We can move beyond the capitalist model and save the climate – here are the first three steps | Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis

theguardian.com · Feb 12

Capitalism cares about our species’ prospects as much as a wolf cares about a lamb’s. But democratise our economy and a better world is within our grasp, say Jason Hickel and Yanis Varoufakis

A great article by @jasonhickel.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy and @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy. But I do wish we could all stop using the wolf as a metaphor for the worst kinds of human behaviour. Wolves are wonderful creatures, endlessly maligned - and also victims of capitalism. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

How can we reform capitalism?

Well Jason Hickel & Yanis Varoufakis suggest three key steps:

1. re-engineer finance; penalising investment for destructive private investment & prioritise public investment for public goods;

2. democratise public & private budgeting decisions;

3. democratise corporations; wrest control from the elites & put it in the hands of workers.

Its as simple as that.... well, OK not simple, but you can see what they're getting at!

#capitalism
“an economic system that boils down to a dictatorship run by the tiny minority who control capital – the big banks, the major corporations & the 1% who own the majority of investible assets”
#politics #inequality #democracy
Solutions

1 penalise destructive private “investments” and enable public finance for public purposes

2 use deliberative democracy extensively to decide sectoral, regional and national goals

3 A Great Corporate Reform Act to democratise corporations, favouring & promoting the formation of companies run along the lines of one employee, one share, one vote.

Oh dear, Varoufakis and Hickel are now also #hopium dealers:

"We can move beyond the capitalist model and save the #climate: There are three necessary conditions".

Nope, we can't and won't, and your 3 conditions are as realistic as me turning straight.

They’re dying in the streets.

US citizens have been shot and killed.

These are just the deaths we know about.

Then there’s the deaths you won’t hear as much about.

The disabled. The vulnerable. The homeless or anyone labelled “expendable”.

Never forget that fascism and eugenics go hand in hand.

My latest is about Wael Tarabishi, a 30 year old disabled US citizen who relied on his father for full time care.

ICE grabbed Maher when he showed up for his yearly immigration check in.

Wael pleaded for his release. He told ICE he would die without his caregiver.

They didn’t care. Wael died three months later.

His dad never got to say goodbye.

His story deserves to be told.

ICE ensured his last months were filled with unnecessary pain and suffering.

Funny How It Became ‘Revolutionary’ When A White Skater Did A Backflip A Black Woman Mastered Decades Ago

Surya Bonaly, une patineuse noire, fait des backflips en atterissant sur un seul pied. Les jurys avaient déjà décidé que c'était interdit, "trop dangereux" askip.

30 ans plus tard un homme blanc fait la même chose. "Révolutionnaire !" s'écrit tout le monde.

L'ignorance blanche ça se construit comme ça. Je ne sais pas si "l'ignorance masculine" existe en tant que concept mais la mécanique est la même. Un processus volontaire de non-mémorisation pour normaliser la supériorité, et par là la suprémacie.
