On Democracy Now!, I floated a new theory: AI companies really have unleashed a killer monster that has slipped their control. But plot twist - the monster is human. And it's the President of the United States. @democracynow @astradisastra

But is it fascism? Do they really yearn for apocalypse? Isn't that polarizing? Shouldn't we be nice to them? We made a short video so folks can hear the end timers in their own words and judge for themselves: www.youtube.com/watch

Sometimes it's best to see and hear the elite death drive for yourself. So we made a short film to go with our new book. I have a feeling the algorithms won't like this one... www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/sep/13/na...

Open AI has hired Chuck Schumer's daughter to help them with government relations. I don’t like it one bit, and this kind of thing is a big part of the reason top Democrats have done such a poor job of turning the Trump family’s far more extreme corruption into an election issue.

In our new essay for the @FT (you read that right), @astradisastra and I link the extreme weather events we have all been living through to the rise of a new iteration of futureless fascism, wherein the rich and powerful plan for their bunkered survival behind fortressed borders.

If there is one message I’d like folks to take from my wide-ranging conversation with @davidrkadler from Progressive International it is this: the Trump Administration is not incompetent and buffoonish about everything. When it comes to flipping Latin America to the Mafioso hard…Mostrar mais

Here's @davidrkadler with a terrifying story about how tech oligarchs are trying to create their own start-up city-states, including in Latin America, and how far they are willing to go to protect these private fiefdoms. Honduras is Exhibit A.

Key takeaway from my wide-ranging interview w/ @davidrkadler from Progressive International: Because Trump has been so inept and buffoonish about so much, we risk missing the fact that when it comes to flipping Latin America to the Mafioso hard right, Marco Rubio's State Depart…Mostrar mais

I wrote this piece 8 years ago to explain another Trump victory. It's now common sense, but I think we need to dig deeper to figure out what to do next. www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/nov...

Feelings don't care about your facts. This is going to be a deep dive into the role of conspiracy culture in building the Trump coalition. When needed structural change isn't on offer, conspiracies are doppelgangers/substitutes of the real thing.

Dems have spent the past 8 years destroying the one movement that could have saved them. Bernie's class first populism won over exactly the type of voters (Latinos, working class, bros, Joe Rogan!) that Dems now repel. www.dropsitenews.com/p/bernie-would-have-won

It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

Donald Trump literally said "Islam hates us," promises to ban Muslims again from entering the U.S., incited racist hate against the only two Muslim women in Congress, and told Netanyahu to "finish the job" in Gaza... and these guys are endorsing him *as Muslims*. Madness.

The entire population of North Gaza is at risk of dying.

We had @NaomiAKlein on Bad Hasbara @mostmoralpod talking about how framing antisemitism as the worst bigotry allows Israel to justify its atrocities. 1/3

17 Brown University students will reportedly face conduct violations for sleeping in their Gaza Solidarity Sukkah. “Every year on this campus Jewish students sleep in sukkahs without incident. We believe we are being treated differently because we…are standing with Palestine.”

Powerful truth from Laila Soueif about her son's illegal and unjust imprisonment in Egypt: if the UK government used its leverage, Alaa, a dual UK-Egyptian citizen, would be free. This mother's life is in their hands, and so is her son's. #FreeAlaa

This edit does not convey my full point so here's the whole segment. I am not a fan of the Harris campaign but we absolutely must take Trump's threats to "the enemy within" seriously. It can always get worse. Much worse. www.democracynow.org/2024/10/22/naomi_klei...Mostrar mais

Beautiful piece on Arundhati Roy by the great Naomi Klein. archive.is/4rVxV

still carrying this with me. An incredible group of organizers at Brown University.

They’re setting fire to the hospitals in northern Gaza so that civilians cannot return. This is the definition of a scorched earth campaign aimed solely at erasing civilian life.

By all reasonable definitions, this is ethnic cleansing.
