on one hand, yes: people with strong Cluster B personality disorder tendencies (well, narcissistic and anti-social at least) tend to float to the top in capitalist societies. On the other hand no, because these diagnoses are harmful for us poors, and can be used to deny necessary care. Borderline personality disorder is an especially common misdiagnosis for autistic women, and the drugs they pump all of us bpds with do more harm than good and therapists specializing in dialectical behavior therapy are few and far between. In my case I got overmedicated and undertherapized, and eventually just dumped and told to get a job. (/rant).
goodbye, designated fall guy. know that long after you're gone and working in your new cushy political or financial position, the corruption itself will stay. and that's what we're all all about here at Western Democracy LLC! we thank you for your service.
And also the elected leaders of my own country, putting all their eggs into the petrodollar basket and all our money to the endless void of corruption that is the Ukrainian state apparatus.
This is amazing. You are so absolutely frothing at the mouth and cocksure about Russian evilness and Ukrainian righteousness, yet completely and utterly wrong about everything. Tell me, under which rock do you live? Or is the absolute onslaught of propaganda and brainwashing in the west reached the point where its recepients willfully deny reality?
Also please calm down, you might have an aneurysm. And we surely wouldn't want that would we?
hell yeah, time for the disgusting poors like me to die of hunger. thanks representative democracy and capitalism, you've done it again! western values of freedom and democracy in action
Arch with a makeup in a vibecoded repo posing as a legitimate distro, whose only claim to fame is an injection of fascist money? get that shit out of here
Same here, though imo first the Ukrainians would need to kick out the US/NATO-backed fascists that are pretending to be a sovereign and functioning state.
It's genuinely kinda funny how all the supposedly leftist media I started to follow after Oct. 7th because of their more pro-Palestine stance have been turning out to be just liberals.
defending fascist, far-right states are we? the carnage must continue, unnumered more innocents must suffer and die before the modern liberal can admit they've been lied to by their own governments? i know by experience that it sucks to own up that you've been had (i used to be a unquestioning slava ukrainer) but admitting the problem exists is the first step towards fixing it. in the fight against imperialism both Ukraine('s current government) and Israel (the entire settler-colonial project) are deeply on the side of imperialism, as well as being absolutely fascist states. neither can bring peace for their people or anyone else involved, because they both only exist to provide war for US imperial ambitions.
Ah heck. Thanks, I just realized how that whole "the Europeans" sentence is just wrong, and kinda shitty way of thinking abou the whole issue. Should really stop and think before voicing every thought, huh?
Elaborate on this, please. Broad, sweeping statements such as mine can be extremely erroneous. I know that Finland's welfare capitalism has been described and sold to its recepients as "socialism" when it was just imperial spoils extracted from the global south.
Oh heck, got baited. Well Chat Control is coming back in some form or another, I'm like 99% sure it's gonna happen. doesn't matter what the people might actually think, the dear leaders are going to run it through nonetheless.
Yes the Europeans have never trusted communists that was wrong. I agree that the political representation and activity of communist parties in larger Europe is most likely low, as it is in Finland (especially in rural areas, such as mine). I wouldn't extrapolate the same attitudes to Russia, where the local party seems to still be the second largest in the country. The CPC has nearly a hundred million members. I wouldn't call those "dead".
Truly eloquent, and also almost expected. A well put-together, coherent argument altogether. You would never be mistaken, right?
Edit: also "my internet"? You really did come out with the brainworms blazing, didn't you? What's next, homophobia and dehumanization?
It says the EU Foreign Ministers are meeting soon to discuss "sharing the burden" of illegality of this action. It seems, were this to go through which I very much fear it will, our leaders are doubling down on war, while increasing repression to dissidence at home with eg. mass surveillance, and by outlawing civilian organizations and individuals with bogus charges while seizing their assets and denying banking like with many pro-Palestine cases. With the help of international banking institutions, of course.
Surely there are more concerning issues for the European people, like the global food shortage looming in the very near future caused by the war the EU countries' closest allies started in the middle east which stopped the production of nitrogen fertilizer used globally due to its manufacturing being tied to the fossil fuel industry and refinement process. Most NATO countries failed to object to this war, and even assisted in the act. As it so happens the war the EU is preparing to double down on is being fought against the largest exporter of both said fertilizer and wheat, who just recently stated its unwillingness to sell its fertilizer to the EU, most likely due to the economic sanctions and other actions EU has taken against it in this war. At the same time this exporter has strengthened its ties to China, the second largest (maybe actually the largest already, not sure) economy in the world, and the largest productive force in the world. Its economy is not in shambles, and will not be in shambles due to this war, or any other feeble attemps the western world order can attempt to make to further it.
No, it is the west whose economies are in shambles, and due to the aggressive policies of deindustrialisation these countries have gone through for a while now, who have relied on the export of capital through the US dollar's world reserve currency status and UNBEATABLE ARMADA (recently exposed as a paper tiger) of the US military might, who now have no hope of rebuilding those economies without heavy change of internal and external policies. As it seems to be, that is not happening. The US has already thrown the Euro countries under the bus on the financial market (through strange Japanese Yen finance capitalism shenanigans) and blown through EVERYONE'S supplies of modern munitions in Iran with their war of aggression, and they have no hope of rebuilding those in any reasonable time frame as modern militaries require rare earths, and neither US nor EU have enough infrastructure to mine, refine or produce their own components for said militaries. China's output alone cannot be matched by these powers.
European civilians, the working class and those unable to work also, starting with the most vulnerable will bear the brunt of the impact. Mass unemployment and poverty and famine, with increasing governmental repression to keep the ruling class safe from the population's rage and demands for governmental reform. First they came for the socialists etc. The existing forms of social aid will stop working, and eventually there must and will be civilian political organization that is ready and willing to engage in armed class conflict, working outside and independently the existing social and political systems building its own elections and democratic processes for societal representation. The capitalists will never let you vote their power away using the same systems they built and they control. They'd literally rather let you die.
My question for the European worker is then why wait? Must countless more suffer and die before it is clear that capitalism is the main thing hindering most of our well-being? When will the European learn humility, and admit to the amount of suffering their own states have wrought globally, and admit that they too could be and have been mislead? Change is possible, capitalism doesn't have to be the end of history. Though time is running out. An ecocatastrophe, caused by human-accelrated climate change, will drive ecocide. Countless people will die and be displaced, with some expecting the athmosphere to turn toxic for human life due to the amount of CO2 by the 2050s.

Well that's just an outright and blatant lie.
