As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.

This is really a bold step that all African leaders should take to demystify the paradox of African poverty. This is the only way to break the policy of keeping Africa impoverished for the sake of enriching the Western colonial powers. The message is to all African leaders.
The Communist Party of China has lifted 800 million people out of poverty. Meanwhile, in capitalist USA, billionaires are becoming trillionaires while 70% of Americans struggle to afford housing, healthcare, and groceries.
Annoying enough to have companies contact me to outsource our dispatch/call centre. We provide local jobs by keeping that all here and maintain quality control that no third party ever could. Now I'm asked constantly about AI that is meant obviously to replace people. HELL NO.
"[NovaRed Mining] has populated its advisory board with a sequence of high-profile United States hires ... And yet, because they've obtained a post office box in Canada, they are now eligible for a huge array of Canadian tax credits."
Charlie Angus details NovaRed's numerous MAGA connections.
⛔️⛔️JD Vance is warning Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration not to mess around with the United States, saying they may end up losing everything.
⛔️Vance says Trump is their last ally because the entire world already hates them.
"If I were in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally I have."‼️
The government of Lebanon just filed a formal complaint with the United Nations because Israel sprayed tens of thousands of pounds of poisonous cancer causing chemicals all over Lebanese farm lands.
If you still think this has ANYTHING to do with Hezbollah you're stupid.
Capitalism is a uniquely innovative economic and politicał system because it takes the worsť traits of humanity and reflects them back on us as virtues. Sociopaťhic behavior is rewarded while Empathy is punished.
16 Montreal police officers are under investigation for keeping the locs of apprehended Black men as trophies. No, this isn't the U.S. It's Canada. The depths of racism never cease to shock, turning human beings into targets and their identities into souvenirs.
Karl Marx was right when he said;
capitalists are their own gravėdiggers; that they repress wages yet seek to maximize profits, eventually workers can’t buy whats produced and the system starts coming to a halt.
I don't think anybody really grasps how desperate this situation is.
University professors are now saying they are unable to teach history because reading long books and passages is how a person learns history. College kids are incapable of reading more than a few pages.
Some classes don't assign any reading at all now, only lectures.
There is an assumption among the people managing this decline that reading is just a way of receiving information. It isn't. Proper reading is how we build the mental muscle to synthesize ideas and evaluate them.
If the catastrophic decline in reading and literacy is not addressed now, we risk losing everything.
Western civilization cannot survive the death of reading because it was built by people with the kind of cognitive depth that a culture of deep reading brings:
Complex reasoning, extended internal dialogue, the capacity to hold opposing ideas in tension. Our systems and institutions are complex, and they require well ordered minds to maintain them.
Reading forms minds, and the West was built by the richest minds in history.
• Ice water and ceiling fans do not contain respiratory viruses. A sore throat is an infection. But your environment drastically alters your body's local defense system.
• When your throat is exposed to freezing water or chilled AC air, the blood vessels in your pharynx instantly constrict to conserve heat. Less blood flow means fewer white blood cells (your immune soldiers) are actively patrolling the area.
• Fans and ACs strip moisture from the air, drying out the protective mucosal layer in your respiratory tract. Normally, this sticky mucus traps pathogens. A dry throat is an undefended throat.
• Here is the clinical secret: you constantly have low levels of bacteria and viruses already residing in your upper airway. Usually, your immune system keeps them completely in check. But the moment cold and dryness temporarily drop your local defenses, these resident bugs rapidly multiply.
• The Golden Rule: Cold water doesn't give you a virus; it temporarily disarms your throat's security system, giving the viruses already waiting at the gates the perfect opportunity to attack.

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.
This is how broken the democratic process in Canada is. A mega bank based in America hired an army of ex-Liberals, Conservatives and NDPers and bolted the issue of Billy Bishop expansion to the top of the priority list for Ford and Carney.
No one voted for it. No one wanted it. No one campaigned on it. Torontonians are massively against it.
We are under economic warfare. Ontario govt wiped out OSAP for students. Yet govts think it wise to spend their resources on an issue no one wanted except one mega US bank.
This is the key danger of privatization. These foreign equity banks are massive, comparable to govts and have ability to bribe and buy out govts. JP Morgan just did it.
