im talking about the viability of the US re-industrializing, not oil and gas. that is what i think medhurst has not studied in depth, i have yet to see any convincing arguments anywhere how the US will be able to properly re-industrialize.

please someone tell me why Richard thinks that this part of his hypothesis would actually pan out for the US of A.

he’s a journalist talking about something in an area in which he has no expertise so no i dont think he has a good reason for it

really makes me wonder if corbyn was a psyop the whole time lol

im still very nervous about iran abandoning hezbollah too, i really dont think they’ve shown themselves to be a solid ally in the last few years but i think them getting amerikkka to release their frozen assets just for negotiations to start shows they are actually in a very strong position

it’s hypocritical but i think signalling the pope signalling a sympathy for a more “socialist” ethos could potentially make it easier for very catholic populations to accept rule by an actual socialist government

@FloridaBoi@hexbear.net might be relevant information for you too:

i am familiar with solzhenidiot, his position is that the vast majority of people calling themselves MLs in the west are closer to anarchists than actual MLs. his view is that this happens because most westerners do not realize they are “bourgousie proletariat” and that their class is actually in opposition to the global proletariat, and so to become a proper ML they must actually realize their own class position and become a class traitor to actually properly develop ideologically. i would describe him as a 3rd worldist ML (as opposed to a 3rd worldist maoist) so he still holds the same position generally held among western MLs on AES but is very pessimistic about the chances of revolution in the first world.

i think some of his views are quite accurate, but i do not hold nearly the same level of pessimism, and he is a little too close to being a vulgar economist in that he refuses to moderate his language when he’s told he’s using terms that are too close to actual slurs like “westoid”, but if im being charitable to him i think it more likely stems from arrogance than lack of recognition of class struggle outside of vulgar econonism

edit: for proof of what im saying lol just look at his latest tweet

what the hell’s going on in the news mega for you to need to post this lol

just didnt want you to think your post was getting totally ignored on hb or that you had been banned lol

fyi grad and hb are having federation problems, hb can see stuff posted from grad but we arent seeing anything posted from hb

vivy: flourite eye’s song.

only 13 episodes, story is scifi/action, general plot is a robot whose original purpose is to make others happy with her singing, but she gets dragged into a world changing sequence of events. nothing super special about the show, a lot of the same themes about what it means to be alive/human like many robot stories but it’s done very nicely. characters are great, action scenes are great, and i love the songs too.

i thought he said something similar last year too

i mean just resign if you’re that scared he doesnt make any sense to me lol

such a weird individual i dont understand how you can talk about yourself like that and idk maybe do something else??? like is he the inside man of the irgc to ruin the reformists???

if anyone hear can read farsi the reporting is supposedly coming from the Tasnim and Fars news agencies

god if you’re real please strike this ogre down with another blood clot

i’d prefer something like “army of freedom loving people of the world” or something to that regard to really rub the amerikkkan’s nose in the dirt but still a banger quote regardless

fair enough

ok, thx for letting me know!

o7 probably a pretty healthy mindset to have, glad to have you back
