This Ordinary Abundance site (ordinaryabundance.com) is making the rounds so it’s probably a good time to inform you that the people behind it are billionaires and ex-Facebook folks, etc.:

coefficientgiving.org/funds/ab…

As lovely as that site seems it’s actually propaganda. The real message is “be grateful for all that capitalism has given you and stop trying to stand in our way as we pursue infinite growth on a finite planet for the enrichment of a handful at the expense of everyone else.”

(Not shown in that lovely house are the lack of universal healthcare, the homeless people on the street outside, or the bombs paid for with your taxes that are being used to commit genocide as we speak.)

This is why I read @pluralistic He's so good at succinctly summing up important high-level concepts and then connecting them with the current problems we face.

@PhilipCJames What’s the ROI on privacy laws these days? Has anyone done a market study?

In Spain is quite impossible to rent any place for long term since the owners of apartments and houses prefer to rent for tourists: short term, more money. But who are these owners? Spanish, Catalans…

Same Spaniards or Catalans would prefer to employ immigrants for a lower pay and no paperwork since it is more profitable for them. Money is a lot stronger of an influence than culture.

"After years of hype, and trillions of dollars, the AI boom will leave us with a captured economy, a corrupted democracy, and a devastated environment. We’ll be told that this is just how markets work – sometimes they go up, sometimes they go down. But this narrative obscures how decisions are really made in capitalist economies"

Chilling read on the AI boom from Grace Blakeley.

Of course pretty much all products in Catalonia come from abroad: food, clothes, cars, electronics. I cannot name a single product that is Catalan made. Same goes for Spain overall or any other tribe. Their phones, the apps they use, the knowledge they have, research, even media, everything either comes from outside or is remixed from outside.

So what is so unique about your tribe?

Aaron's "crime" was to oppose enclosure and socialise knowledge, where #Meta aims to enclose knowledge in order to enrich billionaires.

Aaron died because he was anti capitalist, and America kills people who oppose #capitalism.

America opposes freedom.

I needed something send to people who aren't aware of the issues with #AI but couldn't find anything comprehensive and authoritative enough, so I compiled a page of links that hopefully can provide enough evidence... 🚫🤖
