I just signed a petition I think you’d really care about. It’s about how billionaires and big corporations are gaining more and more control over our rights, our freedom, and even using intimidation to try and stop people from speaking out.

They’re using their money to weaken environmental protections, silence dissent and shape policies that serve their interests—not ours.

If you’re up for it, take a look and consider signing: https://act.gp/4jBsyfk

Fight the billionaire takeover and corporate intimidation - Greenpeace International

Billionaires and corporations are tightening their grip on our democracies — and silencing dissent. They weaken protections for people and the planet, bankroll politicians who serve their interests, control media narratives, and use corporate intimidation to shut down free speech. It’s time to fight back!

📚 📖
Today (after our recent move) I walked to the nearest village and visited the tiny library. Walked out with my library card 🎉 and a couple books, one of which looks very interesting:
"Cancelling Billionaires, Before They Cancel Us"
"The urgent case for wealth tax"
by Lisa McQuaig and Neil Brooks

It should be a good read!

@lillyfinch personally, I wished for #Sanders & #AOC but #SuperPACs and #Billionaires hate them, and tgat's why the #USA didn't get them.

Historian called out billionaires face to face in Davos

The vehicle that #Musk frequently turned to is one that many of the ultrarich use: limited liability companies [#LLC], which are designed to shield owners from #legal & #financial risks, as well as public scrutiny. Whatever Musk’s intent, the effect of using these companies has been to disguise how he is spending his #money.

The Times’s examination also offers a window into how #Musk used private #companies to support #Trump during the 2024 #election. Tapping these companies to cover the expenses of a #superPAC is “highly unusual”, #CampaignFinance experts said, & ended up obscuring how #money was being spent because they are not subject to the disclosure requirements of super PACs.
