Tech companies are crying that Americans aren't buying new phones fast enough to keep the economy stimulated. Wages have been stagnant for, what, 44 years and you've got the gall to keep raising prices and cry we're not buying enough?
I don't think you should reward this shit with a click but, in case you must, I've got a barely tweaked URL to save you the trouble I already spent looking up the article.

THIS IS IMPORTANT!
because if wages have been stagnant for 44 years, that means people have been going into #debt, using credit cards to buy what they can’t afford.
make it a priority to not use your credit card for the next month. can’t pay cash? don’t go into debt. stick with that phone or computer or car for as long as you can.
the less you use your credit cards, the less #billionaires we will end up having.
starve the #oligarchy of our debt.

"When #billionaires own major media outlets, “news” becomes something closer to state messaging. Not because the government controls it, but because the financial class that funds political power also owns the platforms that shape public perception."

The greediest man alive.
@simon_brooke I'd argue this is where class analysis becomes particularly important. The government should be seen as an extension of the class that holds power. Under capitalism, both the government and the media represent the interests of the capital owning class, and thus there is no need for the government to control the media. They're both instruments of the oligarchs.
@yogthos so long as the rich are able to make larger political donations than the poor, the rich will continue to own all those political parties which have enough funds to effectively contest elections.
This is how 'liberal democracy' is supposed to work — the political parties feircely contest with one another over issues which don't affect the #kleptocrats, but maintain careful unanimity in opposing anything which could undermine the #billionaires' power.

Simplicity is on Europe’s digital menu 🍪
Our new Digital Package could save businesses €5 billion by 2029 and boost AI-driven innovation.
Here’s how ↓
📘 Simplified rules on AI, cybersecurity and data

@EUCommission Let me simplify your post for you: selling our privacy and data to #billionaire henchmen of a rapist, who is making deals with #Russia about us, behind our backs? Or is it just enabling #billionaires to launder more money in the bubbling #AI bubble?
