Great thread @graceblakeley on #USAElection2024 #Trump2024 - but can we please all stop posting on X - keep following but stop posting and use Bluesky, LinkedIn or other alternative? .@ecodenker @GhoshAmitav @HelenHet20.
All over the rich world, people’s lives are getting worse. It’s harder to afford the basics, keep a roof over your head, and access care when you’re sick. People will keep voting for whoever they think will bring back prosperity. 1/.

Welcome to the ‘brave new world’ of dark capitalism. With #Trump's victory, the capitalist ‘superorganism’ started its darkest metamorphosis – a turn towards BigTech-Billionaire-dominant, authoritarian future. But: the return of the light begins in the darkest hour of the night.

How do politicians think about voters? Most of them have a cynical, minimalist view of them - great paper and thread @LiorSheffer et al.
Now in @apsrjournal: What do politicians think about their voters? Fielding face-to-face surveys to 982 sitting politicians in 11 countries, and surveys of 12,000 citizens, we find they have remarkably consistent - and cynical - theories of voters: /1.

The political spat between the @europeangreens and the 'green' party of @DrJillStein is symptomatic of the failure of international green party politics - I wonder what real ecologists in the US think about it @NJHagens.
Green politicians from across Europe called on U.S. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw from the race for the White House and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris instead.

Lol, misschien eerst eens goed nadenken over mijn tweet voor je reageert.
@3eintelligence @vrtnws Tja. Als er zo 1 op 1000 is, dan zal VRT die vinden. #sameneenmeerderheid in de RvB.

Of hoe ook klimatologen de ruwe realiteit van #climatecollapse blijven ontkennen @vrtnws.

'Self-limitation is the key to democratic rule' - Erica Benner - hope we can discuss that with her @ecopolis on 9 November, because our 'progressive' & green liberal approach to democracy has fundamental problems with the idea of #limits @ecodenker.
The fantastic political philosopher Erica Benner speaking in Brussels @Ecopolis_be - her latest book on democracy has lots of lessons for Brussels #EUBubble - & also Belgian politics - hear this podcast @EngelsbergIdeas as an eye-opener .@alemannoEU.

Ook bezorgd over onze democratie? Kom dan op 9 november naar @Ecopolis_be. Prof. Erica Benner spreekt er over haar boek 'Adventures in Democratie'.
