Why are we seemingly stalled on the removal of fossil fuels, despite the fact that they have destroyed our climate, and are destroying humanity itself?

Maybe it's because they receive a free $13 MILLION PER MINUTE from our governments!

Fossil fuels being subsidised at rate of $13m a minute, says IMF

This is just billionaire tech bros trying to buy themselves more power and make themselves wealthier in the process. Why don't we simply tax them at 90% of their total income and use that revenue to house the unhoused? #TaxTheRich #NoBillionaires #California #SolanoCounty #Housing

Unless you're rich, you've noticed how hard we're being screwed on grocery prices. Those BASTARDS are pocketing MILLIONS per day, and my friends and family are stealing or starving. Fuck that.

Sign this petition to force the Canadian Government to put a freeze on price increases for essentials.

Enough is enough! Fight back!

Have you ever gone out to see a concert in an upscale downtown, only to be attacked by a dozen riot police? I have.

Got to visit the local windfarm while shooting a music video today. Couldn't help but get a fan-boy selfie! We *can* do it!

I was in the same room as a billionaire the other day. I don't think I've recovered.

In 2019 Blaine Higgs used $5,000 of public funds to fly to Saskatchewan to hang out with Andrew Sheer and speak as a former oil industry executive about how doap oil is.

I want him to pay that back before he resigns.

The man is a multi-millionaire, and we have homeless children.

I'm have a new #writing project, highlighting #nbpoli as well as #stories from my life in #newbrunswick, my travels around #canada and the #usa with rock 'n roll #bands, #backpacking photo essays, #electronics projects, #proAudioTraining etc. I'm all over the place!

I've recently taken to #gardening and am having a great time #learning and #growing.

I'm a voracious auto-dactyl; constantly absorbing about our present and our *real* past.

I am strongly #anticapitalist and want #noBillionaires.

Can you feel it? The working class is just a little bit less exploited today.

First they raised their prices so high people started stealing to survive. Then...

Send some love to the people in Richibucto, fighting a stinking polluting company that breaks the law daily, ruining their community. The corps in this province do anything they want and no one stops them.

higgs' own party has turned against him two sittings in a row now. He might force an election - we will have a chance!

Fossil fuel companies are literally destroying our planet, every day. No one will stop them. Here's some more peer-reviewed proof that won't make a fucking difference.

hey, why don't we all start protesting and occupying fossil fuel producers en mass, everywhere, all the time? I have a god damned ENORMOUS oil refinery in my town, as well as a power plant that burns "bunker c" oil. why do any of us allow it? we can't allow it. where's the spirit of the French people when their rights are mucked with. This is EVERYTHING living on Earth we're talking about.

it will never stop unless we stop it.

We need to call out this behaviour and put end end to #forprofithealthcare. Like, yesterday.

'Succeed: theory. Prosperity argues capacity. Win in the lottery, and behold! you are a clever man. He who triumphs is venerated. Be born with a silver spoon in your mouth! everything lies in that. Be lucky, and you will have all the rest; be happy, and people will think you great.'

'Gilding is gold. It does no harm to be the first arrival by pure chance, so long as you do arrive.'

12 chapters into Victor Hugo's 'Les Misérables' and he could be referring to any contemporary, moneyed-up chump you care to mention.

'Success; that is the lesson which falls drop by drop from the slope of corruption. Be it said in passing, that success is a very hideous thing. Its false resemblance to merit deceives men. For the masses, success has almost the same profile as supremacy.'
