Brilliant analysis by @zetkincollective.bsky.social on how the inversion of actually existing crises fuels moral panics & drives the broader process of fascisation, which only exacerbates the crises of the present www.versobooks.com/products/340...
they’re making ai-generated, pro-concentration camp propaganda
Ben Gvir posted this video on twitter today which shows fat and happy Palestinians on a conveyer built going through the Israeli "prison" (torture camp) system and coming out emaciated and maudlin. This is textbook genocidal content.
Heute in Hamburg! 17 Uhr (Einlass ab 16:30) // Metropolis Kino // Kleine Theaterstraße 10

It was a joy to be on "Less Worse", alongside @aprilanson.bsky.social, to discuss what's bad at present and speculative futures in which things might be less... bad. (Ecofascism and fossil fascism are... bad!) Many thanks to @mitchrmurray.bsky.social and Andrew Fitzgerald for hosting us at RPI!
"China’s auto factories are building so many cars the global shipping industry can’t keep up Some automakers are so desperate to get vehicles to Europe, Australia & Latin America they're squeezing them in containers more commonly used to ship furniture, clothes and electronics" @katemac.bsky.social
There Aren’t Enough Ships to Handle China’s Booming Car Exports
As demand slumps at home, Chinese cars are flooding other markets—and testing the shipping industry.

Why are car-centric transport systems so difficult to undo? Because automobiles represent the dominance of private property over public space. In this @urbancyclinginstitute.org essay, I look to history to uncover how we got here. #StealingCars

@zetkincollective.bsky.social: "Every time a European far-right party denies or downplays climate change, it makes a statement about immigration."

Mattei fu partigiano e antifascista, il piano Mattei del governo Meloni è fascismo fossile a la @zetkincollective.bsky.social www.lastampa.it/politica/202...

Pec del nipote alla premier: «Non usi il cognome per il Piano, lei distante dalle scelte di mio zio»

Alla vigilia del #25aprile, la famiglia del partigiano Enrico Mattei diffida ufficialmente il governo Meloni a usare il nome del nonno antifascista. E ora? Ipotesi... "piano Italo Balbo"? "piano Rodolfo Graziani"? "Piano faccetta nera"?
