Most capitalists, as a class, don't think "oh, we should fire people to make sure we don't lose control." But, as here, a few people do. All it takes is a few because you have highly class aware companies like BlackRock, which own enough stock to just force boards to force CEOs to lay people off. Strongly worded letters from private equity can kick off firing sprees in FAANG. Everyone else just follows their lead because "they must have some information we don't" or "they're smart, so we should follow their lead."
It takes a very tiny portion of the capitalist class to maintain the system. It mostly acts without any centralized control channel. That's one of the the things that makes the system so stable.

The image is a close-up, waist-level shot of a person wearing a black t-shirt and camouflage-patterned pants. Attached to the person's belt is a black holster, commonly used for carrying a firearm. However, instead of a weapon, a yellow wrapper with the words "CHEESE BURGER" printed in large, bold, orange letters is sticking out of the holster. The wrapper appears to be from a fast-food item, likely a cheeseburger. The person's hand is visible on the left side of the frame, resting near the hol…

"Take the universe and grind it down to the finest powder and sieve it through the finest sieve and then show me one atom of justice, one molecule of mercy. And yet...

Hantaviruses, which belong to the Bunyavirales order, replicate and transcribe their genome in the cytoplasm of infected cells. So Hantavirus already won’t enter the nucleus, and Ivermectin, an anti-parasite substance, won’t do much of anything to a virus.
“…orthomyxoviruses replicate and transcribe their genome within the cell nucleus, whereas bunyavirus genome replication and transcription occur in the cytoplasm.”

screenshot of a post by Mary Talley Bowden MD 

Red letters: False Information

Hantavirus is a RNA virus, and ivermectin should work against it. 

Ivermectin blocks RNA viruses from entering the nucleus, inhibits viral replication, disrupts integrity of the viral membrane and can prevent viral replication.

The GUARDIAN:
"After erecting scaffolding on Friday evening, workers in hard hats and hi-viz vests draped tarpaulin over the temporary structure at 2am to block public views of their progress but were seen, through a small opening in the scaffolding covering, to be removing the letters at about 3am."

The image is a graphic design featuring bold, stylized text against a vibrant, solid royal blue background. The primary focus is the word "ZATHRAS" rendered in large, uppercase letters. These letters are a bright, warm orange with a distinct red outline, giving them a three-dimensional, embossed appearance. The shadows cast by the red outline suggest light coming from the top left.

Below "ZATHRAS," and slightly to the left, is the word "FOR" in a smaller, italicized font, also in the same oran…

I suppose this is true, strictly speaking, but only in the same way that using a computer or a mobile phone could end up with you introduced to the same set of friends.
"Most excitingly, you can download apps for [Software Defined Radios] that do everything, most especially the kind of thing that will introduce you with surprisingly rapidity to a wide range of new friends with no sense of humor and love letters that look suspiciously like arrest warrants."

The President and his lickspittles in Congress are introducing legislation to shield fossil fuel companies from liability for their intentional and knowing actions to emit GHGs, fully aware of the damage, destruction and death that would cause.
Please, if you live in California, write you congress people and tell them to oppose this legislation. It's easy, I just did it using this action network link:

A close-up of a corrugated metal wall with a neon sign that reads "Film Never Die" in large, bold letters. The sign is illuminated and stands out against the textured, industrial surface of the wall. Below the main sign, there is a smaller sticker or label with the same text. The background is slightly blurred, but another sign with partial text "Grain is Good" is visible.

English

A shadow of a tree branch is cast sharply against a brick wall. The shadow creates a striking, abstract pattern, with the branches extending diagonally across the wall. The wall itself is made of uniformly laid bricks, and some greenery is visible at the bottom right corner, suggesting the presence of plants or a garden nearby.

A narrow, dimly lit alleyway in an urban setting. The alley is flanked by old, weathered buildings with visible wear and peeling paint. Overhead, a network of electrical wires and makeshift awnings can be seen. The ground is paved with bricks, some of which appear damp or stained. The alley extends into the distance, creating a sense of depth and leading the eye toward a brighter area at the end.
