Broadly speaking, there are 2 political factions. Not Labour v Tory/Reform, Republicans v Democrats etc, but an economic elite, operating globally, versus all of us. Though they are small in number, through the power of the political, media and social media systems they control, they keep winning.

So tutto, ma il fatto che abbia un bridge su Mdon già non è banale, considerando che è uno dei giornalisti più scafati e popolari d'Inghilterra

Preferisco che più gente veda i suoi post qui che si faccia un account Bsly aposta, no?

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social money/power controls governments whereas it should be the inverse

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social I don't think this is right. The economic elite is important to highlight, and they certainly have hugely outsized amounts of power and control. "The rest of us" contains plenty of divergent interests/perspectives. Your local car dealer is likely (though not certainly) not part of the elite, but their perspectives are unlikely to be those of grocery store clerks or janitors or nurses. "Us vs. Them" is handy for some things, but not very descriptive.
