At least we have news for Florida. I still agree with Wolf and Hudson and I've been saying it on here too. Harris planned to fail us. Why? Both parties hate Bernie because he is the honest rep for the working classes (professional, employees, small shops) people.
I'm disappointed that there isn't any coverage about the 2008 affect on all of this. Obama won handily with DEI and the bankers crisis. Then he later struggled for a 2nd term - he would never have won a 3rd - the gig was up at that point.
I still hope that Nikki Fried has the fight in her. Honestly, I'd like to see Florida Dems spit from the national ones. Harris didn't visit Florida for this campaign. With so much on the line for us and all the terror we have exported - no one cared, did they? Nikki had to shout from the rooftops that Florida is worth fighting for.... and all we heard from national is crickets.
America reflects Germany's Weimar Republic in that the conservatives, afraid of socialism or communism, installed Hitler. So Bernie was blocked for similar reasons, and we got Trump Nazi. What America got instead of workers and citizens running a republic is now a corporatocracy, fascism of the state+industrialists who have turned US citizens into eternal children, dependent on Amazon, Google, Facebook and their smart phones that dominate them. And communism is of the private corporate type. The 1% dictators now own all the private property! Poor Trump Stools, wondering why they will be homeless and starving, Medicaid gutted, The Affordable Care Act repealed. But they are still on X, absorbing the propaganda intended for them... the least educated to realize it.
well said - I just watched a 3 . 5 interview with Wolf and Hudson. I had no idea why Karl Marx was completely obliterated from our education. What's there to be afraid of anyway. And, because I have been always pushed to the outside - I can see that Marx was correct in his observations of human behavior. That's economic isn't it?
Then it was interesting that the soviets failed to read his Vol 2 & 3 and failed to see what was coming. It's long but it's worth listening too.
Richard Wolff and Michael Hudson : Karl Marx and the fall of the west
Well, I only respectfully disagree on one point ;)
They are educated. That's scary. But only partly. I have never ever been encouraged to use "critical thinking skills" and make comments at the workplace, in the community, ever. We say it but we don't practice. Maybe except online ;) These people (and all of us) do not use critical thinking comments because there would be a backlash. We are punished with being jobless. We don't make the $$. Just like Wolff and Hudson said - it was hard for them to practice their knowledge and that' the NE Universities.
At the end of the day, most people are not living paycheck to paycheck even people that appear wealthy. BUT voting for trump is not their salvation but there destruction.
I'm not at all thrilled with the Dems. It is their fault too. Absolutely. Because when the news broke that Kamala had a 2 hour lunch with Jamie Dimon - I knew the show was over. She didn't actually fight for homeowners - the details reveal something else. They got a $1200 check to leave......
I think Bernie is it. If he can muster the angry of the 45% that didn't vote for trump and talk to the people who were angry to vote for him - maybe we can stand a chance.
People need to come to grips with the fact that the USA is no longer a democracy nor a republic. It's an oligarchy and dictatorship controlled by technocrat Elon Musk and other fascist billionaires and the Trump Tools who were so entertained with games to vote them in are now the Trump Stools. If fascism is capitalism in decay, the US is a shining example, and as we all know, Steve Bannon is an avowed Leninist. Just wait till the inflation and scarcity from Trump's tariffs kick in. Trump Stools crying over the price of eggs will be crying over $500 loaves of bread. He's making the USA like Argentina. Do cry.
great article with informative data (the list of donors) and great links to other articles and sources.
