Wait, what? I didn't know releasing the Epstein files, bombing muslims, and not ending the war in Ukraine on day one but instead committing more billions to arm them was in Project 2025. Totally missed that ...

Nice attempted dodge ... but I'm pretty sure everyone knows you were referring to the now nonexistent US - UK relationship. Which, I don't disagree.

You nailed it:

 
 

The UK has decoupled from it's nuclear arsenal from the U.S. and partnered with France pursuant to the Northwoods Declaration. Officials cite "that the United States is no longer seen as quite a reliable defense partner."

Not to mention obstructing criminal investigations.

That you, Elon?

 

Add, shamelessly enriching the elite at the expense of the people.

And, oh yeah, enabling genoocide.

Together with 24/7/365 capitalist propaganda fire hosed into our faces from the time we're born.

Let me introduce sociopath theory.

Their lack of morals allows them to rapidly accumulate money and power. Once entrenched, they continue amass wealth and power far beyond what is healthy for functioning societies. People don’t check this accumulation because individually they are moral humans who it pains in the extreme to seriously injure another human on their own (Luigi is an extreme exception driven by unbearable pain). But, when it gets bad enough, the poor, the losers in the sociopath race, normally isolated, begin to bond together to protect themselves from predation. This bonding together decreases the individual emotional burden of doing violence. People mob up .. emboldened by those around them. At a certain point, it goes critical and elite heads roll far and wide.

At that point, the sociopaths are purged and the moral can go back to some form of just governance for a decade or two until the sociopaths begin to claw it all back.

Que the “ableist” hate mail.

 

Bury him in the martian dust as an example for future humanity

 

This became easy to predict about 15 years into the neoliberal project.

It’s the regime’s new economic paradigm.
