We need to sever their paper from our nation's assets. Paper that has proliferated as the result of asset class inflation driven by a bubble of their creation.
This nation should not be for sale. Implementing that thought will be a real change. It has not been tried yet.
A country built on genocide and slavery is reaching its logical end. The new Reich is working on imploding the economy. The real goal is quick and brutal population reduction.
There will likely be a New Great Depression within a few years. That will hasten things along.
I have almost successfully radicalized the only Trumper that I know.
It has only happened because the Republicans in my state tried to push an anti-education bill that would remove a whole bunch of classes from public school, so many in fact that graduates from public school would not be admitted to our state universities because of that curriculum. One of those classes was music and this man is really into music.
Anyway, I have to be careful because he still simps for musk but he’s starting to see the coup. And today I really want him to explain to me how these right wingers are OK with a bunch of immigrants purchasing their way into the presidency. I really need to know how American loving flag wearing constitution licking people are OK with this. I need him to tell me it’s because they are white so I can fully cut him off, or so he can work this through in his own head and become fully radicalized with me.
If I delete this comment later it’s because I decided to send him your newsletter and I didn’t want him to know I was talking about him. I hope I can save him. He has a good heart, I don’t know how this happened except that he’s a gun lover.
It’s not too late for the US if we fight back at the state level.
The elected lawmakers in Congress and the Senate have to fight the Trump stuff, but while all the people are watching that the Republicans in their own states are pushing project 2025 laws.
I just logged on to submit public comment to oppose a whole bunch of education freedom account nonsense, but the one I think everyone will get cranked up about is NH HB691 where they want to remove fluoride from the water.
Rep Ellen Read introduced NH HB52 which I’m trying to get people in my state to log support for because it would make voting day a holiday, not just the general election but the primaries and our state general.
Last week or the week before Republicans were coming for absentee ballots and requiring a bunch of voter ID laws and all kinds of things. The least we can do is get those voting days to be holidays so we can vote if we work.
Of course it’s a coup. Elites coup each other all the time. In the history of coups one military branch or collection of officers coup another. That he’s couping an already corrupt system doesn’t make it not dangerous. Things can always get worse. Bad things can be replaced by worse. The Khmer Rouge were worse than the corrupt dictators they replaced. Trump and friends are far more dangerous for the world than what existed before.
American industrialists and capitalists did a genocide of indigenous people in North America and utterly terraformed the landscape to usher in industrial capitalism. New, different, dangerous. More dangerous? You'd have to go some to match what has already been done
Split the difference, or continue to argue about semantics? Either way, it's ok to see genuine argument.
Yes, this is "far more dangerous than what existed before," but there have been threats of this nazi anti-government hysteria becoming outright ruling fascism since Ike, since Nixon, and definitely since Reagan.
Fixating on terms gets a hyper-complex society nowhere - Bernie's been saying the "oligarchy" weasel word since he first got elected from the principality of Vermont to the completely anti-democratic body. But it's fine to see people of like mind go back and forth.
On stripping the tech monopoly of their power and taking away their assets and privileges I was wondering about your reviews on the Chinese communist parties cracked down on Alibaba two years ago
Thank you, well done, as usual. I try to tell my American (so am I) liberal friends that we’re in an oligarchy with no moral compass and they spew on about how it matters who gets elected.
Too bad they’re wrong. I see more commentary locally and nationally about people’s pets or stray animals than any outrage about Gaza which makes me sick. I want to live somewhere else but don’t, and hope non-Americans realize this shit is not my idea or desire of reality. So many people haver their heads in the sand it’s hard to accept.
How to start? Many things you write are very true, but unfortunately lacking in perspective and in nuance (historical and economic). Sure, neither Trump nor Musk arose from nothing in the United states. Among the many distortions in this text, the most jarring and damaging one is the idea repeated ad nauseam by the MAGA crowd that everything is the same in the United States, Republicans and Democrats, the tired Trumpist trick of saying after every unlawful, antidemocratic, vulgar, shameful or sordid speech or action when he is called out on it, that "what they say they did." Living in this country, I can attest that it as absolutely not true: not everything is the same, especially at the time when our country devolves into a fascist regime. Just as the Weimar Republic had many flaws and was far from perfect, who will say that the Nazi regime was just the continuation of the previous republic, other than, maybe, the Nazis themselves?
The UK under labour is being prepared for this. Reform is there to finish the job.
So well said...Thank you...
Thanks
The UK is already being sold off. SEZs, freeports, and charter cities owned by CEOs.
¡Billionaires!

I blew it. I went too hard for president musk & now I am getting spammed with twitter links. Booo
Too late for us in the US. But the place still has power, extending all over. Beware of it. It wants to use you for its plutocracy's ends.

You make good succinct points, but so does Nate.
