Responses to this have been extremely positive! If you haven't watched yet click to learn about greenwashing imperialism, Musk being a horrible little weasel, and how corporations can sue states for lost profits

Once again got Carl Benjamin and his collection of Nazi shut ins after me on twitter

NEW VIDEO! Green Colonialism - I talk about how the "green transition" is re-creating the colonial and imperial dynamics of the current fossil economy. Focusing on the Middle East and North Africa region and Bolivia. I also shit on Musk a fair amount www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOTs...

Wrote a quick script about JD Vance's attacks on Scotland, Scotland's terrible abortion laws, and international collaboration of the far right www.patreon.com/posts/jd-van...

Going live in one hour! Shitting on Elon and much else youtu.be/BOTsTc9tdoQ?...

This piece is excellent. I'm looking forward to reading the book it is in conversation with. IMHO a good companion to the article is this video from @johntheduncan.bsky.social:

New Video on green colonialism is up for patrons now! full video will be live for all on Sunday www.patreon.com/posts/122817...

New video! written with our buddy @johntheduncan.bsky.social! looking at how all of these "pro-family" politicians are just using their kids as props to push their increasingly fascist agendas. youtu.be/YaYtAGK_QmE

tune in and hang out with John if you can do the math on what 8pm British time is in your specific colonial outpost.

Will be going live at 8pm tonight. Gonna drink some wine, talk about "woke" and universalism and play some tunes www.youtube.com/live/ohjjwZg...

Dismissing "woke" or "idpol" on universalist grounds is one of the things annoying me more and more these days. There's, ironically, more than one way to look at universalism. This first, used by the "anti-woke" left and the Jacobin, abstracts political subjects from any context

Counter-counterpoint: this is stupid

Me when half of the self-described leftists in the public space begin openly pandering to racists

For many in left media and academic circles, the most important thing about the "anti woke" "ant-idpol" moment is that it's an opportunity to sell loads of books

Myself and Megan Thee Stallion are the same age. Just one of our countless similarities!

We're Dnd-ing now

New Script up for patrons now! This one is about how colonial dynamics, and international finance are shaping and inhibiting the transition to a green economy www.patreon.com/posts/green-...

Picked up some second hand books (Rodney aside)

I think on top of this it would be nice to just burn oxbridge to the ground

honestly: a minor solution to the PhD funding crisis would be to remove all funding awards for Oxbridge — and make them fund their own PhDs from their enormous investment portfolios — and disperse that money among post-92s.

It does seem a bit mad that US state capacity is being gutted by 4 racist 20 year olds on a discord server

Elon Musk seems like the sort of guy who'd have gone absolutely feral for the "compare the meerkat" adverts in 2008

Finally put up the map from the LotR premier I went to a whole back
