So, this is a timely topic! From the latest issue of #InTheseTimes! The connection between Amazon Deforestation and CEO land grabs in the Western United States -- bought with blood money!
Fortress Yellowstone
The #UltraRich are fortifying themselves inside one of America’s last intact #ecosystems—with money plundered from ecological #SacrificeZones around the world
by Joseph Bullington, April 6, 2026
Excerpt: "Some of these ultra-rich ranch owners celebrate the natural beauty of their land and are ardent conservationists when it comes to the Yellowstone ecosystem. In digging into their business dealings, however, I found that most of these landowners accumulated their wealth through industries that help drive the destruction of nature elsewhere. Their ranks include private equity investors, oil and gas billionaires and real estate developers. "

"Now, instead of forests full of fruits and animals and mandioca clearings, industrial soy plantations press in on #Açaizal like a closing fist. There is no escape from the onslaught of #monoculture. Manoel shows me where rows of broken cornstalks run right up against the edge of the community’s soccer field, which the soy farmers also want to plow. The soybeans and corn, like those in the United States, are genetically engineered to withstand the #herbicides and #pesticides the farmers dump on them to beat back weeds and pests, but the chemicals drift, says Manoel, making it impossible to grow fruits and vegetables and #mandioca nearby. The streams run low and full of poison."

#RecommendedViewing for the weekend: the recording of Julia Cagé's excellent presentation on "The Price of Democracy": https://vimeo.com/1173194930?fl=pl&fe=sh
In it the economist tackles how the #ultrarich buy influence, what this means for representative #democracy (and which representation we actually have, ie. no longer #WorkingClass MPs) with long-term data from different countries and insights on media on so-called "#philanthropy".
Was a great event, German intro, then EN, thanks Arbeiterkammer!
Ai = slop
IP = heuristic
Even the library failed us, as so many have not been recognised for their contributions like women, other ethnic groups and those of different physical and mental dispositions. Thinking otherwise is censored rather than rewarded. The reason being is the beast, and that is corporate sovereignty, giving power to those who bet and fix populist ideologies ground on inequality and injustice. They serve the Ultra Rich UR, who deal in corruption so are rewarded by tyrants and extremists. The book and legacy media have been updated so the power social software can not only influence but Control the programmes of Information Processing. Now the URs can impose the uniformity of their interests so as to crush those of the many that oppose their greed and corruption. Artificial information = Ai, so not intelligence but the technology of indoctrination representing the interests the UR corporate investors who believe ‘freedom = inequality and injustice’ is the right freedom and the only freedom that counts! #UtrasAreTheOppressors #UltraRich #URs #UIltaRichAbusers #FreedomFromFascistAbusers

Epstein files suggest acts that may amount to crimes against humanity, say UN experts
"The experts said crimes outlined in documents released by the US justice department were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption and extreme misogyny. The crimes, they said, showed a commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls."

It's time for those institutions that have awarded Bill Gates with honorary doctorates to rescind all of them.
