The richest man owns X.

The second and fourth richest men control Google.

The third richest man owns The Washington Post.

The fifth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

The clip-on, plug-in promise of #Archigram & the #Metabolists didn't degrade into the provisionality & disposability of #junkspace. It's been taken up by #MAGA. Witness its ability, a few years back, to whip up an armada of pleasure boats, or convoy of trucks. . .

And there we have it, folks. Saudi Arabia, Russia & Kuwait successfully block plastic production curbs.

“If we address plastic pollution, there should be no problem with producing plastics,” said Saudi delegate. “The problem is pollution itself, not plastics.”
