  • In the 1930s prescott bush and all his other wall street legacy family robber barron buddies got together and propositioned one of the most decorated generals in US history, Smedly Butler to lead their coup attempt and overthrow the FDR administration and impose a fascist nazi style regime where the intersection of wall street and military industrial power would be in complete control of the government and media. These ultra wealthy industrialists were all big supporters of adolf hitler and even hosted a rally for him in Maddison square garden. Butler played along with their scheme until the last minute when he went to the house unamerican activities committee and testified against their plot. HUAC deemed his testimony credible but did nothing to punish those who devised the coup. Most likely because they were in their pockets.

    Now fast forward 90 some years and the son and grandson of the coup’s main architect were both sitting presidents and if you’re paying attention you can clearly see that wall street military and prison industry profiteers own our politicians and are the ones who have the ultimate say in maters of legislation and policy. They own all the media outlets and since Reagan and Bush sr. both vetoed attempts to legislate fairness in media laws that were standard practice up until 1987 their news outlets just spew right wing corporatist(a synonym for fascism) propaganda and it is an objective fact that there is now no left party in the American political landscape.

    Wake up, you don’t know what youre talking about. The main reason it failed is because the president has no real power and is nothing more than a puppet owned by a group of war mongering psychopaths who spend more on weekend vacations than you could earn in a dozen consecutive lifetimes



  • Considering its apparent that those with massive amounts of capital have hijacked the system, if you you look at the wall street war profiteering industrialists relationships with our DOD, as well as every branch of our government and historical events such as the business plot, nixon shock and 8 years of the Regan administration i think its evident we live in a fascist authoritarian police state that works to violently suppress any leftist policy that Benefits working people. We have no left party in the US only a far right and center right. violent tactics are regularly used against peaceful demonstrators so anyone with a brain knows the system will use whatever tools are at its disposal to thwart change. So luigi seems to have said the quiet part out loud if he is indeed the perpetrator of the acts he allegedly committed.

    So there is really only one option besides violent revolution and thats a massive general strike. If at least 25% of the labor force refused to produce labor for as long as was needed to get demands met then that could work but i feel even that will be met with violence and martial law. So that puts us back to square one / the drawing board








  • If the universal law became such that those being systematically exploited and ultimately sickened and or killed by systemic injustice could target those benefiting from the injustice then those incentivizing and committing the act of social murder would be incentivized to rethink their approach to profiting off the death and suffering of poor and marginalized people.

    We seem to overlook that FDR’s new deal and the Fair Labor Standards act of 1938 was enacted as a compromise to prevent more violent rioting by the frustrated and exploited laborers during the gilded age. It was either the robber barons acquiesced to what was good for those doing the work giving them a fairer deal or those they were exploiting ruthlessly would have dragged them out into the streets and beaten them senseless or worse in front of their wives and children.

    Not only is it that murder is ok for everyone at a certain point but its that we are conditioned to praise retributive violence and killing so long as the ones being beaten maimed and or killed are marginalized people whom the ultra wealthy see as sub human and their casualty benefit their end goals. Like all the non violent labor and civil rights protestors who have ended up bludgeoned by batons and less than lethal munitions, or targeted by extra judicial unconstitutional surveillance and suppression tactics such as yale used against pro Palestinian demonstrators over the last year. There are too many examples of this double standard to go over without writing a book as thick as the king james Bible.



  • Sanders supporters literally sued the DNC and the case was dismissed by DNC legal counsel arguing they were under no obligation to enact the will of the people and had every right to make backroom Deals in dark rooms filled with cigar smoke and rich old men. We are living in fascism right now. Both parties are owned by the same wall street military and prison industry profiteers who also control all the main stream legacy media outlets. The idea that our democratic system still functions is foolishly naive



  • The principle being complete subservience to a group of wall street military and prison industry profiteers who have used their wealth to hijack our social institutions, our representatives and transformed the vast majority of news media in our country into propaganda dissemination outlets While also enforcing a system that legislates and bureaucratically incentivizes the deaths of poor and working class people including American citizens for profit while denying the reality that this is called social murder and is murder none the less. A principle completely lacking in principle. Id love to know what you consider to be moral with principles such as those.



  • Yeah they are probably lying. They can not know with 100% certainty that these giant asian hornets have all been eradicated in the us. They couldn’t get rid of something as benign as the spotted lantern fly or the marmorated stink bug but sure lets believe they got rid of a hornet as big as a humming bird that has facial recognition capabilities and can unalive people with a swarm no larger than 50 to 100 of the fuckers
