I speculated this wrecking ball approach to the US economy was an attempt to destabilize the world and marshall the forces of violent fascism, and make the battle for hegemony one of attrition since the Us no longer sees itself capable of competing with China’s manufacturing capabilities.

So, like, what does the average Joe think? That while everything around him comes crumbling down, all the trans and blacks will at least be put in their place?

I’m wondering if the debate around the seemingly confusing motivations are due to…too much of a materialist approach? I think it’s either that or absolutism when it comes to the dialectic and taking these thoughts to their logical conclusions

I said this with Kayne and was rather disappointed with the outcome.

I try to see the good in everything. While Kanye was a piece of shit for what he said, he did unintentionally (big emphasis on unintentionally) manage to point out the hypocrisy western media has.

Jerry Seinfeld and Amy Schumer could say the same horrific shit about arabs / Palestinians and never got their bank accounts closed or became social pariahs.
