THE #BODYLITERACY VISUAL READER
Shauna GMI found "Empire of Cotton" by Sven Beckart to illustrate this argument well. He says that the groundwork for modern capitalism (and before it, industrial capitalism) was laid by "war capitalism" based around the use of state violence to expropriate land and labor. These corporations were able to create new states (ie Massachusetts, Virginia) or take over existing ones (as with the Bengali state) but they began fully dependent on European states.
Mardita@diospiro very fucking ominous but tracks when you consider what they've been doing with menstrual data surveillance

[email protected] - 2022 Oct 18: "Apple will use data gathered from Apple Watch owners to launch a health insurance biz in 2024"
"Apple already collects data like blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, ECG readings and body temperature from the Watch, as well as helping people regulate their medication... Analysts believe having access to such rich data will give Apple a head start in the insurance market"

Jamie Murphy#bodyliteracy is so critical in this age of developing femtech and menstrual surveillance
Phil LoringI gave a #LandBack lecture in my #foodsystems class yesterday. I always start with a perspective on what was here before 1491, and share data from this study.
Students are always *stunned* by the data from this paper, which estimates that 56 million #Indigenous people died by 1600, 90% of their population.
They are also always stunned to learn that the disruption of land use was so great it changed global #climate.
