I would like to take a moment from slaying multinational technocratic monsters -- rhetorically -- to offer my sincere thanks to all the readers that support the work I do here.
Whether you're a paid or unpaid subscriber, I consider you all my brothers and sisters-in-arms.
The well of my non-political content writing work (my "day job") – about honeybee cultivation, solar panels, teaching English as a foreign language, etc. – has been running a little dry lately. I have a sneaking suspicion it might have something to do with the ongoing AI revolution that's eventually going to displace most, if not all, human labor.
All that to say: If you have the means to make a $5/month recurring donation or however you'd like to do it, now would be an awesome time.
In the past, I put some content behind the paywall. But upon reflection regarding the ethics of it, I decided not to do that anymore. So if you don't have the money or don't want to offer any financial support for whatever reason, no worries: all my stuff will always be free from here on out.
¡Viva la Revolucion!

Thank you Ben. Your work is good. I read pretty much everything you post. Money is tight right now. Trying to send a grandson through school on Social Security Income and take care of my 74 year old body, wife, etc. Will contribute to you in the future. Write something about the recent Thai election. From what I know, the American money had a huge part in it.
