This is a vast oversimplification. While it may be true that someone's problems aren't singularly caused by a specific billionaire, the resource stealing by a large amount of billionaires directly cause the hollowing out of the welfare of the rest of society.

Take for example the russian oligarchy. They've gotten rich mainly from resource grabbing and stealing from the commons. Their wealth belongs to the Russian people, who can trace a lot of their problems directly to the fact that a few people are billionaires.

I read a book by Swedish social democrat Daniel Suhonen and wrote some comments on it, if that's the sort of thing you're interested in it can be read here: rpettersson.substack.com/p/a… (In English and Swedish).

theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0… it's wild that we're still arguing about whether facism is a correct description, because A) hasn’t it been kinda obvious for a long time now and B) it doesn't even matter because we can define facism however we want, the definition has never been fixed.

Yes, It’s Fascism

Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

Finishing up covers for print by making the entire jacket can be very satisfying. I really like making an image wrap around the entire spread. #bookdesign

According to Milton Friedman there "ain't no such thing as a free lunch", but that's a neoliberal myth. In economic terms a free lunch is called "rent".
