Staunch (Economic) Populist.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The rot has a board of directors.

They are not mysterious. They are not hidden.

They are on the websites of the think tanks and the boards of the defense contractors and the partner lists of the NGOs and in the PAC filings flowing to both political parties.

Raytheon. Lockheed Martin. Boeing Defense. Northrop Grumman. General Dynamics.

These companies profit directly from war.

Not from winning wars. From having wars.

The distinction matters enormously.

A war that ends is a contract that concludes.

A permanent security environment, an endless war on terror, a long-term confrontation with Russia, a generational competition with China, a forever conflict in the Middle East, is a permanent revenue stream.

The incentive is not victory.

The incentive is continuation.

And these companies employ former generals, former intelligence directors, former secretaries of state as board members and consultants.

Those former officials appear on television as "independent analysts."

They are identified as former National Security Advisor, former Deputy Secretary of Defense, former Director of Central Intelligence.

They are not identified as current board members of companies with nine-figure contracts that depend on the policies they are analyzing.

That omission is not an accident.

The infection is not in spite of this.

The infection is this.

@grok @CJetty26 @BrokenGimbal @wow36932525 @NASA @grok please explain how we can determine a plate artifact from a genuine anomaly? What can citizen astronomers do to help make such a determination?

@dirtbagleft1 Emma can get fucked, but she’s an elitist enabler. The real question is why the hell so many people listen to crap like this and can’t see the class connection.

Maybe we should use AI to put a monocle on her. Maybe that’d get the point across.

[samfish @samfish]

@VickieforNYC @BillAckman And can you define what is meant by the shorthand “the west”?

I bet you can’t.

[samfish @samfish]

@NYC2CA2VA @BillAckman Found another fascist.

Go figure — an asshole billionaire’s timeline collects you freaks like moths to a bug zapper.

[samfish @samfish]

@geomadegeo @BillAckman @sanfran_972 lol truth seeking AI. Tell that to the burgeoning GEO industry. Which you’d think this clown would know about, given his handle… and yet he says trash like this.

[samfish @samfish]

@BillAckman Money doesn’t make you smart, as Bill here demonstrates. Nobody will pity him when it’s time to go against the wall.

[samfish @samfish]

@SugarGlider949 @BillAckman The rest are zionazis.

Which camp do you belong in?

Probably the camp that puts other people in camps.

[samfish @samfish]

@haaw50 @mb_ghalibaf Well, maybe if you kid-fuckers weren’t sanctioning them for decades, the quality of life would improve for Iranians.

[Sony Thăng @nxt888]

The biggest lie America ever sold was that bad presidents are the problem.

As if the next one will cancel the wars, empty the cages, and dismantle the empire.

The problem is not one man.

It is a system that turns every man into the same thing once he sits in that chair.

Only the people can change the chair.

No one in it ever will.

@BarbaraAReiter2 @Timcast you have no idea what that word means, so why do you use it?

[samfish @samfish]

@dirtbagleft1 Does anyone still think Sayed will somehow not instantly join the Epstein class democrats?

[samfish @samfish]

@IfindRetards It seems to me that, based on this poll, a majority of your followers are fascist. Thus it also seems to me that the imbecile catering to zionazis and fascists is the real retard.

[samfish @samfish]

@RStone_Beat @reddit_lies No, you piece of shit wingnut — It wouldn’t. Which pedophile billionaire-owned news outlet did you hear that from?

[samfish @samfish]

@terryfahn @JesseRingle2 @robbysoave The answer to that question is an obvious “yes”, you moron. If nothing else, this is literally and exactly what sanctions are.

[samfish @samfish]

@robbysoave Wait until Robbie finds out that nearly everything he’s been told about China is, at best, an exaggeration by rich capitalists.

[samfish @samfish]

@Rachaelmar1e Why are you vociferously defending baby killers?

[samfish @samfish]

@DC_Draino Aww that’s cute. One of liberal’s main knocks on Bush were how he was always giggling and smirking when talking about 9/11 and his disastrous wars. There was literally a website called smirking chimp.

So again, you’re being a dumb fuck hypocrite. But you’re a paid shill, so...

[samfish @samfish]

@luckystrike_44 @valhalla_guy @AceMakesCents If you reigned in the people who make it untenable to live in a house you paid off for 30 years, maybe this would be good advice. But as it stands, whether you realize it or not, you’re just simping for the 1%; you’re talking like a peasant. This is a result of wealth extraction.

[samfish @samfish]

@robbysoave Who cares what Hasan Piker says? Why are you participating in this distraction nonsense?
