“We’ve been here before.

This is not the first end of the world. Many worlds have ended.”

“The question ‘Where was God at Auschwitz?’ marked perhaps the biggest crisis of the Christian faith since the demise of the first Roman Empire. The numbers of the Nazis’ victims and the highly organized manner of their execution are unfathomable.”

~ Ibid., pp. 131, 133

“We might stop this wave of authoritarianism.

We might rebuild some semblance of democracy and social order. I hope we will.

Even so, the world we are inhabiting is collapsing. Authoritarianism is a symptom of the crisis, not its singular cause.”

~ Ibid., p. 130

"Indifference is consent to what is happening. Inaction is a choice to leave it unchallenged. Under conditions of injustice and violence, there is no neutrality, only active resistance or enablement.”

“More important than being a hero is choosing to not go along."

~ Ibid., pp. 69-70

"Not speaking out does not make you neutral. It makes you a bystander. The main moral difference is not between perpetrators and victims but between those who choose action and those who look on. Bystanders enable cycles of violence and systemic injustice to go unchecked. No system of oppression can succeed at scale without bystanders."

~ Ibid., p. 69

“The Nazis never were in the majority. Those who simply ‘went along’ were absolutely critical to the regime's success.”

“It is easier for you to speak up and stand out if you see others already doing so. So, find these others. Run with them.

Let their examples strengthen your resolve.

Then, be such an Other for others, in turn.”

~ Ibid., pp. 68-9

“Oppressive politics target the most vulnerable before they turn to the population as a whole.”

Marginal spaces. Here a small shallow loch in a unvisited nature reserve is home to many species, including dragonfly larvae.

Yorgos, ermite à Matala (Crète), se tient devant la grotte qu’il habite.

Un homme à la barbe poivre et sel, pieds nus, se se tient appuyé sur une grosse pierre: le tête tournée vers la droite de la photo: il regarde en direction l’entrée de la grotte qu’il habite. Au loin, de hautes montagnes.

- The #tech industry's innovation narrative is often #overhyped, as even successful companies like #Facebook, #Google, and #Amazon have had #negative #societal #impacts.
- The low #capital and #marginal #costs of software and web companies have made it relatively easy for them to establish first-mover advantages and maintain stable profits, protected by government-granted #monopolies. (4/5)

En surveillant en permanence les émotions cela réduit grandement tous risques de manips, enfin faut pas trop quand même sinon c'est à la marge du collectif que la vie se déroule. et parfois c'est pas rigolos.. du tout.
#Marginal

A #modest #proposal...

For any #company which lays off 1% or more of their #staff in a given fiscal year, all #executive #bonus #income or other #compensation besides base #salary and health benefits shall be taxed at a #marginal #rate of 100%.

The tax shall be repeated in the following year, regardless of #layoffs. If more layoffs follow, it is extended until a full fiscal year without layoffs passes.

The proceeds are split 50/50 between government and the laid-off employees.
