Anti-communist panic has become a feature of the ‘no’ campaign over the Voice referendum. This ABC investigation shows that some circles are reviving an old Australian League of Rights book claiming that Aboriginal Land Rights were a secret communist plot. www.abc.net.au/news/2023-09...

once heard ridiculous apocrypha that the similar, lesser used London slang “nang” once referred to a specific person: a now legendary girl of Vietnamese origin idolised by her classmates in north London and beyond

On the one hand, China is not smoothly top down and technocratic -- vertical and horizontal fragmentation abounds. But on the other, this is interesting. Add to the (quite large) file marked: FT being more open to straightforwardly discussing leftwing economic arguments than most would expect

Not a romantic exclave tail that wags the geopolitics. Couldn’t be clearer really

update: it’s pretty good! haven’t played with all the AI features much yet but it’s finding loads of recent episodes that Overcast for some reason had been missing

Sam Geall @samgeall.bsky.social · 08/07/2023

hadn’t heard of that one, cheers. will take a look

Have Overcast users (@samuelwade.bsky.social ?) found that some podcast feeds no longer update? Any reason why? And what’s the best alternative app?

Perhaps the relevant differentiation is “response” to climate change vs *leadership*. IMHO the first test of climate leadership should be solidarity with those most affected, and the more specific we can be about what that looks like, the better.

putting aside control of the upstream (mining), i don’t think we should underestimate how difficult it would be to relocate or onshore a massive, energy and capital intensive, polluting industry like refining, which operates on incredibly thin profit margins

it’s a good episode in general. not somewhere i’ve ever really thought about visiting but he explores some interesting sides of the place

Globally, less than 1% of foreign aid to address climate change goes directly to Indigenous peoples and local communities, or projects to support their land tenure and forest management. chinadialogue.net/en/climate/new-di…

Hello, it’s me. Follow me for climate, environment, political ecology, global affairs. And hopefully other curiosities, weird obsessions, friendly conversation. I gave up engaging on Twitter during the first lockdown and didn’t look back really, but hope this might be a more collegiate environment
