The Financial Times is basically the Guardian for people who like exchange rates and stock market indices.
One more time: Nobody has been "vindicated" by the Coronavirus. It does not refute, and it does not confirm any particular worldview.
It is not the case that countries which follow economic model X have done systematically better than countries which follow economic model Y.
If there are any success stories in this, these would be Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore.
Tell me more about how this "proves" that we now need to adopt socialism, or stop trading with China, or go back to the '70s.
Lol, Listen To A Poddie.

Kristian Niemietz shamelessly politicises stuff
@K_Niemietz
I see everyone is now accusing everyone else of "politicising" Coronavirus, or using it for "political point-scoring".
Couple of thoughts on that.
There is, of course, a huge asymmetry. We always think our political opponents are "politicising" events, and that they're being...
...cynical, manipulative, and disingenuous for doing so. But nobody ever thinks that THEY are politicising anything. What, ME? No, I'M just spelling out the obvious political implications!
Quite often, we just disagree on the extent to which something is political. Let's say...
...something bad, X, happens. Some of us will see X as simply an unfortunate event. It could have happened under any government, and it could have happened under any system. It has no major policy implications.
But others WILL see X as the result of policy choices.

Looks like "social democrat" is now becoming a slur, on the commie-Left.
Which makes sense. Corbo's commie outriders have long defined their idea of socialism specifically in opposition to social democracy.
People on what little remains of a non-communist Left in the UK try hard to blind themselves to this fact. But it's nonetheless true.
"Today, the radical left in the UK [...] is calling not for social democracy but for democratic socialism. [...] [T]he former means the taxation [...] of private enterprise, while the latter means the democratic ownership of most large corporations and financial institutions"

@K_Niemietz
The problem with commie marches is that there are too many trash groups trying to flog their papers, says trash group trying to flog its paper.
What's holding back the Revolution is that too many people are reading the Socialist People's Paper, when they should be reading the People's Socialist Paper instead.
The Socialist People's Paper claims that the Soviet Union ceased to be a True Worker's State in March 1927, which is revisionist nonsense aimed at delegitimising the just cause of the working class.
Obviously, the Soviet Union ceased to be a True Workers' State in November 1925.

It might be tempting to trade privacy/security/data for virus tracking, but historically when folks (usually white/cis/able bodied) decided price was "worth it", they weren't the ones paying the price.Thread on all the times marginalized groups paid the price without being asked

CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)
This is a roundup of what I found to be the most interesting & helpful sources on my journey into the void. #Coronavirus #Pandemic #Misinformation #CDC #CPP #WHO
This is for friends & family, but also to raise concern over media censorship & begin a discussion of what are best practices for both traditional & decentralized media outlets. This is a collection of sources to tell a larger story and spark interest.
Very few sources peer reviewed. Some behind paywalls. Some mainstream news. Some International News. Some in other languages (Use chrome). Some Harvard medical Journals. Some unverified. Some factually incorrect. Have some salt with your rice & beans.

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...
