Those who do not learn to love one another will die.
When you look down at others instead of helping lift other up nobodt cares when you implode. I’m VERY sad for the regular non crazy american, you guys are the real victims.
No, the real victims are the children who were killed in a hospital or school bombing by the US. If the US is terminally weakened it may be less capable of bombing schools and hospitals halfway across the world.
I couldn’t get very far through this briar-patch of buzz-words. But the collapse of the Soviet Union was brought about by material economic conditions, not by jumping up and down on their own dicks the way America is handling it.
I suspect the apt model for America’s future is the British Empire.
material economic conditions, not by jumping up and down on their own dicks the way America is handling it.
Except the US is about to suffer those material economic conditions because they’re jumping on their own dicks.
“Revenge” I believe is the correct word
They are kinda doing a version of shock therapy on themselves though. (On their own dick.)
Hey buddy we shock our own dicks here and we like it thay wa-- OW
What comes next is Trump will go nuts and start walking around naked and MAGAts will celebrate by doing the same.
A 21st century retelling of “The emperors new clothes”, where the emperor is also an influencer and sends people who warns about his nakedness to a dungeon in another kingdom.
What happened to the super rich people from USSR when it collapsed?
There weren’t really many super rich people in the USSR. There were people with a lot of influence and power, who had nicer houses, better food, clothes, etc. but very few had a tons of money stashed away. You have to remember that Stalin and many of his followers viewed capitalism as the root of all evil and would imprison or kill rich people.
And many of those influential people used that power after the fall to become super rich by snapping up former state assets. Which is seemingly part of their current goal in the US: Isolate the country and destroy government assets to privatize them. Literally trying to recreate the situation that created the 90s Russian oligarchs.
Probably took extended vacations to Montenegro or similar.
Ever read Walkaway by Cory Doctorow? I hope it’s like that.
Set in our near-future, it is a story of walking away from “non-work”, and surveillance and control by a brutal, immensely rich oligarchical elite; love and romance; a post-scarcity gift economy; revolution and eventual war; and a means of finally ending death

I sure hope so and hope its takes Israel, and a number of Arab governments, down with it. As someone who used to believe in the myth I am bitter and disgusted by what the US really is and always has been.
