Never forget that the clowns who are currently saying “we can’t stop climate change, just accept it” are the same people who spent the last decade doing everything possible to prevent us from stopping climate change. 140.3K views · 9.3K likes · 2K reposts · 273 replies Open on X →

Today in 1962, Nelson Mandela was arrested by apartheid police, with support from the CIA, for resisting white minority rule. He was imprisoned for 27 years. US government agencies listed Mandela as a "terrorist" until 2008. https://t.co/9tRvwChf8e

This grotesque headline is from the Telegraph. 3,000 people in Britain have been killed in heatwaves this year so far. 20,000 in Europe. Even if Britain did get to “embrace Mediterranean life”, what about the actual Mediterranean, what do they get to embrace? What about India?

Right, the boycott should apply to all of Israel. It is an apartheid regime that is carrying out a genocide of the Palestinian people and this fact is clear for all to see. Genocidal apartheid regimes should absolutely be isolated. 40.5K views · 2.3K likes · 569 reposts · 34 replies Open on X →

15) Finally, there is a debate occurring within the degrowth community about politics and strategy. Here I argue that socialism, and socialist political movements, are essential to achieving the transformations that degrowth advocates call for: https://t.co/q2vZe3ghpv 8.1K views · 108 likes · 19 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

14) Ecological breakdown is being driven mostly by the states and firms of the imperial core, primarily to the benefit of their elites. Here we provide a summary of recent data on atmospheric colonisation and ecological imperialism in the world-system: https://t.co/uJYrCyOpYq 2.9K views · 87 likes · 12 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

13) Has extreme poverty really plunged since the 1980s? New data on the basic-needs poverty line (BNPL) shows that global extreme poverty increased dramatically during the neoliberal reforms, particularly in the 1990s, before gradually recovering: https://t.co/DGMD1CDrLt 8.3K views · 99 likes · 21 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

12) Western states use sanctions as a tool of imperial power, to strangle Southern economies. Here we report on a recent study calculating that unilateral sanctions imposed by the US and EU have caused a staggering 38 million excess deaths since 1970: https://t.co/1zpaOl1y0P 3K views · 95 likes · 21 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

11) Here we argue that the climate crisis cannot be solved within capitalism, because of the nature of the capitalist law of value. This inertia can be overcome through socialist policy, which can enable us to achieve rapid decarbonisation: https://t.co/Dnj9I4G3fb 3.3K views · 101 likes · 22 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

10) Turning to short-form writing, here we argue that Western aggression toward China is due to the fact that China's development is pinching Western profits and undermining the imperial arrangement on which Western capital accumulation depends: https://t.co/Ijq7gbvpXh 3.4K views · 103 likes · 25 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

8) Asking for debt "forgiveness" is a dead end. The only way to deal with the imperialism of the debt system is to undertake collective debt repudiation, as part of a broader strategy to increase economic sovereignty.

9) Here we show that Europe's industrial policy is inadequate to address the crises Europe faces. We argue this problem can be solved by integrating ecosocialist and post-growth insights, to align production with social needs and planetary boundaries: https://t.co/yxbMXOO4k9 3.6K views · 90 likes · 11 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

7) Here we describe how ecomodernist visions and "green growth" scenarios rely on fundamentally imperialist assumptions in order to maintain capital accumulation and high resource use in the core while reconciling this with ecological objectives: https://t.co/x62XHZqQHe 3.6K views · 101 likes · 14 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

6) In this brief study we show that as the imperial powers imposed structural adjustment programmes on Africa, Africans were forced to consume less while their surplus resources were transferred out to the capitalist world economy effectively *for free*: https://t.co/ikkhVwKYeJ 4.2K views · 113 likes · 23 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

4) Here we developed a progressive framework for green industrial policy that can enable us to (a) scale down ecologically harmful industries; (b) organise production more directly around human needs and public benefit; (c) work toward global justice: https://t.co/cFPTElmTjX 4.9K views · 110 likes · 17 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

5) This study explores unequal exchange in the global agri-food system. We found that global agricultural production is increasingly performed in the South, but global food-system income is increasingly captured by post-farm activities in the North: https://t.co/t8MJsy1yvD 4.3K views · 101 likes · 15 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

3) In this study we found that global capitalist growth misallocates resources toward countries that already have more than enough, exacerbating ecological pressures, while 50% of countries suffer from too little resource use to meet basic human needs: https://t.co/abkjmGcuZz 5.5K views · 128 likes · 23 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →

2) We assessed public backing for eco-socialist transformation in the UK and US, and found it enjoys strong majority support in both countries: 72% in the US and 82% in the UK. We also tested how different labels affect people's support: https://t.co/x5wTotptKn 6.5K views · 108 likes · 19 reposts · 2 replies Open on X →
