BUSTED
The rules of nationalist hi-tech oil-centric militarist capitalism now demand that certain West Asian civilizations be wiped off the map. Billions of human beings may need to die in the eventual fallout. Trust me this is a good thing. It will help improve weapons profits and may bring down gas prices for Americans. Please don’t start talking about political parties that oppose nationalist high-tech oil-centric militarist capitalism because that would be impolite
This summer we've planned two Europe tours and one Asia tour, for which all flights and expenses have been paid. It’s unclear exactly how we’ll be able to do them when airlines have no fuel and the host countries’ economies are crashed, because of Amerisrael's wars. It’s unclear how we’ll be able to do them after a nuclear explosion.
Aren’t there some international rules, frameworks, agreements, or institutions that govern the use of force on our planet? Aren't there consequences for those who break them?
There used to be. The entire world watched as they were publicly and methodically dismantled by the Joe Biden administration. The left tried to stop it, warning of the obvious consequences. Their voices were silenced by electioneering “Democrats” who pronounced such warnings to be unserious. Or antisemitic.
The problem isn’t really Biden. It's not Netanyahu. It's not Trump.
People love to personalize evil policies. “Trump is evil and that’s why the world is the way it is."
Or people like to universalize evil. “Human nature is evil and that’s why the world is the way it is."
Both are comforting lies. We are allowing our politico-economic system to choose evil, again and again, every day.
The nationalist high-tech oil-centric militarist-capitalist system now destroying life on Earth needs people to make the laws to keep it alive. Fools like Biden, Netanyahu and Trump were simply the ones gullible enough to be impressed by the chance. They’re simply cowards enough to never admit a mistake. They live in a bubble of yes-men and ladder-climbers, buffered from reality. They’re kept in this bubble by sycophantic fans who would rather sacrifice human lives than allow their heroes to experience any legal or electoral consequences, or emotional discomfort.
This is what happens when you have two nationalist, pro-war, pro-capitalist, pro-billionaire, pro-ICE, pro-AI, pro-prison, pro-apartheid parties.
This is what happens when you have two parties that believe that ignoring the needs of their own voters is their divine right.
This is what happens when the two parties’ devotees insist that its leaders be shielded from any consequences.
Politicians who say they oppose Trump and don’t like Netanyahu, and then vote to fund or invest in Trump and Netanyahu’s initiatives for global destruction and apartheid, can be written off right now as ridiculous. Actions speak louder than stump speeches. Actions speak louder than campaign websites and fundraising emails. Actions speak louder than AI-enhanced PR images. Actions speak louder than marketing copy.
Capitalists have reached a point where they cannot increase profits any further without mass murder, and crippling debt for everyone lucky enough to survive. This is the logical, inevitable endpoint of capitalism’s contradictions and perverse incentives. The economic collapse we are all now enduring was not caused by Donald Trump. The specific form of extreme neoliberal capitalism he now presides over has been in place for some 50 years, racing towards this disaster while the left has tried to turn it around. This self-destructive economic system was never going to last forever. We're trying to stay alive during its final stage.
Even its leaders and beneficiaries know capitalism can’t last forever. They know it will be either be brought down in revolution or in world war. This is why they take your money and put it into the Pentagon, into ICE, into policing, into prisons, into border walls, into concentration camps, into mass surveillance, into nuclear arsenals. And into security detail and private jets and bunkers for themselves. They have planned for inevitable collapse while convincing you to focus on bathrooms and the name of the Kennedy Center.
Oppose nationalism and embrace internationalism. Defund the pentagon, ICE and the police. Dismantle capitalism. Join boycotts of Big Tech. Support candidates, parties, and businesses who align with your values. Stop being frightened into supporting candidates, parties and businesses that are trying to kill you. Stop letting this stupid game destroy the next generation’s chances for survival.
