*Biden Should Revive the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights.*

"Centrists" are criticizing the wrecker for not putting the US ahead of other countries in the queue for a second batch of doses of Covid-19 vaccine.

Meanwhile, the wealthy countries generally are buying up the vaccine production for next year, leaving the poor countries to wait till 2022.

Instead of letting the Pharma companies (and their servants, the patent offices) set us against each other to squabble about which country will get vaccines first, let's turn our criticism on the system of monopolies that is limiting production and helping some companies to gouge.

Why there should not be patents on drugs or anything in medicine.

The Yes Men announced, on behalf of the Bank of England, that it would refuse to buy bonds from fossil fuel companies. Too bad it isn't really so.

Bravo to the Yes Men. Remember when they sent a participant to a meeting of plutocratists to present a proposal to increase business efficiency by converting workers into property of their employers? Nobody was shocked by the idea.

Anti-racist groups call on various product-rating organizations to stop mentioning the Amazon Ring surveillance camera because it imposes surveillance on the movements of people that may be persecuted for being in neighborhoods where racists think they should not go.

I agree, but I insist that surveilling middle-class white males is equally intolerable. And surveillance of dissidents, regardless of their demographics, threatens the free society.

Young organizers of the Labour Party, who supported Corbyn and are very concerned about global heating, say that Labour under Starmer is pulling back on its climate defense plans (which were comparable to the Green New Deal).

This is a reflection of Starmer's rejection of Corbyn, who is the only reason those voters ever supported Labour.
