Manifestua "Azken deia"

Krisi ekonomikoa edo erregimen krisia baino gehiago da hau: zibilizazio krisia da

Europako herritarrek, orokorrean, onartzen dute gaur egungo kontsumo gizartea etorkizunerantz “hobetu” daitekeela (eta egin behar duela). Bitartean, planetako biztanleen zati eder bat gure ongizate materialen mailara iristeko zain da. Alta, produkzio eta kontsumo maila hau baliabide natural eta energetikoak ahituz lortu da, eta Lurraren ekologia orekak hautsiz.

Kontua ez da berria. Ikertzaile eta zientzialari buruargienak alarmarako zantzu sendoak ematen ari zaizkigu XX. mendeko zazpigarren hamarkadatik hona: orain arteko hazkunde joerekin jarraituz gero (ekonomikoa, demografikoa, baliabideen erabilera, kutsatzaileen ekoizpena eta desberdintasunen hazkundearekikoa) XXI. menderako ondorio probableena zibilizazio kolapsoa da.

Hazkundearen bidea jadanik genozidioa kamera geldoan dela adierazten duten albisteak pilatzen dira gaur. Energia merkearen eskuragarritasuna gainbehera, aldaketa klimatikoaren eszena katastrofikoak eta baliabideengatiko tentsio geopolitikoek erakusten dute aitzinamendurako joera zaharrak eteten ari direla.

Erronka honen aurrean ez dira aski garapen iraunkorraren mantra ekosmetikoak, ez eta teknologia ekoefizienteen aldeko apustu soilak ere, edo balizko “ekonomia berde” bat, ondare naturalen eta zerbitzu ekosistemikoen merkantilizazioa ezkutatzen dituena. Konponbide teknologikoak, ingurumen krisiari eta gainbehera energetikoari dagokionean, gutxiegi dira.

Gainera, krisi ekologikoa ez da gai partziala, gizartearen alde guztiak zehazten dituena baizik: elikadura, garraioa, industria, eraikuntza, gatazka belikoak… Finean, gure ekonomiaren eta bizitzen oinarria da.

Harrapatuta gaude hazten ez bada ez dabilen zibilizazioan, eta hazten bada bera posible egiten duten oinarri naturalak suntsitzen dituenean. Gure kultura teknozale eta merkatuzaleak ahaztu egiten du gu, errotik, ekosistemen eta elkarren dependiente garela.

Planetak ezin du gizarte produktibista eta kontsumista mantendu. Handitzen ari den giza populazio erraldoi bati (gaur egun 7200 milioitik gora), baliabideak urritzen ari diren planetan, bizitza duina bermatuko dion zibilizazio berria eraiki behar dugu. Horretarako errotiko aldaketak beharko dira bizimoduetan, produkzio moduetan, hirien diseinuan eta lurralde antolaketan: eta batez ere aurreko guztia gidatzen duten baloreetan. Biosferarekin oreka berreskuratzea helburu duen gizartea behar dugu, ikerkuntza, teknologia, kultura, ekonomia eta politika helburu horretarako erabiltzen dituena. Hori egiteko erakutsi ditzakegun irudimen politiko, eskuzabaltasun moral eta sormen teknikoa behar ditugu.

Baina Transformazio Handi honek bi oztopo itzel ditu: bizimodu kapitalistaren inertzia eta talde pribilegiatuen interesak. Kaosa eta basakeriarantz jarraitzea saihesteko, indarrean den hegemoniarekin haustura politiko sakona behar dugu, eta biosferaren mugen barnean gizartearen beharrizanak asetzea helburu duen ekonomia, eta ez hazkundea eta irabazte pribatua.

Zorionez, gero eta jende gehiago ari da erreakzionatzen, eliteen hutsak ordaindu ditzaten saiatzen direnean. Gaur egun, espainiar Estatuan, M15ak (2011ko udaberritik) ekarri duen duintasun eta demokrazia iratzartzea beste gizarte antolaketa batzuek posible egiten dituen prozesu konstituziogilea mamitzen ari da.

Hala ere, ezinbestekoa da proiektu alternatiboek kontzientzia hartzea hazkundearen mugek dakartzaten inplikazioez eta aldakuntza proposamen askoz ere adoretsuagoak egitea. Erregimen eta ekonomia krisia, krisi ekologikoa gainditzen bada soilik gainditu ahalko dira. Zentzu honetan, ez dira aski kapitalismo keynesiarraren errezetak. Politika hauek, bigarren mundu gudaren ondorengo hamarkadetan, planetaren mugen atarira eraman gintuen hedatze zikloa ekarri zuten. Beste hedatze ziklo bat bideraezina da: ez dago mantenduko lukeen oinarri materialik, ez eta espazio ekologikorik edo baliabide naturalik ere.

XXI. mendea gizateriaren menderik erabakiorrena izango da. Kultura eta gizarte guztientzako proba handia izango da, eta espeziearentzat bere osotasunean. Gizakiok Lurrean bizitzen jarraituko dugunentz zehaztuko duen proba izango da eta ondoren antolatuko dugun bizitza errukitsu izateko aukera. Parean dugun transformazioaren erronka neolitoko iraultza edo industria-iraultzaren mailako gertakari historikoen neurrikoa da.

Adi: abagunearen atea ixten ari da. Egia da erresistentzia mugimendu asko daudela munduan zehar ingurumen justiziaren alde (Global Witness erakundeak ia mila anbientalista hildako erregistratu ditu azken hamar urteetan bakarrik, meatzaritza edo petrolio erauzketa proiektuen aurka borrokan ari zirela, haien lur eta urak babesten). Baina gehienez ere bosturte bat dugu hazkundearen mugei buruzko eztabaida zabal eta transbertsala sendotzeko, eta demokratikoki alternatiba ekologiko eta energetiko zehatz eta bideragarriak eraikitzeko. Gai izan behar genuke ekonomia, energia, gizarte eta kultura eredu aldaketa baten alde gehiengo handiak lortzeko. Boterearen menderatzeko erabileratik eta aberastasunen pilatzetik eratorritako bidegabekerien aurka borrokatzeaz gain, errealitatea onartuko duen eredu batez ari gara, naturarekin baketuko dena eta Lurraren mugen ekologikoen barnean bizi ona posible egingo duena.

Zibilizazio bat amaitzen ari da eta beste bat eraiki behar dugu. Ezer ez egitearen ondorioek —edo gutxiegi egitearenak— zuzenean garamatzate gizarte, ekonomia eta ekologiaren kolapsora. Baina gaur hasiz gero, oraindik izan gaitezke gizarte solidario eta demokratiko baten protagonista, planetarekin bakean.

WikiLeaks reveals that literally every router in America has been compromised

The latest Wikileaks Vault7 release reveals details of the CIA’s alleged Cherry Blossom project, a scheme that uses wireless devices to access users’ internet activity. globinfo freexchange As cyber security expert John McAfee told to RT and Natasha Sweatte: Virtually, every router that's in use in the American home are accessible to hackers, to the CIA, that they can take over the control of the router, they can monitor all of the traffic, and worse, they can download malware into any device that is connected to that router. I personally, never connect to any Wi-Fi system, I use the LTE on my phone. That's the only way that I can be secure because every router in America has been compromised. We've been warning about it for years, nobody pays attention until something like WikiLeaks comes up and says 'look, this is what's happening'. And it is devastating in terms of the impact on American privacy because once the router...

Stephen Hawking confirms: The problem is Capitalism, not robots!

globinfo freexchange According to world famous physicist Stephen Hawking, the rising use of automated machines may mean the end of human rights – not just jobs. But he’s not talking about robots with artificial intelligence taking over the world, he’s talking about the current capitalist political system and its major players. On Reddit, Hawking said that the economic gap between the rich and the poor will continue to grow as more jobs are automated by machines, and the owners of said machines hoard them to create more wealth for themselves. The insatiable thirst for capitalist accumulation bestowed upon humans by years of lies and terrible economic policy has affected technology in such a way that one of its major goals has become to replace human jobs. If we do not take this warning seriously, we may face unfathomable corporate domination. If we let the same people who buy and sell our political system and resources maintain control of automated technology, the...

Confirmed: Alex Jones' popularity rises after Infowars banning from social media

globinfo freexchange We wouldn't expect to be confirmed so fast on this. A few days ago in the article IT and social media supergiants have just made Alex Jones a hero in the eyes of the ultra-conservative audience , we wrote that Alex Jones' wet dream has just become reality thanks to the combined move by Facebook, Apple, YouTube and Spotify to ban Infowars. These private IT and social media companies couldn't give a better gift to him right now. At a time where Infowars was going through a saturated period according to the best scenario, the corporate giants actually saved it with that stupid(?) strategy. Suddenly, a corporate branch of the liberal establishment gave real value to Alex Jones' awful performance, pretending to be the 'anti-establishment' hero - just like Donald Trump - and made him a real hero in the eyes of the ultra-conservative audience that has been brainwashed by his absurd conspiracy theories. Only a couple of days later...

CIA had an agent at a newspaper in every world capital at least since 1977

Joel Whitney is a co-founder of the magazine Guernica, a magazine of global arts and politics, and has written for many publications, including the New York Times and Wall Street Journal. His book Finks: How the C.I.A. Tricked the World's Best Writers describes how the CIA contributed funds to numerous respected magazines during the Cold War, including the Paris Review, to subtly promote anti-communist views. In their conversation, Whitney tells Robert Scheer about the ties the CIA’s Congress for Cultural Freedom had with literary magazines. He talks about the CIA's attempt during the Cold War to have at least one agent in every major news organization in order to get stories killed if they were too critical or get them to run if they were favorable to the agency. And they discuss the overstatement of the immediate risks and dangers of communist regimes during the Cold War, which, initially, led many people to support the Vietnam War. globinfo freexchange...

Confirmed: US imperialists wanted to drag Russia into a war with Ukraine since at least 2019

globinfo freexchange   As we wrote in our previous article, after almost eight years, the US imperialists and the NATO criminals got what they wanted. They finally managed to drag Russia into a war with Ukraine.     We now have indisputable evidence for that, through a document by the top US think tank, RAND Corporation. In the preface of a 2019 report under the title Extending Russia, Competing from Advantageous Ground we read: [emphasis added]                            The purpose of the project was to examine a range of possible means to extend Russia. By this, we mean nonviolent measures that could stress Russia’s military or economy or the regime’s political standing at home and abroad. The steps we posit would not have either defense or deterrence as their prime purpose, although they might contribute to both. Rather, these steps ar...

How normal human behavior became a false mental disorder epidemic

globinfo freexchange In the early nineties, an epidemic of mental disorder was sweeping America and Britain. It had been uncovered by a new system for identifying disorders. Psychiatry had been attacked for relying on the personal and fallible judgement of psychiatrists. But instead, a new objective method based on checklists had been invented. These listed only the objective symptoms, and deliberately did not enquire into why the individuals felt an anxiety. In the late 80s, nationwide surveys had revealed an incredible picture: more than 50% of Americans suffered from mental disorders. But at the very same, the drug companies had announced that they had created a new type of drug, called an SSRI, which they claimed, targeted the circuits inside the brain that were causing these malfunctions. The SSRIs were marketed under names like "Prozac". What they did was alter the amounts of serotonin that flowed across the circuit connections within the brain, and they...

Signals of an unsustainable future coming from Davos

Hyper-automation impact on unemployment rise - further shrinking of the middle class - creation of a working elite - substitution of saturated Western consumers with other emerging consumer tanks globinfo freexchange The general conclusions from the report The Future of Jobs , of the 2016 World Economic Forum, leave little room for optimistic thoughts about the future. They reflect what already most of us have realized: that the combination of the current socio-economic model with the rapid hyper-automation of production, lead to further imbalance and inequality in favor of the very few. As Stephen Hawking mentioned recently: “ If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the seco...

Varoufakis: IT technologies will overthrow Capitalism

globinfo freexchange The former Greek Minister of Finance, Yanis Varoufakis, ended his recent speech on the Future of Capitalism, at the New School, New York, with some interesting remarks. As he said: The world we live in, is increasingly rudderless, in a constant slow burning recession, while at the very same time, the increasing concentration in the IT sector is creating the new technologies that will do that which the Left has failed to do: overthrow Capitalism. It is really very simple. The moment machines pass the Turing test properly, and you pick up the phone and you do not know whether the person you are talking to is a human being or a machine ˙ the moment we are going to have 3D printers operating as public utilities - you can send any blueprint to it and it can print from one pin to a motorcycle, or to a car - the moment that this happens, we have not just a process of Schumpeterian creative destruction, but we have a process where economies of sc...
