Why Sam Bankman-Fried's allegedly wanted to buy island nation -

Failed crypto exchange ’s alleged plans to purchase the nation of Nauru are typical of the wealthy’s doomsday fantasies, experts say.

"This form of escapism [...] involves seeing places such as Nauru as a kind of malleable blank slate — never mind the people who already call them home.

“At the very least, these fantasies are about superiority..."

I don't know why the myth of being deforested to ecological collapse for the pointless ritual of putting up big heads is still being peddled about when provides a much better and non-mythological example.

Here we have a tropical paradise that was strip mined to ecological oblivion by the greed of outsider capitalists and their willing compradores. It is a tale of capitalist greed laying waste to a complex ecosystem for the short term gain of the few. It even has the good old sub plot of promises that the spectacular wealth from the phosphate would fund the impossible project of ecological restoration. Sound familiar?

Oh, I do know why the Easter Island myth gets peddled, racism. It easy for white people to think that indigenous people are stupid but pure and reveal something about the human condition that is masked by modern, European sophistication. It is hard for us to think that our cultural sophistication isn't anything but naked greed and brutality.

From the slave ships, through the Pacific Phosphate Company, to Royal Dutch Shell, it is the Hobbsean ideology of the European bourgeoisie that remains. That is what we need to struggle against if the whole earth is not to go the way of Nauru.

@davidgerard and Amy Castor report on the developments of the FTX opera buffa, including hundreds of millions flying all over the place, the effective altruists' plans to let 99.999999% of humanity altruistically die while they are altruistically holed up in their bunker, and a lot more: davidgerard.co.uk/blockchain/2

Hey!! I forgot sailing 8000 kms to Nauru & back was using wind power! Yes, we traveled whole distance with wind in our sails. Batteries we had were recharged by solar energy. The power unit was donated to us by Rainbow Power in Nimbin. That's how everyone sailed for millenia.

Going through some files & found the first poster we had for the Flotillas of Hope in 2004. Matt made the poster. He was our website IT geek hero member of our ground crew.

And if that doesn't make you cringe, imagine being the person who dreams of buying the sovereign nation of , one of the countries most at risk from climate change, which already faces draught and sea level rise, to "escape from a hypothetical apocalypse". Or, you know, prison time.

And in your fantasy scrapbook, the prosecution finds your plans for setting up a lab there for human genetic experimentation.

Sounds like a worse punishment than tbh..

Sadly I think you missed a step. " got away with it, so we will as well".

Australia had with it's somewhat challenged population able to be guided into violence against our refugees. We had Island with its locals and police able to bring violence and death to . We had a insisting on referring to illegals.

Britain has as a direct result of what our tories did to refugees.

The British have a history of , theft, and genocide or at least attempts at .

Apples never fall far from the trees which birth them.

Most Australian have a measurable percentage of .

Why?
