Dr. Professor Fred Rococo

@GhostOnTheHalfShell I'm just finishing watching this. It is so illuminating.

#Followers, consider setting aside 2.5 hours to watch this. #MichaelHudson's speaking style doesn't quite match the expanse of his wisdom, but the wisdom shines through. He does fumble a bit with 'automatic intelligence,' but comparing #AI to the #mechanization of #labor and #Marx and #Ricardo is spot on. There are SO MANY valuable ideas in this talk. It is disruptive. We are not taught how the systems of #politics, #economics, #SocialSciences and #religion have an overall organization in western society, but he ties it together. Break it up if you have to, but watch this talk.

Original text of the Lord's Prayer:

"Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors."

The inversion of #Christianity in the #Catholic Church to become the origins of the modern #banking system is a mind-altering re-teaching of history.

#GlobalWarming = #debt. 🤯

“In the lead-up to the 2022 election, Labor promised a review of the scheme. Two years and two federal elections later, it remains in place. “The idea that a Labor government would do nothing at all to right this wrong is utterly mystifying,” said Winton. (Source: The Conversation)

This is about the clusterfuck called #JobReadyGraduates and the immense damage the #Morrison from marketing govt caused to our #TertiaryEducation system and the irresponsibilty our current #Labor govt is showing with the length of time it is taking to repeal that policy. Sure, it’s complex legislation (meant to be by #LNP to ensure its legacy is felt for many years).

This is only one issue, though an important one, which has to be dealt with. Another is the lack of funding resulting from the flawed #Corporatisation and #Managerialisation of Universities.

#AlboPM better get a move on or face growing anger at his inaction. We cannot allow the #UniversitiesAccord report to gather dust. The 20% reduction (only one way to look at the reduction, because there are lower estimates) was an electoral carrot. It worked, apparently, but now we need to see how clear-sighted #JasonClare really is.

America is built on prison labor. When will the labor movement defend prisoners?

“Incarcerated workers are a part of the working class,” award-winning journalist Kim Kelly says. And we are “not telling the real history of labor in this country if [we’re] not focusing on the organizing efforts and the labor of people who are in prison.”

#ZoeDaniel with a shot across the Govt’s bow in The #Guardian:

“There’s no question it’s complicated, practically and politically. But arguably, Labor has six years in power ahead. That’s a decent runway.

And pragmatically, three-quarters of millennials and gen Z voters, now the largest group of Australian voters, named climate change as an important consideration for the 2025 election. By 2028, there will be several hundred thousand more of them. And they’ll expect something beyond more “intergenerational bastardry”.

I, for one, expect better this term from our #Labor Govt on #Environmental policies and legislation. The #Woodside licence is NOT A GOOD START!
