"The Libertarian Forum, edited by Murray N. Rothbard from 1969 to 1984, had a small — even tiny — circulation but it forged the intellectual edifice known as #libertarianism. Month after month, the newsletter thrilled, enlightened, shocked, and awed its subscribers. Everything was on the table. And here are all the issues again, as smart, gossipy, and fresh as they were when they were first written." mises.org/libertarian-forum-19 #rothbard #capitalism #liberalism #theleft #theright

Li Andersson, MEP of the Finnish Left Alliance party, gave an interview to the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation regarding the #UkraineWar and Trump in the US.

tl;dr: it makes me happy we have a firm, morally consistent, sharp-witted and brave MEP like Li Andersson

Andersson notes that Europe should not be dependent on the US, and a mistake by the European left has been not to develop a credible European defense alternative.

She also notes that the hypocrisy by European countries regarding the war on #Gaza has been astounding. And Andersson is right: our calls for a rule-based international order don't seem credible, if the rules don't apply to all. In #Finland, the Left Alliance and Andersson have consistently critiqued the #GazaGenocide in addition to the Russian attack on Ukraine.

A sense of urgency is rising as parties on the extreme right and left may be able to block defence spending when Germany’s new parliament convenes.

Although there aren't many original/surprising takes on the Russian war in #Ukraine in this interview to my great relief Mr #Žižek (whose interpretations of the classic Hollywood cinema I very much enjoyed) stands on the right side and finds the right words:

Note: It took nearly a full 24hours for the CBC to pick up on the #Democrat #Republican hashtag issue we were all experiencing and reporting on on Monday night. Nice work #Fediverse!!

"Social media users noticed searches for #Democrat, #DNC and other related terms like #TheLeft were not returning any results for at least several hours, while searches for terms like #Republican, #RNC and #TheRight yielded millions of posts.”

"Dann Downes, a professor of information and communication studies at the University of New Brunswick in Saint John, says the hashtags being hidden on Meta platforms so soon after Trump's inauguration suggested it was no coincidence. "

#TheLeft: Instagram bloqueou pesquisas do grupo europeu da Esquerda: Quem pesquisar pela hashtag #TheLeft nesta rede social de Zuckerberg recebe em resposta um aviso de que os resultados foram ocultados por se tratar de “conteúdo sensível”. O mesmo tinha acontecido nos EUA com as hashtags #Democrat e #Democrats. A Meta diz que está a tentar corrigir os “erros” com as hashtags políticas. esquerda.net/artigo/theleft-in

The left's Puritan streak strikes again.

Kamala Harris ditched Joe Rogan's podcast interview over fears of progressive backlash. When Sanders went on Rogan (who came as close to endorsing him as possible), he faced an avalanche of criticism.

The left would rather be right than in power.
