This is maybe a bit too conspiratorial for my liking, but I heard this take:

RFK Jr. has said something about how everyone will have a wearable medical device soon. Him and others also want lists of people with certain medical diagnoses.

Florida has recently immunized doctors from wrongful death/malpractice leading to death lawsuits.

The research institution doing a lot of stuff for Neuralink is very close to this new concentration camp.

I don't think kids should pay taxes or have jobs. Some kids aren't interested in baseball or poetry. Some aren't ready to date, others don't want to. Some need assistance with everyday things. Let kids be kids.

In all seriousness though, this is the same kind of rhetoric which lead the Nazis to categorizing neurodivergent people as Untermenschen and killing us.

Yeah NYC just rolled out garbage bins like a year ago and pretended like it's some new invention.

That's just how US people are raised.

As with every other "crisis" capitalism faces, the solution is simple: no more capitalism, no more crisis.

“A reduction in the share of workers can lead to labor shortages, which may raise the bargaining power of employees and lift wages — all of which is ultimately inflationary,” Simona Paravani-Mellinghoff, managing director at BlackRock, wrote in an analysis last year.

Yeah, fuck that babbling bourgeois bullshit. Fun fact though, after plague killed so many people in Europe, the surviving serfs (and their more immediate descendants) had an unprecedented level of power and agency over their living and working conditions.

In terms of the mainstream economic metrics liberal economists always like to cite, Ukraine is the worst performing nation in the world since the Yeltsin coup. You can even ignore the last four years to take the war and covid out of the picture, the story remains the same.

Out of all the formerly Soviet states, Ukraine is the closest to the US, is portrayed as being the most "western," and is the one which gave up its resources to western [allied] kleptocrats.

Meanwhile the post Soviet states which kept some level of resource and economic nationalism, and while capitalist at least have a national bourgeoisie rather than an Atlanticist one, are much better off in terms of their real economies and sovereignty.

Reminds me of the time Germans turned off their lights one evening to show Putin how upset they were.

Performative malarkey.

"We don't want to live in a world where the USians are the dominant country," reply billions.

If he had opened Russian markets to exploitation by Wall Street they wouldn't have cared.

Western libs still look back fondly on the Yeltsin years...

Last I checked, neither Russia nor DPRK have any law that requires them to follow sanctions made up by the USA.

Oh great, even more lies from German state media. This AfD group had no official invitation from the Chinese government, nor did they meet with Chinese government officials. DW is really trying their best to push horseshoe theory on us, and it would be laughable if people didn't take it seriously.

The last paragraph referencing the Holodomor, which is a hoax, and as is refuted in the breakdown I linked. I haven't looked into the various wage systems the Soviet Union experimented with so I can't speak to that.

To be a reactionary is to seek to conserve the current structures of power, ie. to defend capital, and in so doing to oppose revolutionary and even non-radical progressive liberal movements. It is not reactionary at all to look back on revolutionary movements in a positive light.
