“a belief that anarchism is incapable of acting as a revolutionary force in its own right, and must therefore outsource its agency to liberal institutions…anarchism becomes merely a branding aesthetic rather than a commitment to revolutionary action.”

Ruth Wilson Gilmore's definition of racism gets at why it's not something that can be ignored: "the state-sanctioned and/or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death". --- THE PREMATURE DEATH part is not something that can be "ignored"

The degree of accuracy had a fair amount of luck in it (<2% error). The realisation the NHS projections of 5000-8000 were horseshit, did not. Growth rates would have had to double-to-quadruple in a week.

Due to overwhelming demand (two requests) this is how I predicted flu bed numbers - actuals were 3,140.
I looked at the weekday-matched growth rates, and extrapolated to second derivative. That’s all. Took 10 minutes. The rest of the time was looking at NHS press releases and yelling at my screen.

Real number will out on Thursday.
My guess: 3,200 or thereabouts.

Also: it’s worth noting that specific concern about the intifada line has *exactly fuck all* to do with its seriousness, or even the prevalence of its use. It is 100% because it was used against the new mayor of New York in a major bullshit campaign, which makes it the most recent propaganda drivel.

Important thing to understand is that the UK press, having had to concede the issue "racism is bad," have been working very hard to define racism as being just "saying the really bad slurs out loud, and even then it's ok if you're just joking." So this is right on their turf.
The fact there's even the tiniest hint of a debate about whether or not this very obviously racist man who has built his entire career on being a racist is a racist or not. I... I just can't.
Everyone’s talking about whether Farage was racist to schoolchildren as a boy when he was racist to schoolchildren THIS WEEK. All the kids who are of reading age can read what he says about them.

Makes you wonder how useful executives truly are eh
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

The problem with fetishizing the rule of law is that people have to break the law to resist fascism, state violence, and oppression. This has always been true, and is very much the case RIGHT NOW.

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society:
Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.
