Retired,unfortunately. Believer in Strong Towns, MMT, & a Fair World Order. Anti-Monopoly, pro Right-Sized Capitalism. 94% tax rate sounds about right.
People really compare dyinġ from poverty to Darwin’s “survival of the fittest.”
Poverty is a social construct driven by wealth hoarding in the post industrial age, not by any natural shortage of resources.
@MikeLevin@RachelBitecofer I disagree with your statement that the truth always comes out. In my opinion, it rarely does. The system must survive, and it always does.
The iron law of institutions.
@OrevaZSN Final thing. Government must control private banking. In the US, private banking has gone insane because the government doesn’t control it. Private credit is gonna crash all the other stuff (oil, food etc will skyrocket). AI is done.
BREAKING:
Israeli settlers are burning Taybeh in occupied Palestine.
A village that has stood for thousands of years.
A place where Jesus once walked.
Home to the oldest living Christian community in the world.
And not a peep from Western mainstream media.
I am deeply grateful for the overwhelming support, encouragement, and kind messages I have received from people around the world. Your solidarity has reminded me that football unites us beyond borders. Thank you to everyone.
I am very tired from all the existential crises that threaten to end us all. Psychopaths in charge, libertarian tech bros, billionaires, AMOC collapse, climate collapse, plague after plague. No solutions, only problems. Personally, I'd start with removing the psychopaths.
🇦🇲🇦🇿🇺🇸 Jeffrey Sachs: TRIPP (Zangezur corridor) is a crazy idea. Armenia will end up getting blown up.
"Anyone that signs up with Trump should have his head examined right now. If you want to sign up with Trump, go talk to Bahrain, Qatar, Emirates, Saudis. Ask, 'Is that really a very good idea? Did the US protect you? Does having something called a Trump highway or Trump project, is that really helpful for you right now?'
It's a crazy idea. I'm sorry to say as bluntly as I can, stay away from American wars. This is not the business for the South Caucasus to get pulled into America's and Israel's craziness.
America's playing games with the rest of the world. It thinks it owns Latin America. It thinks it controls the Middle East. It wants to play games in the Caucasus. Don't get pulled into US stupidity because you'll end up getting blown up.
You need good relationships within the Caucasus. I know it's hard, but it's important. And then with Russia, with Turkey, with Iran, those are your neighbors. You let the United States in, you're just inviting war. Please don't do that."
The US is going to attempt to destroy Mexico's success and destabilize the country severely. They may try to assassinate or otherwise neutralize Sheinbaum and replace her with some Zionist CIA controlled puppet.
I wish the US falls into chaos, crisis and devastating depression before it can harm Mexico once more
Mexicans need to be ready, and their fantastic presidenta is doing an excellent job in politicizing and reminding them of their anticolonial obligations. The momentum Morena has created must not be allowed to stop. I'm crossing my fingers for a country I truly love
With Elon Musk amplifying anti-Muslim propaganda and censoring pro-Muslim voices, I would like to have a test here:
Say hello if you don't have a problem that I'm a Muslim and that I'm just your friend on twitter.
To recap:
- Dem and Rep operatives spend the week setting the narrative that Graham Platner is a predator
- Pro-Israel NYT runs a story on Graham Platner
- Done by a pro-Israel reporter
- No SA allegation
- They talk to 6 exes. 3 say he was fine.
- 2 of the remainder say he drank and womanized
- The last is a Conservative activist who protected Brett Kavanaugh
- She claims Platner trapped her in a room
- The NYT reads her diaries, texts, Google Chats, and Facebook messages. Nothing corroborates her story.
- NYT finds a text from the accuser saying she "Would personally campaign for Susan Collins."
This is the most obvious Zionist smear campaign in history.
@lisapease Thank you. That alone gets you 2/3 of the way to winning. Nobody is gonna attack us unless we do stupid shit that an anti-war party would not do.
This is extremely important. Later this year the world will suffer two simultaneous disasters: the collateral damage of Trump and Netanyahu’s stupid war, and the biggest El Niño ever.
It's time to recognize that prices have essentially doubled since 2019, regardless of what the CPI says. Construct an index based on actual prices without myriad adjustments and this is what it shows. Now think about your income with a 50% loss of purchasing power.
Entering month 6 of the Mamdani mayorship of NYC and Robberies are down 11%, Retail theft is down 19%, and Murder is down an astounding 21%.
And he did so without "Adding 5000 new cops" to the streets. Instead, he's invested in public safety with free childcare, accessible infrastructure, and better funded schools and libraries. He's proven once again that if we want safer communities, we must invest in People—not Punishments.
