Working my way through the podcasts of Pluto Press, Radicals in Conversation https://plutopress.podbean.com/ Don't feel for the podcasts on the far-right now, more in the mood for solutions and inspiration.

More of what we want from the #RadicalLeft

Donald Frump just accused the "Radial Left" of hacking his phone.

Which is silly. We're way too busy for all that. And honestly I can barely remember how to get into my own phone most days.

Alvin Bragg is OBSESSED with Donald Trump! 🙄 If he spent this much time and energy actually prosecuting violent crimes... I guess George Soros would demand a refund! 🧐

There is no #radicalleft in the US today.

-Radical left would be: nationalize the fossil industry and banks, with all profits distributed to citizens.

-Radical left would be: all wealth of over $10 mil per person is taxed at 100%.

-Radical left would be: No private contributions to political campaigns. All elections publicly funded. Voting is mandatory. One person, one vote, abolish the electoral college, and the malapportioned Senate, and use computer-drawn districts of equal size, shape, and compactness.

-Radical left would be: Everyone who has an oversized truck not used for work pays a $5,000/year climate tax on that shit! And no new gas and diesel light truck sales to private individuals. Work trucks only--unless zero-emissions vehicles!

-Radical left would be: Tight rationing of fossil-produced energy. If you don't have solar panels or buy 100% renewable power, you don't get to have fucking air conditioning!

-Radical left would be: You have 30 days to turn in all guns and ammunition at your local police station, or be arrested. No exceptions.

-Radical left would be: One plane flight per year per person. Additional flights levy a $1,000 climate tax per flight.

-Radical left would be: Hard executive pay caps of $1 mil per year, including any profits from stock they might own in the company.

-Radical left would be: No second homes, or profiting from rental property, until/unless everyone is housed.

-Radical left would be: Free medical care for all, including dental, vision, and hearing, and universal basic income/citizen's dividend for all citizens.

-Radical left would be: Every worker belongs to a union and through union reps, participates in company management.

-Radical left would be: aggressive trust-busting and breakup of monopolies like Amazon.

-Radical left would be: No inherited wealth. 100% inheritance tax.

-Radical left would be: No private profiteering on any public service including health care, education, utilities, or prisons.

Some of these might be good ideas, some less so. But in terms of radical left, we're not even in the ballpark! Yet Republicans still accuse us of being "radical left" for saying that whoever gets the most votes wins an election, and that people shouldn't die from gun violence, or for lack of food, housing, or health care.

What #etically interests me about #antisemitism is that it's a) panchreston and b) extremes of both the #ExtremeRight & the #RadicalLeft tend towards it, the former more than the latter.

Been reminded that someone uploaded an audiobook of my first book Shock Doctrine of the Left using a Stephen Hawking-esque computerised voice, if you wanted a weird way to read it

https://youtu.be/dDLvLBqVnSQ

It's on #activism and #cybernetics / #complexitytheory basically!

(There's some diagrams in the last chapter which I dont think are included, just so you know)

Hey #radicalLeft, any #bookRecomendations I can find on audible or as free audiobooks/podcasts? I'm down to just popcorn for listening at work and looking for meatier stuff. Share whatever, I'm looking for contemporary, foundational and core works, the 101 and 102 level stuff. The ones you wish someone had recommended you when you were just starting your journey.

@nikkisumrow As a 67yo elder statesperson, I can say that we need more feet on the ground in these states. When we touch grass, Arkansans post "I am #radicalleft." Texans deliver petitions. Kansans reject extremism.

There are 8+ million people in this organization wearing red tees. Use us.

Namaste, moms.

Why would I put #CW on #political posts when I'm at a #RadicalLeft instance?
