Perhaps socialism now carries a new meaning. Brains—the true foundation of labour—are more connected today than ever. Human knowledge is more collective than ever. Mutual aid has always been our species’ magic—the key to surviving a million years on this Earth. Alone, individuals are weak—falling to fentanyl, the drug of death and human defeat. But united, we are strong. Help at a planetary scale, mutual aid, the collective construction of knowledge, and humanity as a new political subject—this is the basis of a new socialism. We are the most advanced expression of life: **intelligent life.** And we must defend it—against a global oligarchy that seeks to destroy it. We must build a new kind of wealth—not based on oil, but on intensity, on free and creative labour enabled by the extraordinary productivity now achieved, including artificial intelligence—which must be regulated by global public power. Productivity should mean free, creative time—the neural network of human minds, the greatest force ever achieved. This human neural web can lead us to victory, with the banner of life raised high.
