Great piece by Lea Gimpel of "Digital Public Good Alliance" on “Digital Sovereignty Using Digital Public Goods”. I really liked the push back on isolationism👍 : “There is an ongoing misconception that the digital sovereignty movement is “isolationist.” Open-source and digital public goods are inherently designed to enable commons-based peer production.”

This is a very informative discussion and analysis of the federal budget bill including the macro effects (#deficits, #federaldebt, #interestrates ), distributional effects (who wins vs. who loses), and program effects (#snap, #medicaid, #aca, #tariffs ).

Republicans want to get this bill done fast because the more people learn about the bill, the more they don’t like it.

Guest is Sharon Parrott, Pres., Center Budget and Policy Priorities. #CBPP

With a meaningful influx of interest in #Mastodon and the #fediverse due to the #TwitterMigration, it seems like any declaration of a "winner" in the Carr–Benkler wager is premature.

Peer to Peer: A commons manifesto (2019) - Michel Bauwens, Vasilis Kostakis, and
Alex Pazaitis

This is an excellent introduction to modern day anticapitalist economic direct action through the creation of commons & cooperative socioeconomic systems.
