  • EU is a giant mess at this point, and it’s really not clear to me how it’s going to move forward. The EU doesn’t appear to have a coherent strategy on how to deal with the US, Russia, or China. It’s becoming geopolitically irrelevant, and the economy is going into a recession. The apparatchiks running the project don’t seem to have any bright ideas or even basic awareness of the problems EU is facing.


  • The US worked hard since WW2 to ensure that Europe would be politically subservient to the US. The Marshall Plan indebted Europe to the US, and NATO made Europe militarily dependent. Such economic and military dependence necessarily led to Atlanticist politicians rising to the top. Incidentally, the EU makes the whole problem worse because the bureaucracy there is not accountable to the people living in individual European countries.

















  • Reading Marx is like unearthing the Necronomicon in a university library, a forbidden text that lays bare capitalism’s inner workings. But the true horror lies in realizing you’re surrounded by people who treat exploitation as ‘just how things work.’ Suddenly the world reveals itself as a self-sustaining asylum, where the so-called ‘rational’ diligently reproduce the madness of the system.
