  • It’s just empty rhetoric to try to garner some kind of support from radicalists. It’s a power grab among right wingers who have nothing left to latch onto except hatred for an unknown, undefinable enemy.

    “Extinguish the left” is not really an attainable goal, just like no one can define “woke”, it’s whatever you want it to be. Just like fighting “terror” all over the world was stupid, fighting a “war” on drugs, it isn’t possible to “win” because it has no definable goal posts.

    Yet it’s dangerous talk because it means people will freak out and start attacking everyone they don’t like. Crazy people will go on a shooting spree, thoughts and prayers all around but nothing will change and we’re right back to where we started.

    Those that eat this up are disenfranchised, angry at something completely different that’s happened to them in life and they’re taking that frustration out on people that don’t even affect them because the manifestation of their frustration onto a person is easier for them to understand





  • It’s been that way. I ask myself this kind of question often, what do other major country blocks have to propel themselves into the future? There’s been nothing new and big enough to gain global traction in decades where as America constantly looks for ways to expand its portfolio and often takes neighboring countries with it.

    Look to major shakeups in labor and manufacturing next, China is not a good bet anymore so lots of it will move, plenty to Mexico or South America but unfortunately not much to the US still. Maybe chips because they will have massive subsidies for the security value of them but otherwise it’s still too expensive.

    What can Europe do? Maybe they will just have to accept the gradual slowdown as they wrestle with a lack of innovation
