A final pre-publication version of “Lex Capitaloceneae” is now available. In it, I argue that the formation of the capitalist #worldecology pivoted on the reinvention of natural law through Spanish civilizing projects in the 16th century #capitalocene academia.edu/125747036/Lex_C…

In this recent lecture, I outline #worldecology as the method & standpoint of the proletariat in the web of life. In contrast to ecosocialist & Marxist formalism, I propose we revisit and recuperate Marx & Engels' labor theory of life on the "real ground of history." #capitalocene #capitaloceno

Comrade Omar has once again put the matter clearly: the consolidation of monopoly capitalism required a new "soft power" infrastructure of class rule in the imperialist centers. This was later exported to Europe via the cultural Cold War. With their epicenter in the United States, these were the billionaire foundations, the forerunners of today's non-profit industrial complex.
Así es. A inicios del siglo XX, el capitalismo monopolista generó excedentes masivos en manos de la burguesía industrial estadounidense, lo que llevó a la creación de fundaciones como la Carnegie Corporation (1911), la Rockefeller Foundation (1913) y la Ford Foundation (1936).1/3

When NY taxed the rich, the number of millionaires *grew.* Tax flight is a right-wing myth. The only people leaving NYC in droves are working & middle-class New Yorkers who can't afford to live here.
If Zohran Mamdani wins, several billionaires told me they'll leave NYC—or at the very least spend more time outside it to avoid city taxes. “It only takes a handful of successful people to leave to decimate the city’s tax base," said @BillAckman (who plans on staying in NYC)

Yaron Lischinsky was not even Jewish. He was a crazed Christian Zionist freak who volunteered to serve in the Israeli rape-army and then did propaganda for them at the embassy. This makes calling this an "anti-Semitic attack" doubly deranged and actually the height of anti-Semitism by conflating Israel and non-Jewish Israelis with all Jews. And of course the entire media and political class is doing it with utter glee so they can launder genocidal Zionist propaganda.

Thrilled to share the publication of my undergraduate research in Angewandte Chemie! Incredibly grateful to have learned from this incredible group of scientists and to have worked alongside them to develop next-generation proteomimetics. #ChemTwitter onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Within days of assuming top role, CU trustee-president Claire Shipman personally intervenes to terminate the appeal process of disciplined students and workers, including Grant Miner, shattering any illusion of due process.

Accumulation of wealth at one pole is, therefore, at the same time accumulation of misery, agony of toil, slavery, ignorance, brutality, mental degradation, at the opposite pole, i.e., on the side of the class that produces its own product in the form of capital.
