Democracy depends on shared ground truths. Abandoning evidence as the basis for debate doesn't just distort individual issues — it corrodes the infrastructure of collective decision-making. Misinformation matters. @lewan.uk

Aaron Benanav’s Beyond Capitalism paper sets out a detailed long-term plan for a systemic transition. Even though it intentionally does not tackle the short-term path to power, it makes a key point about mass mobilization. /2 autonomy.work/portfolio/be...

Beyond capitalism: from design to implementation

Two Aarons - @thierryaaron.bsky.social and @abenanav.bsky.social - have recently written about broad movements winning elections as a condition for system change. This supplies several essential elements of transition strategy. Although not an Aaron myself, I’m taking the liberty to make a 🧵

I'm excited to release part 3 of my series on beyond capitalism with @Autonomy_Inst. The big question people often asked about my recent work is—ok sure, but how do we get there? Please have a look at my first sketch of an answer to that question. autonomy.work/portfolio/be...

Great article @quinnslobodian.com - it also indirectly shows why the many callers for a new system or political order need to be more propositional. Any consensus that ‘emerges’ and is featured at places like Harvard is likely to be rebranded, toothless centrism.

Post-Neoliberalism is the New Centrism

At a recent convening devoted to the death of neoliberalism, what emerged was less a rupture with the past than a centrist project of status-quo stabilization.

Shout out to @edzitron.com @carolecadwalla.bsky.social @sarahkendzior.bsky.social for the inspiration. On days like today, when breaking through the noise feels impossible, you’re what I think of to keep going.

If you’ve ever called for a new political order, economy, or narrative, I have one question: Where is that new system going to come from? This week I was at 2 events where speakers again called for a long-term project. No one seemed to disagree. But where is the plan to make it happen?

Really tough issue. One thing is to tackle things that people (quite often wrongly) blame on migrants, eg lack of GP appointments or housing shortages. Fairness matters a lot - if people can see or can be persuaded that they & others are being treated equally, that should help.
