One year after our original essay appeared, @astra.bsky.social and I are thrilled to reveal the North American cover of our forthcoming book END TIMES FASCISM - and the Fight for the Living World. On bookshelves Sept 15th and now available for pre-order. Canada: is.gd/RNravu US: is.gd/U3nR3H

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge. As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do. They can't keep spewing carbon. They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying. They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

It was a joy to interview @mollycrabapple.bsky.social at the launch her magnificent book "Here Where We Live Is Our Country" last night at the NYPL. Video of our conversation is up now. She was transcendent. www.youtube.com/live/tTEo6wU...

I greatly enjoyed this conversation on one of my favourite podcasts (an underappreciated one, IMO). It starts out about AI but it's really about fighting fascism.

he did it!

It's going to be a very hard summer for so many people and so many species. We can already feel here in BC, with the weak snowpack currently washing down mountains because of an unseasonable atmospheric river. The only ones doing well are the oil companies, with their record war profits.

"Just months before, I had said to a friend, ‘I think there is going to be an AI-psychosis-fuelled mass shooting soon.” That's what Karen Hao said when I asked her about the horrific school shooting at Tumble Ridge. One of the families is suing Open AI. Min 48 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1B_...

folks should subscribe to Brad's newsletter. He's been right for a really long time. hillheat.news/subscribe

happy to be able to share the full video of my discussion with Karen Hao last week. AI has entered its lethal phase, embedded in illegal wars and mass shootings. We deserve democratic spaces to debate this for-profit dystopia. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1B_...

With @karenhao.bsky.social and 1400 friends at Vancouver's Chan Center. So much interest in her brilliant book Empire of AI. We went deep on gen AI's impacts on warfare, climate, labour, colonialism and psychosis. Heavy, but lots of love and determination in the room.
