Capital is voting with its feet.
France, Germany & Spain are now net exporters of wealth. Britain alone lost 16,500 millionaires last year.

We’ve lost Venezuela. We might lose Cuba. The condition of Palestine is desperate. Global climate action is dead. Technofascists are running everything. The US “left” is Magafied populist trash in possession of zero brain power.
