The “weak and strong” thing nazis do with Jewish people has always been one of the most ridiculous square circles imo.

They’re, apparently, weak, bad, lower, undesirable etc. As such, they should be killed to allow the master race to take charge of everything.

However, apparently, Jewish people are also in charge of all the banks, all the governments and every institution, other than nazi approved ones, as well as being in charge of everything. Ruling from the shadows.

However, by their own logic, that would make the Jews the master race.

I does have a certain “and then the whole bus clapped” energy to it.

Good thing they left reddit and went to 4chan where they could get away from ultra thirsty guys acting all kinds of crazy over women.

Maybe a shot of insulin, from the sounds of it.

Ultimately, it was their resistance and their lives that were irrelevant. America got their oil and the CIA got their opium fields. It was no longer worth the cost of keeping American troops there. So, they pass on the burden of protecting their stolen assets on to the native people. Its textbook neo colonialism.

Call that a loss if you like. Some people won big.

Well, its a good job that no one is claiming the fact that Europeans are more free is due to there being more regulations then, isn’t it? Otherwise that point might have been relevant and not just mildness regurgitation of propaganda.

Only on about every independent freedom index ever made. Although, im sure you’ll just declare the USA to be more free regardless.

So long as you have an endless stream of brain washed kids who are happy to die, as they paradise at the end of a barrel, and are happy the kinds of losses they do you’ll be fine

Facsism is just capitalism when you try to say no.

Understandably, workers didn’t like capitalism. So, when they found out about socialism, many of them grouped up and tried to say no. After which, facsism was made to counter this.

So, I mean literally fascism is just capitalism when you try to say no. You only get mercan staal neo classical economics because you say yes.

Outside of small city states, capitalism came from merchantislism.

Specifically, at the intersection where merchantislism and mass dispossession/theft of people’s land meet.

The only meaningful change is that the assets are now, mostly, intangible and you’re allowed to move to a different parish.

Please, the Ferengi weren’t forced birthers.

Its the rest of us who are Ferengi, on our good days. Those right wingers are even worse.

I see a fair amount of online adverts that use them. Usually the kind you might get orbiting an article of some kind, just using AI images as their hook.

They call countries banana republics, from what could be described as oil and banking republics with just a small modification or two, without a hint of irony.

No, no…God no.

I meant the left have to compromise with me.

You ran out of rum didn’t you James?

Oh ok, my bad.

I’m sure I’m thinking of a flack jacket with an extra plate of kevlar or metal ( a bullet proof vest).

It’ll probably react badly with all the heroin and barbs they take out there

To me, the most influential contribution in the last few decades would be “Capitalist realism: is there any alternative?”

Its very heavily influenced by Marx but it’s more like a philosophical intervention where I would see das kapital as more of a historical intervention. As in “erm no, this is the story of how we got here” (das kapital). Although, there’s plenty of philosophy of course. Its only about 5 pages long and there’s free readings of it on YouTube.

Although, imo, the real origin story of capitalism covered in das kapital, on a national scale, is something everyone should be much more aware of.

Tbf, those things have always been for stopping shrapnel and keeping your insides on the inside, if you do get shot.

They were never made to stop assault rifle rounds, even from the kind of distances intended for assault rifles.

And it ain’t what it ain’t.
