Blackstone didn't buy 274,000 homes to be landlords.
They spent $1 trillion turning homeownership into subscription housing.
They are creating a generation that will own nothing and rent everything.
While families dream of white picket fences, Wall Street dreams of permanent tenants 🧵
Isn't it ironic? A hundred EV companies have bloomed under communism, while capitalism subsidizes one moron. A startup has trained an AI for $5.5 million under communism, while capitalist AI requires $500 billion in government support. 1/11
“Were Nature sentient, she too would pass from youth to age,
But Man’s world is mutable, seas become mulberry fields.”— end of Mao’s poem on the liberation of Nanjing.
Happy 131st Birthday, Mao
China says Merry Christmas to the Pentagon and happy birthday to Mao Zedong by unveiling its 6th generation fighter, leaping ahead of the US.
This is a big shakeup to the world of military aviation.
🇧🇫 Burkina Faso President Traoré:
"For the imperialists, the world is a triangle... At the top of the triangle is the empire of good, and the empire of good is them.
They are prosperity. They are everything positive. They are entitled to all the happiness in this world. They have the right to all the riches. They impose their worldview, their vision, their way of life...
At the base of the triangle, there are two empires.
On one side, the empire of evil. 🇷🇺 🇨🇳
And on the other, the empire of slaves.
This is how they see the world...
Once Russia collapsed, those who claimed to be the empire of good began to gloat until Vladimir Putin's team came to revive Russia.
The empire of slaves is Africa and Latin America.
They are the empire of good, others are the empire of evil. And we are the empire of slaves. This is the imperialist worldview...
Understand the game. This game has gone on too long.
We need to wake up and fight for our future.
All these wars, Iraq, Syria, Libya, were fabricated to destabilize the world for their benefit, ensuring that no one could ever match them."
I will happily give you clear arguments for why I am skeptical:
Trump's transition team lead says RFK will not actually have a role at HHS, and will only have access to vaccine data, contrary to what was promoted publicly. Last time Trump was in office, he extensively deregulated GMO crops and plants. JD Vance, Vivek and Musk are deeply invested in biotech, including biotech "health" products like mRNA vaccines, which Trump supported last time via Op Warp Speed and has yet to issue a public apology for his Covid-era policies. Speaking of those policies, Trump let Larry Fink design Covid-era fiscal policy, which saw the US print more $ than at any point in history and which began even before a pandemic was declared and it resulted in a massive transfer from Main Street to Wall Street. Trump campagined in 2016 on regulating Wall Street and bringing back Glass Steagall but he further de-regulated Wall Street instead, helping to create the 2023 banking crisis that began w SVB. Trump campaigned as "loving" WikiLeaks but then let Mike Pompeo plot to imprison and murder Assange and refused to pardon Assange but pardoned financial criminal Michael Milken instead. The guy responsible for going after Assange, Pompeo, is still in Trump's good graces and one of his top aides is now in charge of picking staff for Trump's new State Dept. Trump didn't start any new wars, but he didn't need to because 5 were already happening, some of which he greatly expanded and he dropped more bombs than Obama, he had a bunch of neocons in his cabinet and tried to coup Venezuela (which would have exacerbated the current migrant crisis) and killed an Iranian general on a diplomatic mission in an obv attempt to goad Iran into war. This cycle, war w Iran has been signaled by Vance, Trump and Pompeo. I have plenty of reason to be skeptical because of the above track record. Everything I said comes w receipts
