In terminal-phase capitalism, the ruling class no longer even pretends it can solve the problems of society. The plundering, looting, and authoritarianism become more overt, and formal democracy is more brazenly extinguished in all spheres.

Donald Trump and his supporters invoked Pat Tillman's death against the current crop of NFL protests. The truth is more complicated than they want it to be.

The market is the problem.
The market alone cannot solve BC’s housing problem, particularly for low- to middle-income households says senior economist @MarcLeeCCPA. Major investments in non-market housing are needed, he explains. #bcpoli #bchousing.

It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of fossil capitalism. The B.C. Govt could end fossil fuel subsidies and raise the corporate income tax back to what it was before the BC Liberals, just for starters. #bcpoli.
Why #ClimateAction is critical, but basically doomed: "Big Oil doubles profits to $219 billion in 2022". they no longer care about "transition" #bcpoli #cdnpoli.

Happy Gorz centennial. Shame so much of the debate around the term he introduced ignores his vast body of work.
Feb. 9, 1923: Political and social philosopher André Gorz is born in Vienna. The naturalized French citizen was a leading figure of the 1960s New Left whose books explored liberation from work and an ethic of ecology.
