  • “Fascism is capitalism in decay”

    Turns out “capitalist democracy” is an oxymoron, because every business is a plutocracy/oligarchy, that rewards psychopathy because morality is less profitable, who inevitably end up using their capital to corrupt everything in their favor (politicians, regulators, media, military, the entire population, etc).

    It’s actually kind of mentally ill that everyone just accepts democracy can coexist alongside systemic structural inequality, but I guess religion already proves that humans are just talking apes who’ll believe anything.



  • Yeah, that’s just the economics of capitalist dictatorship, where the wealthy write the laws to benefit themselves.

    The problem with Musk much worse than that; he has numerous cases of fraud, corruption and other shady dealings that he has already admitted would have put him in prison if Trump didn’t win and let him gut them via DOGE.

    Then add all the debt recycling where he’s rolled up failed businesses into spacex, and all the dogfooding between like 10 companies who are artificially inflating each others revenues and valuations, and the fact he’s a paper-trillionaire means that this entire pyramid scheme is corrupt as fuck.











  • Your comments are far too arrogant for how completely ignorant they are.

    You wanna know why I believed that America would become a fascist dictatorship 25 years ago? Because of combining my opinion of watching Fox News (considering it to be fascist propaganda) with raw stats, like Fox News being the #1 cable news network, with numerous other opinion polls proving that R’s perception of events were dependent on Fox propaganda, divergent from both reality and D/I opinions of reality. I knew R’s were the most propagandized population in America because other populations opinion polling did not change anywhere near as significantly over time, nor did it mirror the changing narratives of propaganda. These have been reinforced continuously by the vast majority of both polling and other raw stats since then.

    In statistics, all data points are some abstract proxy that attempt to measure reality. They are not reality itself, and none of them can be trusted to provide some end all be all proof of reality. Even math itself is an abstract representation (language) we use to understand and communicate.



  • Yeah, capitalism has wholly captured and groomed the worst of the political class to the state and federal level, and everyone’s still acting like the average politician is just some ineffective idealist, instead of a white collar criminal positioned because they were corrupt.

    It’s like how people still default to “won’t someone think of the small businesses and competition” when regulations are mentioned. Everyone still acts like it’s the 50’s and we still have mom & pop style small businesses, when capitalism has already destroyed the lions share of small or family owned businesses, and achieved a functional-monopoly in every major industry.

    The last century of corporate propaganda was a roaring success.
