El capitalismo o el planeta

Capitalism is destroying humanity. It is that clear. It even destroys it twice. First, it devastates countless lives through anguish and precariousness, putting the survival of a vast majority of individuals in the hands of two mad masters: the market and employment. Second, it wipes out the lives and futures of billions of people by making the planet uninhabitable: overheated, hyperpolluted, and exposed to all manner of extreme weather events and pandemics. We must accept this reality. And draw its unappealable consequences: 1/ as history shows, the capitalists (especially that 1% of the population that controls the vast majority of the world's wealth) will never admit their homicidal responsibility or renounce their boundless privileges; 2/ after forty years of neoliberalism, the social democratic space that served as a "containment" has been weakened to insignificance: the only alternatives today are aggravation or overthrow; 3/ therefore, the only transition possible and capable of saving humanity is outwards: towards something other than capitalism that guarantees our lives and the planet.
