The reality we’re staring at in 2026 is the violent finalization of a global monopoly. When we see the USA and its partners squeezing a country like Iran on every possible front, we have to stop viewing it as a "geopolitical" disagreement and start seeing it as the armed wing of global capital doing its job.
Imperialism is the outward pressure of a capitalist system that has run out of domestic markets and is now forced to break open every closed door left on the map. This is the "one superpower" end game, the total enclosure of the planet under a single economic logic.
The goal in places like Iraq, Libya, or now potentially Iran, is never just a military win, it’s the privatization of the rubble. This is the blueprint of modern accumulation. First, you use sanctions to strangle the working class and "soften" the state. Then, you use warfare to destroy the physical infrastructure. Finally, you bring in the "reconstruction" firms, the BlackRocks and the Halliburtons… to rebuild the country using high interest loans that the nation can never pay back. By the time the smoke clears, the utilities, the oil, and the banks are no longer sovereign they are American assets.
This "Rules Based Order" we’re told to defend is essentially a global protection racket. You’re only "free" until you decide to trade in a different currency, nationalize your own resources or stand against the USA.
The moment a nation tries to exist outside the American based financial grid, they become a systemic threat that must be neutralized. It’s a double sided theft that hits the working class on both ends. While Americans are told there’s "no money" for basic dignity at home, the state magically finds infinite billions to fuel these expansions.
They are literally stealing from the poor in the USA to destroy the poor there, all to ensure that the boardrooms in the Global North keep their margins up.
If this machine succeeds in closing every front, we’re looking at the death of the "outside." We are entering a period where there is no alternative model of development and no escape from a single, inescapable market enforced by a single military.
It never stops being amazing. The absolute trash-tier caliber of US politicians who lecture the entire planet about democracy, freedom, and the "rules-based order."
These are people who don't know anything about anything. They can't name a capital. Can't survive a single follow-up question on live television. Can't point to the countries they vote to bomb on a map.
But they'll greenlight sanctions that starve millions and regime change operations that destroy entire societies without losing a second of sleep.
This is the political class that thinks it runs the world.
Of course, they don't. These are the puppets put in front of us.
Empty suits with empty brains put in front of cameras to keep the circus rolling while the real power operates where no one's asking follow-up questions.
Tractors i rigor. Llevant fang dels carrers i també de les xarxes. Molt important la faena que està fent la columna de tractoristes suecans. No compartiu res sense revisar abans la font, els comentaris, si és info de 1a mà o “li ho han dit”, si són perfils antisistema, etc. Ànim!
Estoy HARTA de los influencers diciendo “la realidad de lo que está pasando”, como si los medios de comunicación no estuvieran allí dejándose la piel para informar de forma veraz. #noseespeculaseinforma
Por más que hago esfuerzos por intentar comprenderlo, os juro que no consigo entender cómo podía haber gente difundiendo, de manera inventada, el número de muertos que había ahí dentro. ¿Por qué queréis hacer daño? De verdad, que alguien me explique que ganáis. ¿En serio no tenéis la más mínima conciencia que os vale difundir cualquier mierda con tal de conseguir visualizaciones?
Fascist salutes and known neonazi activists in the frontline of the protests against the visit of the King, Sanchez and Mazón in Paiporta.
The far-right are there on the ground in Valencia looking to channel people's justified anger at state failure for their own ends.
Entonces en València están Javier Negre y Dani Desokupa
Y, de repente, aparecen en primera fila en Paiporta el líder de la asociación ultraderechista #Revuelta, vinculada a VOX, y un tipo con una sudadera de la División Azul, ¿no?
¿Os hago un croquis?
Ante la pérdida del relato político por parte de la derecha local, hoy ha habido un intento con influencers, agitadores de ultraderecha y neonazis, venidos de Madrid de culpar al Presidente del Gobierno de esta catástrofe. A eso vinieron a Paiporta.Muy medida.
