Campaigners need to read this. The pressure will be on for a return to normal (hell I’m desperate for a coconut latte). Totally understandable. But we have to show it’s not a package, that it doesn’t have to just be like before - we can have normal plus jobs and justice too https://twitter.com/be_braver/status/1249593564268580864
What was different for me about this piece was the lightbulb that advertising and commercialism will deploy en masse for the status quo. It’s not just “the right wing press”.
And we mustn’t forget people. So so many people just want to see their families, go to the pub, work out at the gym. Somehow we have to convey that we want those things too - but that they don’t have to come with poverty wages and mass inequality.
And all this will be in the midst of a depression. So whatever we propose has to put jobs and getting family incomes rising first.
