The problem with Jeff Bezos' ideology is that it's based on a false premise. The idea that "six thousand years ago someone invented the plow" is based on a faulty belief that ancient humans functioned as individuals. They did not. Ancient humans were collectivist. The likelihood that one individual invented anything is slim to none. This is the myth of the genius. Archeological evidence demonstrates that for hundreds of thousands of years, early humans congregated around communal gathering places, like the fire, and engaged in problem solving and passing on of shared learning down through generations. Additionally, the plow (and tools like it) were developed by humans in Mesopotamia, Europe, Egypt, East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa as well as other places - not in one place by one person. This is known as parallel development. Believing that the plow was invented by one genius is like believing language was invented by one person. It is a silly myth and represents the projection of current moral standards onto past events. This is called 'presentism' and it is both an uncritical and ignorant way to view history. Social learning was the main driver of human evolution. Collectivism is how we both survived and progressed as a species. The myth of the genius is an example of uncritical analysis and a flawed lens used to justify the grotesque hoarding of wealth and obscene inequality that is currently tearing at the social fabric our species. It needs to be thrown on the trash heap of history.

"Birth tourism, birth tourism" Bro, if you have the agency, the balls, and the money to fly from Shanghai to Hawaii while 9 months pregnant just to have your kid on American soil, I want your kid to be an American

The last few days have exposed just how much of the left still carries a colonial mindset. A Palestine flag or a triangle in your bio means very little if your solidarity ends the moment Palestinians or other Indigenous peoples assert the right to define our own values, norms, and future. Decolonization isn’t just opposition to mass killing. It means Indigenous people reclaiming the right to shape our own society on our own terms, not having Western political, cultural, or social standards imposed on us all over again.
