I've just been listening to the Guerrilla History podcast about Workers Movements in the Global South
https://guerrillahistory.libsyn.com/ness
It's an interview with Professor Immanuel Ness about his book https://www.plutobooks.com/9780745.../organizing-insurgency/
You know all that stuff about how AI will replace us all, and there will be no jobs? How there's some Paul Masonite tech utopia where everything is automated?
It's a load of crap.

Benjamin Abelow's 'How the West Brought War to Ukraine' is a vital corrective to 'mainstream' misreporting of the Ukraine war. The e-book version is just 59 pages long - a must-read.
