This American Hate

I understand that many Democrat voters at this stage hate Republicans so much.  After all, their fundamental human rights are being attacked.  What I don’t understand though is how naïve Democrats are to not be able to diagnose the issue, what brought us here. They are supposed to be the "smart, educated" ones and they … Continue reading This American Hate

Why The Democrats Were Always Set To Lose

The problem with the Democratic Party is that it became consumed with defining itself as the opposite of Trump, rather than carving its own identity.  Usually when someone defines themselves based on someone else, it means that they’ve got nothing to say. And in this case, it also meant that they had something to hide.  … Continue reading Why The Democrats Were Always Set To Lose

It Is Time We Educate Children About The Coming Collapse

We live in a collapsing civilisation stepping into a cliff with its eyes closed.  Fascist hate-stirrers promise to magically extinguish inflation while ignoring what is actually causing it: a climate crisis with a lethal magic trick of its own: not only will food become expensive beyond belief.  It will vanish, as the audience suddenly realise … Continue reading It Is Time We Educate Children About The Coming Collapse

Truth Wars: The Bot Industry of Climate Denial

24 hours after the US election 400 of my X followers disappeared, and the list just keeps growing.  Fellow climate activists reported similar figures.  I guess all those bots aren’t needed now that Putin, Trump and Musk, with the help of Kamala and her BAU friends, have achieved their objective to put the climate crisis … Continue reading Truth Wars: The Bot Industry of Climate Denial

When Hunger Turns to Hate, And Global Capital Cashes In On The Spectacle (Yet Again):  The Tsakraklides View on the US Election.

The result of the American election exemplifies a pattern witnessed multiple times throughout the history of human civilisation.  A hungry and angry electorate will always imagine witches they need to burn and fascist saviours they desperately want to believe.  But this need for modern-day witches and false saviours reached a flashpoint in recent years, as … Continue reading When Hunger Turns to Hate, And Global Capital Cashes In On The Spectacle (Yet Again):  The Tsakraklides View on the US Election.

The Big Unconsciousness:  The Rain in Spain Has Come Here to Remain

As a desperate yet foolish humanity attempts to escape the fires and floods it set in motion, the likelihood is that it will follow the same ancient knee-jerk reactions it always has: looking for solutions in half-baked technology and “destroy-now, pay-later capitalism”, than look deep within itself.  Worse even, it will continue to set off … Continue reading The Big Unconsciousness:  The Rain in Spain Has Come Here to Remain

The Collapse Report: Food Is Set to Become the New Automobile in a Collapsing Industrial Civilisation

Germany, the world’s third largest economy, is spearheading the collapse of global industrial civilisation as its GDP is set to continue its contraction into next year with no end in sight.  This comes as no surprise given that Germany is the poster child for the most resource-intensive and old-fashioned industrial production model in operation: a … Continue reading The Collapse Report: Food Is Set to Become the New Automobile in a Collapsing Industrial Civilisation

The Extinction Report: Journey To a Disappearing Ecosystem

The silence was horrifying as we walked amongst huge ancient rows of beech trees bathed in autumnal sunlight.  Everything was so quiet that it felt almost unreal, like we had been dropped inside a postcard frozen in time and given permission to walk about for a bit before it all came back to life.  The … Continue reading The Extinction Report: Journey To a Disappearing Ecosystem

Rewilded: Free-Range Humans in the Post-Anthropocene

The very first thing which happens to a garden when it becomes abandoned is the sudden death of the most greedy, hybridized and mispositioned exotic ornamental plants.  Having been bred to only survive in industrial greenhouses under the control of precise environmental management systems, these specimens wither away within days or weeks.  Their culling is … Continue reading Rewilded: Free-Range Humans in the Post-Anthropocene
