There was a Cixin Liu shortstory about how someone privatized air so everyone had to live in phone booth sized things and if they went out they'd be in lifelong debt just for breathing.
As per a Junge Welt article on the same arrest warrant, the German prosecution called the accused and informed them of the impending arrest warrant. Not even the bumbling infamous Inspector Clouseau of Pink Panther fame would make such an asinine error, which leads one to conclude that German prosecutors have no intention of actually prosecuting this case. Since the call and the issue of the warrant, Polish authorities have not been able to locate the suspect (shocking /s).

They need a false flag to go into Ukraine because that's how NATO would do it - a false flag or atrocity propaganda. Westoids are only capable of projection.
Capitalism cannot compete with socialism. But of course these Wall Street ghouls will never admit that this is yet another admission that their system only enriches them at the expense of everyone else and the planet.
They probably just need some positive results to keep justifying all the spending the Biden regime still wants to go to Ukraine. It's election season in the imperialist heartland, and he's running as a war president so the war has got to be going well for him to have a chance.
The US has already demonstrated, by seizing Russian central bank assets denominated in USD, that the USD isn't worth the paper it's printed on and can't be trusted further than you can throw it.
The Euro is already getting hit hard by the growing trade and balance of payments deficit with regards to the USD, showing the world the Euro isn't a safe and trustworthy currency by unilaterally seizing the assets of a sovereign central bank would only make the problem worse and add longer term consequences.
I do have a grasp of what capitalist and socialist mean. I'm confused by your mixing and matching of terms. I'm consistently using Marxist definitions here.
France is a country with a capitalist mode of production.
China is socialist. China has home ownership for personal use, but no private land ownership and ever dwindling private ownership of the means of production. Homes for the purpose of living in, ie personal property, are not a means of production, and houses for rent for the purpose of enriching the owner at the expense of the tenant, ie private property, basically don't exist.
Markets have nothing to do with the distinction between capitalist and socialist modes of production, the ownership of the means of production and thus also the class in control of the state is the defining characteristic.

Khan got couped by the US for leaning toward non-alignment and trade with Russia. Will the US sponsored coup regime get couped themselves for a weapons deal with China?
Let's be real here, the Federal Republc of Germany has done nothing of importance since 1945 without at least consent, if not by the instruction, of the US empire. The post war industrialization was funded with US capital for the benefit of the US capitalist class, and now the deindustrialization is for the benefit (at least they perceive it this way) of the US capitalist class.
I think it would be more than embarrassing, it would be destabilizing to admit that the Federal Republic is ultimately little more than a US vassal.
Wasn't she just on Twitter calling for the genocide of Russian-heritage people? At least the greed makes sense.
Private property was a mistake.

Depending on where you are a light beer means different things. For example the US and Canada it means low calorie, in Germany it means low alcohol (but not alcohol free).
Session ales are also typically in the 3% range.
