      There’s a really good interview with colonel Lawrence Wilkerson who was the former Chief of Staff to the Secretary of State where he talks about how the US has full capture of the European political class. So, what we see happening in Europe isn’t too surprising.

        I know, I often find those channels a lil bit to right wing, bordering on fascist but I live in Europe I know how they work. I just hate that he has climate change deniers on his channel it’s incredibly harmful.

        I also don’t see the AfD as an alternative outcome for Europe. Theyre kind of fucking stupid and electing them as an alternative is as dumb as electing Donald Trump.

          Not saying you all must, but things won’t get better without organizing, until then it will keep moving right until all the mainstream parties are indistinguishable from fascists (which is already happening in many places, to some degree)

            Yep. I totally agree, people in politics also tend to not want to be wrong, because at the end of the day a victory in politics means you get a lot of access to power people start just using ideologies to win arguments instead of really trying to understand the thoughts and meaning behind them.

      No they aren’t. The Dutch just pulled their gold reserves out of the US. The tech bros and Trump are TRYING to crash the dollar. Trump has said that he likes the dollar going down because he is making money.

      This is why they push crypto. People don’t understand the crash that is coming. At least after the great depression and the 2008 financial crisis we were never questioning the dollar.

      When this next crash happens, all that matters are assets. We will have new money. They have said this, project 2025 has said this, Peter Thiel has said this, it is objectively happening.

          There is no doubt that people will fight. The major problem is everyone is just watching the enemy dig in, organize, arm themselves, and sabotage us before acting.

          For the US anyway, we are broken in to almost thirds. 1/3 hate it, 1/3 love it, and 1/3 literally don’t know anything is happening right now. The ultra rich fractured us really well. Other countries will be better off because you guys still have free healthcare and education which makes your populations INCREDIBLY smarter than a normal american. Don’t ever give those up

            I know. I’ve been trying to counter this shit for ages. It’s why I stayed away from so many orgs.
