  • There’s no such thing as a free market economy.

    One has never existed and one could never exist. In fact, the idea that a free and fair (uncontrolled) market could exist is more utopian than anything you’ll hear from any socialist.

    The wealthiest in the world fo exactly the same thing. They just don’t do it openly, in the way you would find under a traditional dictatorship.

    More so, free market capitalism (even though it couldn’t exist) is only one type of capitalism. So, it’s far from rare but the industry standard for dictatorships, oligarchies and despots.



  • They said jaywalking was an American concept and it really is. I think only Germany are also that dumb about crossing roads.

    Why would the idea of jaywalking laws being predominantly pushed by automobile special interest groups seem so wild to you? I mean, don’t tell me you think jaywalking laws have anything to do with people’s safety.












  • I don’t think I dismissed it but mearly made sure that all the factors leading to it were included. In fact, its people taking issue with me mentioning them who are dismissing things they dont like. If you’re in denial about that, then you’re probably in detail about how much of an influence America was on Hitler too.

    For sure, its not like we need any help with making far right groups. However, we have help making them none the less.

    I mean, maybe the rise of the far right in America and then a similar rise across the world, with a sufficient lag time, is completely unrelated. Maybe operation galdio didn’t do exactly what it set out to do. Maybe its better to blame people for the additional effect it has on them, outside of their control. I mean, that would be very in keeping with far right thinking.




  • Unfortunately, American politics is so toxic, its infected nearly every country its come into contact with.

    Understanably, american money and election interference is the reason European politics is becoming more americanised. For example, it was regan who radicalised thatcher. It was American and Russian dark money that funded vote leave (brexit). It was the CIA who funded far right groups all over Europe. Its American, far right Christian groups who try to lobby to take away reproductive freedom for women etc. etc.

    America is empire now and no ones laughing anymore.
