@Bad @ChrisMayLA6 #Economic #violence is hardly a new #phenomenon, though, is it? It has been with us for a very long time. There are those who argue that #Palaeolithic & #Mesolithic #societies were #egalitarian & #pacific - practically #Utopian, indeed (I very much doubt the truth of this thesis) - but #humans have definitely organised themselves in increasingly #hierarchic & #inegalitarian societies from the #Neolithic onwards.

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jun/04/world-inequality-lab-equality-academics-planetary-survival. A #utopian #fantasy, delivered by Ivory Tower left-wing #academics, like Thomas #Piketty, who don't realise there is no saving our so-called #civilisation from the #revenge of #Gaia, or the remorseless #logic of #social #entropy. They will still be saying all can saved, even as the grand edifice of #global #technological #capitalism crashes down around their ears - but see: https://globaljusticeproject.wid.world/.

“What I like about Ballard’s work is how he turns this #apocalyptic vision into something life affirming. Whatever catastrophes happen in history, human life re-emerges and other types of civilisation arise. That is also my belief.” #JGBallard #books #utopian fivebooks.com/best-books/j...

Poster 3 of [who knows how many] has been finished. I was going for a "tacky and well-dated yet kinda cool-looking poster you'd see on a library wall during the 90's" vibe. Enjoy.
