Peter Stern was born in Nuremberg in 1936, a German Jew. His father died in the Holocaust; he and his brother somehow survived Bergen-Belsen. Today he's protesting what's happening in America. "I came to say that something as nasty as that can happen again, and it can, without me saying something."

it's absolutely insane that iphones are designed to last 2-3 years tops when you consider how much embodied labor and extracted resources go into each one and that 200 million are produced every year

I wrote about how billionaires’ position in society and the role they play make them fundamentally different than the rest of us. They exist as economic and political entities in ways that are entirely inaccessible to everyone else. Link: www.jphilll.com/p/billionair...

The ruling class benefits greatly from the popular misconception that government mismanagement is the result of stupidity and incompetence rather than actual malice. People would be a lot angrier if they knew that all of this was being done to them on purpose.

I feel like these protests are a highway to a dead end. Community organizers should be helping rally-goers to find an off-ramp to do something other than yell at an empty building.

Do you know what would be “efficient”? The U.S. cutting its $850 billion defense budget. It is larger than the next 9 countries combined. Want to cut costs? The U.S. could withdraw its 800 international military bases and 170,000 troops around the world.

Masking discourse is on again and I’ll just say if you see people masking when few others are it’s likely because they’ve determined that for them, in that setting, the benefit of not catching (or spreading) whatever’s going around is worth the cost of masking. It’s rarely more complicated than that

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business. Nature is us.
