"The total [...] delay was calculated to be 50,856 hours. The vehicles affected were calculated to number 708,523. The economic cost was calculated to be £769,966, without [...] the cost of policing." thecritic.co.uk/the-just-stop-…
"While there is a right to protest, [...] [p]rotesters do not have carte blanche to behave as they wish [...]
Those rights fall to be balanced against [...] the rights of members of the public to go about their daily lives safely and without illegal interference."
"The road is a major part of UK infrastructure, affecting the lives of countless people. The group [...] had intended even further gridlock. Hallam hoped that the “whole motorway” would fill up [...]

Finally, the media takes a stand against the bourgeois, late-capitalist, white supremacist, Islamophobic and transphobic tool of oppression known as "writing your own stuff".
And so does Twitter. Image

"The ground is being prepared for a new political upsurge, which the lessons of the last period could potentially lift onto a higher level than Corbynism." socialistparty.org.uk/articles/11053…
"We are in the midst of the biggest waves of strikes for over thirty years [...]
Many of those striking were first politicised by their experiences of Corbynism. [...] The hero status of Mick Lynch [...] gave a glimpse of the power of the workers’ movement"
"The Socialist Workers’ Party (SWP) [...] evade this vital question, [...] as they have during the whole Corbyn era. [...] They conclude that if Corbyn stands outside of Labour they will support him, [...] but it avoids saying anything about the issues actually being posed."

"...the difference between a militant French working class with the willingness to assert its rights on the streets [...], and its benighted British counterpart that would rather remain tied to its master by bonds of subservience and deference."

"How else to explain the fact that at the same time the French are out in the streets [...] creating havoc [...], millions of Brits are preparing [...] street parties in celebration of the coronation of King Charles on May 6?"
"[T]he mass bleeds, [...] it is being robbed and exploited [...]
[T]he mass itself is responsible for this horrible state of affairs. It clings to its masters, loves the whip, and is the first to cry Crucify! the moment a protesting voice is raised"

Hickel.
He unironically quotes Hickel 😭😭
Hickel is a charlatan who peddles trendy nonsense for cheap applause and status.
Example: He claims that current poverty measures don't work for pre-capitalist times, because most people were small-scale subsistence farmers, who didn't have a money income: They just...
🧵
...consumed what they produced. So if you say they earned <$2 a day, this is meaningless, because they didn't "earn" anything - they just farmed.
However, people who apply current poverty measures to, say, the 17th century are, of course, aware of that and correct for that. So...

how cool is that Image
Wondering:
Could it be that Twitter has already been entirely replaced by AI?
Could it be that I'm the only real person left here, and that this is all just a gigantic experiment, the aim of which is to test for how long I'll keep going until I notice it? Image
Otto. They're coming for you. Image
