It’s been brought to my attention that the Economist cover story is blaming Gen-Z socialism on “an influential group of socialist academics” led by @isabellamweber.bsky.social. Turns out Gen-Z got radicalized by … our analysis of corporate earnings calls. Huge if true!
Quote from the article: “An influential group of socialist academics provides the intellectual ballast for these views. The work of Isabella Weber of the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, suggests that businesses' pricing power means that the modern economy serves executives and shareholders better than it does ordinary people. In a paper last year Ms Weber and her colleagues analysed companies' earnings calls, finding that many firms took advantage of inflation to
"protect or even increase profits".”

“I graduated with £42,000 of debt and even though I’m paying it off, it’s now £72,000.” It's truly an abomination: On a normal job you keep paying forever. 40 years! “Why would I trust a government that mis-sold me a loan when I was a child?” is a very good question. www.ft.com/content/7bf5...

🚨New article🚨 Why has the promise of universal ownership been broken, as @benbraun.bsky.social has suggested? Our argument: because the Big Three are hardly universal. They mainly invest in those that can insulate themselves from environmental harm - big tech & financials in the Global North. 🧵
