Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

Unfortunately, “Yo brother, legal team confirmed we can’t work with minors rn” is an instant classic

No one can be prepared for operation Epic Fury

Hegseth thinks he's a Shonen character emerging from a smoking crater laughing as he enters his final form but he's actually giving henchman who charges up for an episode and a half only to get dispatched in one shot as a commercial break lead-in gag

Call it end-times fascism, or Toscano's Late Fascism, there is a real crisis faced by capital but it is not merely a crisis of production and profit but an existential crisis, a crisis of climate, a crisis of futurity itself. Speculation reaches its end in the non existence of a speculative future

So instead we get war, death, apocalypse, rubble. This is ultimately all that fascism can actually produce, as its smartest people merely provide a figleaf, paving the way for its suicidal patriarchs to indulge in their death drives

The fash realignment ironically relied on the continued neoliberal US/Euro system in whose shadow it bloomed, its most venal ideologues taking the US have ruined the plan by accelerating it, they rolled the dice on countertevolution, but Trump is such a bad gambler he lost money owning the casino

In short, China is trapped in the US whirlpool currently sucking the entire world system down to the depths, without a clear way to shift and break away.

And the massive state spend construction boom of the 2010s was almost entirely turned into speculative complexes made with real concrete and steel, it is not repurposable

And the vast majority of basic industrial production has been pushed out of China itself, manufacturing outsourced to the rest of S East Asia. China may run a higher percentage of renewables every year in domestic energy production its manufacturing bases are still completely oil dependent

Theres not even really a way for it to raise the capital for war production w/o US finance structures and markets, the rising middle class is tapped out and GDP is on the decline, the state cant spend its way out anymore, in fact bills are coming due

China's economy is still built on US debt and dollars, it may have hinged away from US exports and expanded its extra-USian markets but it was a solid decade of continuing those processes before it could genuinely break with the US

Trump, the literally ultimate Boomer

Trump us a family annihilator capable of tearing the whole globe down with him. It is the total fantasy of patriarchal defeatism. At the end of your life get all your property buried alive beside you

Fascists are stupid whether they call themselves multipolar or antiimperialist, and the great power contradictions between US and China were always much more shallow than their infrastructural, economic and material codependence, hence China doing nothing for Iran and why the US can go full Samson

Surely this can't go on.

And yet it goes on

Anyway here's hoping the next time we hear her name it's because [long loud bleep]

Starting to think "this wouldn't happen if i was a man" and then slapping herself to safely maintain the cognitive dissonance

Imagining how fucking enraged Noem is to have been fired while Hegseth is still guzzling Wild Turkey at Mar a Lago and feeling some joy

Naser is fighting for every breath right now🚨

Neoliberal oroborism

Israel is announcing that the entirety of Dahieh is being ethnically cleansed a day after announcing that the entirety of South Lebanon is being ethnically cleansed.

“Save yourselves and evacuate immediately”

Hey, if you're feeling like life has passed you by and you're too old to start something new, remember that John Brown was 55 before he killed his first pro-slavery settler in the Kansas Territory. It's never too late to follow your dreams.

You know who I truly enjoy listening to but don't want to hear say a single word about David Graeber
