"The #WellbeingEconomy is an umbrella term for an alternative to #neoliberal capitalism. It's not just one thing.At its core, a wellbeing economy is an economy that explicitly places all people, all living things and our planet at the centre rather than the other way around."

The Seagull Knows: Notes on a Constipated Discipline

The opening moment of the workshop on Methodological Strategies for Real-Life Theorising was unintentionally profound. A story of a seagull crieing above the glass façade of the Blavatnik School of Government - a building that stands as a temple to the #deathcult of the last 40 years of #neoliberal culture. In hindsight, that seagull metaphor may have been the wisest participant at the event.The sessions that followed offered a painful reminder of just how entrenched and constipated […]

I was gonna share a screenshot of a football match I'm watching, because I think one of the teams has very nice kit colors, but I'm on Windows right now and screenshotting it leads to a black window - no doubt because of some DRM crap somewhere in this shit OS.

God I hate neoliberals and their capitalist bullshit :blobcatfluffangry:

Not sure if it's in Windows itself or in the AMD drivers or in the browser (firefox) but either way it's some freedom infringing bullshit and I can't wait for this whole system to come crashing down as it no doubt soon will

Merz' erste Antwort auf die Frage "Was ist drin für die Jungen" im neuen Koalitionsvertrag? (Bild Talk vom 13.04.)

Na herzlichen Dank! Wie wir wissen, profitieren Arbeitnehmer*innen immer am meisten von einer "Flexilibisierung" des Arbeitsmarktes...

‘We talk of ‘the failure of the state’, but the #neoliberal state is broken by design.

It’s failures are engineered, grounded in an insistence that government cannot - and should not - solve our problems.

It’s not supposed to work.’

George Monbiot and Peter Hutchison

Suomen julkinen velka 1980 - 2025

Finnish public #debt 1980 to 2025

Kokoomus is the center-right neoliberal party, who always put on #austerity and say they’re doing it to ”get rid of the problem of debt”

I bet this story is the same everywhere else: If you look at what they did when they were in power, they almost single-handedly created the problem to begin with.

The most fluent liars of them all are the smiley-faced center #neoliberal #right. 👿

"You'll own nothing and like it", #tech people have said for decades.

It's only when the #neoliberal parties of the world realized that #LineGoUp would jux the numbers to show "growth" that we see companies become even more emboldened.

GamesRadar+ · Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version "to access a decade-old, discontinued video game"By Dustin Bailey

#TheAmericanFascist uttered this morning.

“I’m proud to be the President for the workers, not the outsourcers; the President who stands up for Main Street, not Wall Street; who protects the middle class, not the political class; and who defends America, not trade cheaters all over the globe.”

The left wing social democratic forces of the world (including the #Liberals and #NDP in Canada) have been so neutered and brow beaten into incrementalism and neo-Liberal corporate capture, that a right wing, billionaire-wannabe, near-Nazi fascist, and politicians who want to be like him (Pierre Poillievre) have stolen the rallying cries of working men and women (but mostly men).

These were the warnings working people and socialist forces screamed when Free Trade and privatization was born by Reagan and Mulroney, Thatcher and Chirac. The de-unionization of western economies, the decimation of public infrastructure for private “partnerships”…

Now here we are, it all got so bad that the regular person, struggling to put inflated food on the table, or put their children through inflated college, are so fed up that they submit to the regressive, racist, anti-human, bloviations of populist tyrants.

A pox on you, “Liberals” and “Democrats” of the world.

You chose corporations while you placated people with false promises and false hopes.

You enabled the worst of the human condition through complacency and greed.

Your limp, unconvincing defence of Liberalism and Democratic values destroyed both.

What will you do to win back the podium to speak for working people? Perhaps you don’t deserve to.

I admit it... I was trying to find a video that confirmed my bias and I finally did it!!. I don't know you, but I feed off those stupid self centered neoliberal quotes like " my needs come first" or " I don't owe anyone anything"...etc. And the idea of someone thinking they are empowering themselves while actually being selfish as fuck. This is gold guys, a fresh air in a polluted virtual (and real life) atmosphere of hyper-individualism

1) Dismantle neoliberal ideology. The author proposes that something more humane ought to replace the neoliberal ideals that have taken hold in society. She sees an important role here for politicians, educators, and artists to push back on outdated ideas.
