This broke my heart. “Why would one of the richest men in the world commit such an act of injustice?” Halimi asked. “Sometimes I think that if Elon Musk himself were fully informed about this matter, he would likely be deeply ashamed.” Feeling shame @elonmusk @natecavanaugh?!
On the left: Nate Cavanagh, a 28-year-old DOGE staffer and college dropout. On the right: Mohammad Halimi, a 53-year-old exiled Afghan scholar. This is the story of how DOGE targeted Halimi on social media. Then the Taliban took his family. 🧵
@tran_scends stay safe! This is just heart breaking.

Why I Always Vote: my response to the irresponsible and astounding oped by Matthew Walther in the @nytimes linkedin.com/posts/marinago…
"Mathematica Research compared people who had received job training under the 1998 law, now known as the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, with a randomly selected control group. Thirty months later, the training had zero effect on earnings." theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

“Foresight tools can help social sector orgs become future-ready: turning them into sensing and sense-making entities.” Marina Gorbis (@mgorbis) of @iftf outlines how #foundations and #nonprofits can use futures thinking to ensure a more equitable world: ssir.org/articles/entry…
@nataliefoster recommend @vanishingcorp article on shareholder capitalism as a suicide pact medium.com/imagining-equi…. When most of the population is invested in the stock market, social change is difficult. People who pushed for pension privatization knew that.
It’s Time to Tax the Billionaires nytimes.com/interactive/20… Today, the superrich control a greater share of America’s wealth than during the Gilded Age of Carnegies and Rockefellers.That's partly because taxes on the wealthy have cratered.
Time--number of hours per day--is one invariable in our lives and we are remarkably consistent in how we spend it (unless we eliminate sleep, in which case all bets are off!) linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
@AnandWrites @JosephEStiglitz Karl Polanyi: Market economies create market societies.
Congratulations to a visionary, a movement maker, and one of my favorite collaborators @nataliefoster on publishing her much needed book! You can listen to my conversation with Natalie here soundcloud.com/institute-for-…
What could our society be like if we guaranteed income, free public college, affordable healthcare, good work, homes, family care, and even an inheritance? You can read about what’s possible– & already happening today–in The Guarantee by @nataliefoster. #TheGuarantee
"Capitalists don't want market economies, where they have to compete with one another, eroding their margins and profits – they want a planned economy, like Amazon, where Party Secretary Bezos and his commissars tell merchants what they can sell and tell us what we must pay" !!!
Combine Angelou's "When someone shows you who they are, believe them" with the truism that in politics, "every accusation is a confession" and you get: "Every time someone accuses you of a vice, they're showing you who they are and you should believe them." 1/
@roybahat I am in the same place--extreme sense of disorientation. I think this is the only humane place to be right now, rather than in a place of certainty and self-righteousness. 💔💔💔

"AI could create situations where workers might retain their jobs, but critical aspects of their roles that they find enjoyable or meaningful could be replaced by technology, leaving them with tasks that feel tedious or alienating." iftf.org/projects/three… A must read!
"A company must be, first, a platform for human contribution if it is to be anything else at all." It shouldn't be a "corporate blender." nytimes.com/2024/03/21/opi…
