This new non-partisan reformist left (#Hedges, #Albanese, #Varoufakis, #Thunberg etc.) takes some organization to come together and demonstrate. Do we know what this organization is?

Yannis #Varoufakis nennt die #SocialMedia-Platzhirsche "digitale Lehensgüter" und #TechFeudalisten, die nach unbeschränkter Macht streben und längst nicht nur die #Digitaldomäne dominieren. #NaomiKlein, die mit "ShockDoctrine" nach Hurricane #Katrina bekannt wurde, fordert stärkere Regulierungen, insbesondere Schutz vor #Deepfakes und #Identitätsdiebstahl.

y fue reemplazada por un sistema dominado por la acumulación de renta. Según #Varoufakis, las masivas inyecciones de dinero por parte de los bancos centrales y la erosión del consumo debido a políticas de austeridad y estancamiento salarial transformaron el motor económico.
han alterado dichos procesos. El concepto de “#tecnofeudalismo” surge, según #Varoufakis, de la aparición de un nuevo tipo de capital -al que denomina #cloudcapital- q difiere de los modelos previos de capital industrial o financiero.

Some can't explain Chomsky's relation to #Epstein, given that the guy is in his 90s and obviously his pecker isn't cut for such adventures.

What his relation shows, is that #Chomsky is in the same club as #Putin, and #Maga/ #Bannon, Mossad/KGB.

And I'd speculate the same thing for #Varoufakis and #JeffreySachs given their euroskepticism. Maybe they're on the payroll of unsavory actors?

Don't know of Slavoj Žižek yet.

AGI/aliens can't come soon enough. It's all f'ed.

Yannis #Varoufakis stellt die These auf, dass der #Kapitalismus zum einen gewonnen hat u. zum anderen in einen #Techfeudalismus mit #CloudKapital mutiert ist. Mit dem Kapital wird nichts produziert, sondern im vorhinein, das Wollen u. das Angebot bestimmt. Ja ... in die Richtung geht es.

#Varoufakis über die Politik der USA gegenüber China und EU:

As for China, Varoufakis says that Trump understands that the U.S. will have to coexist with the East Asian nation but must also to rein in the Europeans while maintaining control of the Western hemisphere, likening the tentacles of the American empire to a bicycle wheel. “The bicycle wheel has a hub in the middle and it’s got spokes… you can break one or two or three spokes and the wheel still works,” Varoufakis says. “As long as you are the hub and you negotiate with each spoke separately, you keep them separate and you don’t allow them to get together and negotiate with you collectively, then you can extend your hegemony and make a lot of money in the process.”

El libro 📕 del profesor de universidad de economía y finanzas, #Varoufakis, debería ser lectura obligatoria para comprender las coordenadas de la sociedad actual: *los dueños de las grandes tecnológicas se convirtieron en los señores feudales del mundo, reemplazando al capitalismo con un sistema fundamentalmente nuevo que esclaviza nuestras mentes, desafía la democracia y reescribe las reglas del poder*
