@drewsof.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialI got to talk to @tajjaisen.bsky.social for this piece! I just watched a man flinch as I told him that the price of Mark B. Smith's EXIT STALIN is $49.99! The timing is uncanny! (Here's hoping publishers are reading this and thinking about how to do something, anything, because NF *is* in trouble!)

@jakemgrumbach.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialNew working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment.
@lrb.co.ukReposted by @astra.bsky.social‘If we’re looking for soldiers goose-stepping down the streets, that’s not the fascism of our era. We’re in an era of automated weaponry and influencers. This is not the Fordist fascism of yore.’
@astra.bsky.social on fascism in the time of AI, on the podcast:
@naomiaklein.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialSome thoughts I shared while in the UK, where Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband has acknowledged that anti-genocide protestors "were right" but activists are still serving long prison terms for stepping in where their government failed.

@astra.bsky.socialShould have cut!
@lrb.co.ukReposted by @astra.bsky.socialOn the podcast: @naomiaklein.bsky.social and @astra.bsky.social join @adamshatz.bsky.social to discuss what fascism looks like in the age of AI, and why we have reached a point where tech billionaires declare they are ‘unapologetically on Team Humanity’.
@astra.bsky.socialDamn you were there?!??
@dbonowitz.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.social"Fascism surges in moments of real material crisis." Another (maybe the best) reason to design for reliable recovery, not just immediate safety.
@naomiaklein.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialAs Churchill famously said, we shall debate fascist semantics in the New York Times, we shall debate it on Channel 4 News, we shall debate it on the BBC (coming soon)... We shall never surrender!
@katieholten.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialSally Hayden is in conversation with Naomi Klein & @astra.bsky.social re END TIMES FASCISM: And the Fight for the Living World 🔥
Then, Sally’s touring the US with her book, This is Also a Love Story: Searching for Good in a Divided World. If she’s at a bookstore near you—go! I wish I could!
@rbreich.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialCould the bipartisan AI revolt help us prevent end-times fascism? Here's what my friends Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor think.
@astra.bsky.socialWow what a nice review.
@naomiaklein.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialI just saw a film about the AI-enabled apocalypse. Only it's not science fiction. It's not even in the future. It's in the present. The film is called NAZA. See it.

@astra.bsky.socialvery fair. thank you!
@astra.bsky.socialA few days late on the draw, but I'm still totally floored by this. True thanks to all who have read, spread the word, shaped our thinking, or put up with me when I'm deep in the writing zone. And the biggest huzzah to my amazing co-author and book tour buddy @naomiaklein.bsky.social
@casmudde.bsky.socialReposted by @astra.bsky.socialMy broader take on all three German state elections and why focusing only on the success of the far right is both incomplete and self-defeating.
