  • Endemic violence is completely related to the fascist regime. It’s one of the reasons why the US is such fertile ground for fascism

  • So sedition it is then.

    Let’s block all private US tech services. No more X, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI. Nothing of real value would be lost.

  • Good step, but we need to go further. Kick out all US companies. Block all big tech services, kick out McDonalds, oil companies, accountancy firms, block import of all General Motors cars. No more Apple stores, sorry. Block sales of microchip lithography machines. Close their factories and nationalize them.

    Then, for good measure, dump all US bonds the ECB holds.

    Thén have a talk.

  • This graph claims to be based on IEA numbers. Let’s say that’s true and the numbers used are correct.

    Then this graph says that between now and 2050:

    • oil use will remain more or less stable
    • natural gas use will increase
    • coal use will half
    • nuclear capacity will double
    • solar will multiply about 9-fold
    • wind will increase about 5-fold
    • the rest will stay more or less static

    Keep in mind that energy usage across the board is increasing daily. And this graph assumes that to be and remain true up to 2050. So this is NOT a degrowth scenario, nor even a no-growth or static scenario. Visual Capitalist, indeed.

    Given those assumptions, it makes sense that even significant growth in solar and wind will not dent their share of the total that much. For solar to equal oil in this scenario it would have to increase almost 21-fold against the end-of-2024 graph baseline, and to replace all fossils it would have to grow about 50-fold. Wind would need to grow with it, because solar and wind need to more or less go together. If we stick to the ratios of this graph, then wind would need to grow about 30-fold.

    It’s clear that the authors of the IEA report are firm believers in ‘business as usual’. Kiss your climate goals goodbye. And your big coastal cities.

    Then again, how would a world look with 50x as much solar panels and 30x as many wind farms? Or a world without ever-increasing energy usage?

  • No worries! The US government is standing by to bail out all all of Trumps overleveraged donors friends, using money that has yet to be printed, paid for by you, the taxpayer. With your money, your savings, your healthcare, your education.

    And then they will blame the left for it.

    I guarantee it.
