M. Ní Sídach<p>Even if we “Thanos Snapped” Trump and his Minions from existence, without a change in values, someone just like him will inevitably reemerge as a product of our quasi-religious faith in Social Darwinist Neoliberalism because he is the inevitable consequence of these beliefs, not the cause of our immiseration.</p><p>It Makes a Kind of Sense • The Trump Tariff Tier List<br><a href="https://sfba.social/tags/vLogBrothers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vLogBrothers</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/HankGreen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HankGreen</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Economics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Economics</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Corruption" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Corruption</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Egocentrism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Egocentrism</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/MafiaEconomics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MafiaEconomics</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/MafiaGovernment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MafiaGovernment</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/TrumpRegime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrumpRegime</span></a> <a href="https://sfba.social/tags/Project2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Project2025</span></a><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JuuGjRhSYE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=8JuuGjRhSY</span><span class="invisible">E</span></a></p>
Andreas Sternowski<p>I consider the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Vedanta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vedanta</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/worldview" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>worldview</span></a> to be a prerequisite for a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/sustainable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sustainable</span></a> future for the West. Why? Our worldview led us inevitably to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/materialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>materialism</span></a>. As a side dish, we got <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/egocentrism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>egocentrism</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/selfishness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>selfishness</span></a>. The result was ruthlessness in the expansion of the economy, in the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/exploitation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>exploitation</span></a> of nature for our selfish purposes. The root of our current problems lies in our thinking: in our worldview and our view of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/humanity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>humanity</span></a>.</p>
