The crazy 'left wing city' of San Francisco just made staying in your RV in the city in one spot for more than 24 hours illegal. Only one supervisor voted against it.

And defunding or reforming the cops? Not with an increase of $27 million in additional funds.

Looking forward to reading this when it’s out:

Bourgeois coldness by Henrike Kohpeiß

'Bourgeois coldness refers to an affective strategy that offers an explanation for how self-preservation works. Bourgeois coldness is one of the most advanced affective and aesthetic forms of preserving the structure of the colonial status quo. It creates an affective shelter in the world, unencroached upon by the immediate consequences of its many catastrophes. It functions like air conditioning – a complex technology which reliably stabilises the climate until those inside consider it natural. Bourgeois spaces – institutional and affective – stay cool and pleasant. But outside it’s burning.'

and while the West believed the fairy tale that #Socialism would take away your freedoms, #Capitalism confiscated your homes, stole your pensions, took your savings, sent your jobs overseas, took away your health care, broke up your education system, and put you in debt, leaving you with fascism, racism, xenophobia, and hatred.
