenters #AbnormalDistributions #ExtremePoverty #ExtremeWealth
