@iamdorkside We're heading for a cost of living crisis. I think that might be part of the problem.

Lebanon and Iran might be grabbing people's attention as well.

We have to be interesting and dynamic somehow and keep going.

We've been living in cost of living crisis for a while. Child poverty has been steadily increasing, as well as military spending. I don't know how to get people to connect the dots faster. There's no voting our way out of this. We have to organise, both locally and globally.

Sweden, child poverty: The child poverty report is an in-depth analysis of the economic vulnerability of children in Sweden. It was conducted during the period 2019–2023.

Sweden, military spending 12.9 billion USD in 2026, more than double that in 2017.
