The central management is the government which largely acts as the management committee to resolve disputes between large capitalists.

Given the upvote ratio on the post, it's pretty clear that most people enjoyed seeing this. Maybe go do your pedantic gatekeeping somewhere else. The fact that you felt the need to write an entire diatribe about this is frankly incredible.

Your displeasure has been noted. Amusingly, you still haven't actually said what it is you define technology as. Surely, you can give a clear definition of what it is you think technology actually is.

Last I checked vehicles are a piece of technology, and a how a kind of a vehicle performs is very much a discussion about technology. I notice that you still failed to define what it is you think the word technology means.

How is this not technology news, what does the word technology mean in your mind?

Which would explain a lot of things about the state of Ukrainian defences, such as they are.

The fact that grabbing Ukrainian resources was an objective for the west isn't news. This has been publicly admitted by numerous officials since the war started.

Also, how much of it was embezzled along the way.

For context, Wikileaks revealed that USAID has given nearly half-a-billion dollars to Internews Network, a government-funded NGO. Internews Network has worked with over 4,291 media outlets, producing broadcasts reaching up to 778 million people and training over 9,000 journalists.

The organization has offices in over 30 countries, including the US, London, Paris, and regional headquarters in Kiev, Bangkok, and Nairobi.

Jeanne Bourgault, who pays herself $451k a year, heads the organization and has a history with USAID. Internews Network's website has recently removed bios of key people and board members, but records show the board being co-chaired by Democratic donors Richard J. Kessler and Simone Otus Coxe.

I love how you just throw terms around in an attempt make yourself sound smart. Nobody is appealing to authority here. What you're being told is that you should educate yourself on the subject instead of spewing ignorant nonsense. Read books from people who spent time studying these things, and try to use the few precious brain cells that you possess to comprehend what they say. You don't have to take them at their word. You can read the supporting evidence they provide, read what other researchers say, and then form an understanding of the subject. Or you could just continue being an ignorant clown.

Perhaps it's time to stop using appeals to purity and acknowledge that this is how capitalism functions in practice everywhere it's been tried. Entire books have been written on the subject of why capital concentration is a necessary product of capitalism, and how capitalists use their wealth in shape society in their own interest. The government ultimately represents the class that holds power, and in a capitalist society it happens to be the capital owning class. That's why even when regulations are enacted, they're always dismantled in the end.
