What a world. #Capitalism "externalizes" costs to the point where the costs are "externalized" into our own bodies.

Bonus Episode: Ariel Chats With Aislinn Clancy, Green Party of Ontario Incumbent
In this bonus episode, Ariel talks with Aislinn Clancy, Green Party of Ontario candidate and incumbent MPP for Kitchener Centre in the upcoming snap Ontario Election. This isn’t an endorsement, but a discussion that hopes to prod solarpunk talking points into the realm of politics. Aislinn and I talk about Green Party of Ontario goals for clean energy, supporting local workers, and how to channel your passion for social justice issues that you care about into empowering activism.

@dedicto@zeroes.ca@MediaActivist This time around, I actually DID vote for #KamalaHarris, and even donated hundreds of dollars to her campaign, in a last-ditch attempt to stop #SprayTanHitler, #CommanderVance, and #FelonMuskrat. Nevertheless, I recognize the truth of what you say — that past uncritical support for #neoliberal careerist #JackassParty candidates like her has paved the way for fascism. And in the past, under other, less exigent circumstances, I've repeatedly voted for (and contributed to) #BernieSanders in the primaries, and multiple #GreenParty candidates in the general elections.
The #JackassParty has KILLED HOPE by refusing to halt the bloodsucking of the economy by the billionaire class and by corporations — even in Obama's first term, when they had a filibuster-proof supermajority in the Senate. If fascism is to be stopped, economic radicalism is not a luxury, but a necessity.

I seem to have had alot of new followers in the last week or so.
Many of you won't know but I set up a petition on #38degrees in October last year!
This is something I am passionate about as a #greenparty member, and as a rational human being 
Please if you are following me and are UK based, and also feel that this is just common sense,
Please click the link below and sign the petition.
Thank you in advance
38 DegreesCompulsory Solar panels on all new developmentsOUTRAGEOUS: The Government could bow to pressure from building companies to weaken a promise that new houses will be built with solar panels. Sign the petition demanding the Government stick to its guns:
If there's anything shows promising is the Mountain Party of West Virginia, who's affiliated with the #GreenParty, have gained 8.46% membership registration while the #Democrats got -3.82% registration.

Plus it's leaders are good at heart, like Dylan Parsons' sharing a tweet by (★☭MassStrikeNow☭★) @strike_dr on the Green Party saying: "Working on it".

Postponement of democratic elections
Gloucestershire Greens say the Gloucestershire County Council elections in May must go ahead, for the sake of public trust in local democracy.
The county’s Green parties – Stroud District, Forest of Dean, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Cotswold and Gloucester – say the Conservative administration’s proposal to postpone the elections for a year is “undemocratic” and “must be resisted”.
The Conservatives want to postpone the elections to focus on fast-tracking the government’s plans for ‘devolution’ – the abolition of 164 district councils and 21 county councils across the country, with power moved to new and larger local authorities.
Adrian Oldman, joint coordinator of Stroud District Green Party, said: “Given the Conservatives’ current wafer-thin majority on GCC, they are likely to lose control in May. Their attempt to postpone the elections seems opportunistic, manipulating the system so they can cling on to power for another year.
“It is undemocratic, unnecessary and totally unacceptable. If the elections are postponed, or maybe, cancelled, these seemingly inevitable proposals for supersized councils will be pushed through by councillors whose terms will have expired. The elections must go ahead for the sake of democracy.”
Cheltenham Borough councillor Tabi Joy commented: “Even though this reorganisation would have profound effects on our communities, neither residents nor councils have been consulted. There has been no opportunity for any formal debate or vote on the matter. But if councils refuse to cooperate, the changes will be forced on us by the government. We have no choice but to engage with the process and try to get the best possible outcome for our residents, businesses and local democracy.”
Adam Shearing, coordinator of Gloucester Green Party, added that postponement of the elections would unfairly delay the election of the two additional Gloucestershire county councillors proposed almost two years ago (March 2023) by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England. “The LGBCE deemed that people in Gloucestershire are already under-represented in terms of the number of county councillors. A postponement would be unfair in that it continues the democratic deficit for yet another year.”
Greens support genuine devolution, but say the proposed reforms would take power away from local communities. Dr Clare Turner of the Cotswold Green Party said: “Everything points to ‘devolution’ being forced through. It will steal decision-making power away from local people by placing power in the hands of vast councils, remote from our communities and controlled by central government. This can only undermine local democracy, leaving communities feeling even more powerless, further eroding trust and confidence in politics.”
At Tewkesbury Green Party, coordinator Matt Dimond-Brown called the reorganisation “an outright attack on local democracy”, saying: “Middle-sized towns will be wiped from the political map in this gerrymandering exercise, and rural areas will see power moved further away, held by fewer locally elected representatives.
“This isn’t about genuine devolution or even increased efficiency; Labour’s primary purpose is to remove ‘the blockers’ and drive growth. They want to take power from elected councillors and give it to developers.”
Tim Rickard, joint coordinator of the Forest of Dean Green Party, pointed out that the Government’s proposals face opposition even from inside the Labour Party. The belief that they were about “destroying local democracy” and imposing “nothing short of a dictatorship” was among the issues that led to 20 councillors at Broxtowe borough council in Nottinghamshire resigning from Labour to form a new Independent group.
He said: "The local elections in May must go ahead so that voters can choose who represents them as these massive changes go through. Instead of colluding with the Labour government to scrap the elections, the Conservative County Council must allow voters to exercise their fundamental democratic rights."
The county’s Green leaders will be writing to their MPs to ask them to ensure May’s elections go ahead as planned. Greens believe in bottom-up politics, informed by those directly involved, and will do their utmost to protect our communities and local democracy through this process.

Clearly the Greens stand apart in this survey. The populist left?
However, all these MP's support and use the services of transnational and technocratic corporations whose interests they all support. For many this was their route to power.
Recent events show that these corporations are now in control of our domestic political agenda.
What are we going to do about it?

@maddler@mastodon.ieSo, the #Irish #GreenParty essentially #annihilated itself, by the look of it, paying the price of serving as FF/GF Government wedge with very little power, if any at all.

Hopefully it's not news to anyone that TERF ideology is present within the US Green Party. Still, pretty crazy for a VP candidate to openly express those views. But I guess no worse than stating that an abortion ban at 16-weeks is "reasonable".

Even if ineffective, this is speaking truth to narcissism.
"A coalition of European Greens [in 16 countries] have urged the US #GreenParty’s nominee, #JillStein, to pull out of next week’s election and endorse Kamala #Harris…'The US Greens are no longer a member of the global organisation of Green parties,' they wrote. 'In part, this fissure resulted from their relationship with parties with authoritarian leaders.'"
