I am not one of those weak-spirited, sappy Americans who want to be liked by all the people around them. I don’t care if people hate my guts; I assume most of them do. The important question is whether they are in a position to do anything about it. My affections, being concentrated over a few people, are not spread all over Hell in a vile attempt to placate sulky, worthless shits.

Once again, markets are crashing and taxpayers are bailing out wealthy insiders. It's time we reform this perverse social contract.
I used Instapaper to bypass the paywall. This is a good article with sound ideas for the future.

“It is even possible that, if we want to be equal to the absolutely new tasks ahead, we will have to abandon decidedly, without reservation, the fundamental concepts through which we have so far represented the subjects of the political (Man, the Citizen and its rights, but also the sovereign people, the worker, and so forth) and build our political philosophy anew starting from the one and only figure of the refugee.”

Record companies sue Charter because providing high-speed internet contributes to piracy
A new complaint against Charter Communications filed on Friday by Sony, Universal and Warner asks for legal redress for Charter’s alleged failure to disconnect people repeated accused of copyright infringement; the complaint specifically lists the provision of a higher-speed tier of internet service as evidence that Charter was profiting from infringement.
Charter is one of America’s bloated, corrupt, terrible telcoms monopolists; thanks to their lobbying and monopolistic practices, disconnecting someone from Charter’s network often means disconnecting them from the internet altogether (remember, 100 million Americans live in areas where every single ISP has admitted to violating net neutrality).
The record companies are seeking household-level disconnections from a service that is crucial for conducting life in the 21st century, on the basis that someone within wifi range of those homes might be listening to music the wrong way.
This lawsuit is a wake up call: the monopolization of the telcoms sector combined with the corruption of copyright as a tool wielded by giant corporations against individuals (as opposed to a regulatory framework for the entertainment industry’s internal negotiations) represent a kind of late-stage-capitalist existential threat to human thriving itself.
We need to break up Big Telcoms, Big Tech, and Big Content. This is a ghastly slow-motion train wreck and we can’t afford to ignore it.

Fes el Bali is the oldest walled part in the city of Fez, Morocco. With a total population of 156,000, the area is believed to be the biggest car-free urban neighborhood in the world due its narrow streets that are only two feet wide in some sections.
