I have friends everywhere. Don't look up. Our seeming democracy is really plutocracy. Smash capitalism. Opposed to fossil fuels, nukes, plutocracy, ICE. Trump is even worse than the Democrats. Leaflet: https://leftymathprof.wordpress.com/endcap/#top

All this fuss about "don't follow illegal orders." But the USA has had many, many wars, all based on lies, all of them illegal.
Many people have been asking, "should we eliminate AI before it eliminates us?" I wish they would ask the same question about capitalism.

Some of the fascists are talking about defending "western civilization." I suggest that we non-fascists and anti-fascists start using the phrase "human civilization." I think we humans will survive together or not at all. (Though how we will convert the fascists, I haven't a clue.)

The USA has had many, many wars, all based on lies, all of them illegal. Most current members of congress have been there long enough to share blame for some of the wars. That is, they are mass murderers. Vote for a third party candidate instead.

I'm tired of people making up bad stuff about Russia. Particulaly people in the US propaganda mill. And that includes the stuff about the invasion of Ukraine being unprovoked.

Ecological doom-loops: Why ecosystem collapses may occur much sooner than expected
Around the world, rainforests are becoming savanna or farmland, savanna is drying out and turning into desert, and icy tundra is thawing. Indeed, scientific studies have now recorded "regime shifts" l...

To end fascism in the USA, I guess the first step is to explain to more people what it is we don't like about fascism.
Currently, my own explanation begins with "fascism = bullying."

It's a conclusion I've been trying to avoid, but I'm becoming convinced: The rich can't be reasoned with, so we'll have to kill them, I don't know how. Otherwise everyone, rich and poor, will soon die, in an ecosystem collapse caused by the rich. I wonder if I'll get in trouble for saying that.

Around 15 years ago I was saying things like
(*) we need to end capitalism, not just for all the reasons that the Marxists talk about, but also because capitalism is about to destroy the climate and kill us all.
* didn't really catch on back then. But just lately lots of people have been saying *.

So, below is EU President von der Leyen saying that the EU is "not fighting fossil fuels, only emissions."
And here is the Saudi envoy to COP30 saying exactly the same thing.
I'm telling you: climate politics are unified around the lie that we can keep fossil fuels & still deal w climate anyway.

Some Democrats recently reminded the military that they are legally obligated to disobey any illegal orders they are given. But we've had many, many wars, all of them illegal, all of them based on bipartisan lies by congress. The plutocracy LIKES (and profits from) wars.

I'm hoping for a great awakening in which all of our society realizes bullying is bad, and the bullies decide to turn over a new leaf. But I have to admit, "hoping" does not sound like a particularly forceful strategy.
