Clarity on the Mass Line and what is the purpose of talking to people? [federation relevant] (hexbear.net)

I thought it might be a good time for me to write up a actual post about mass line. Both cuz it’s a bit of a nebulous concept and typically not defined in its entirety and that it can hopefully help explain to people what use this whole like “federating to onboard cool people” idea has....

Carbon credit speculators could lose billions as offsets deemed ‘worthless’ (www.theguardian.com)

The analysis, published on Thursday, found that 18 big forest offsetting projects had produced millions of carbon credits based on calculations that greatly inflated their conservation impact.

he’s probably referring to this …wordpress.com/…/china-consumption-or-investment/

tldr chinas quarterly growth has slowed and liberal economists are claiming china’s miracle is over. private sector investment has shrank 0.2% for the first time since data collection in 2005 but investment by state firms has expanded 8.1% in the same period. there’s also a current global manufacturing recession. doesnt mean “its over” or whatever tf they’re saying but interesting to note.

youve got a lot of spunk for somebody who doesnt really know what they are talking about. China has 56 recognized and protected ethnic minority groups where scholars are creating alphabets for minority languages that had not been previously written as a way to preserve their languages. How many indigenous people in the US and Hawaii can even say that they speak their language after having had them systematically destroyed for decades?

neoliberalism is a function of capitalism’s contradiction of requiring constant exponential growth. in an infinite timeline neoliberalism will sadly completely consume any semblance of “social democracy”, and you can already see even the classic european social democracies are beginning to eat away at and privatize their welfare states.

other people are also pointing out unequal exchange, which is a critical concept to factor into the equation when trying to understand where the wealth of the european social democracies come from.
