Someone posted this documentary of a coal miner strike in Harlon county Kentucky in the 1970s in a different subreddit. I found it to be absolutely fascinating and a great snapshot of what it's like to organize and fight for workers rights.

Especially cool are all of the folk songs included, some sung by the original authors, about labor organizating and what it was like working in the coal mines. Highly recommend it.

I know, it is a controversial opinion xdd I think yesterday when he was commenting on 2.5T$ being wiped out, he said that we need to go back to the barter system or gold. Soo, why is he playing to the right-wing libertarians' tune? Is he Peter Thiel fan right now?
I do not even know whether he was saying this jokingly or not., But this is playing into the strategies of people like Peter Thiel or Prospera guys, like Patri Friedman. The gold standard was the main neoliberal proposition. The teacher of Mises started this line of argumentation. LOL.
So should I consider Hasan as a kind of intellectual fast-food or a guy who is doing more harm than good?

Reacting to Speeds China stream, Hasan spoke about BYD and their subsidies from China, has anyone got links for articles on this topic or China's green subsidies for EVs in general? The more academic the better as I'm writing about the role of the state/sustainable development using BYD as a case study at university

It is what it is.Grannies for the win.
