![]() Again, this doesn’t justify Putin’s invasion, but it damn sure ought to make you understand that the black hat/white hat vision of this war is false and manipulative. In 2014, the Atlantic Council, the powerful Washington think tank, published a stirring piece praising Azov’s patriotism. Read this piece from VICE about how the neo-Nazi militia became respectable in Ukraine. ![]() The Azov Battalion is a longstanding anti-Russia militia made of actual neo-Nazis.That’s not Putinist propaganda: it’s true. Putin’s claims that Russia invaded Ukraine to “denazify” the country are absurd … but not totally removed from reality. Elizabeth Warren talking about how the state has to go after crypto now to force crypto companies to stop doing business with Russians. That is certainly their right, but listen to me, if you don’t think Woke Capitalism is preparing itself to cut any one of us out of the economy to punish us for being unpatriotic, bigoted, or whatever, you are fooling yourself. It is worth noting that only some of the withdrawal of US businesses from Russia is happening because of sanctions most of it is the business class deciding of one accord to punish Russia. As I have been saying, what is being done to the Russian people will ultimately be done to any and all of us here at home who get in the way of the ruling class in government and business. You watch: when our economy crashes because of all this, the ruling class, with Republican Party support, will construct a social credit system to control the dissent. Who knows how much longer he will be permitted to be on Fox…. He lays hard, too, into Republican leadership in Washington, saying that they are all screwing over their voters. The man is saying radical things about the ruling class. I really hope you will watch that Tucker segment. Two things can be true at the same time: that Vladimir Putin is a war criminal SOB, and that the American leadership class is driving our country into the ground for no good reason. Tucker Carlson was on fire again last night, talking about the tsunami of economic misery we’re about to suffer because of all this: Most people are just tired of it - except for the richest Americans, of course. ![]() ![]() My guess is that this is a reflection on twenty years of failed US warmaking. Think about what that says about support for our NATO commitments. While the class warfare aspect of these findings are important, it seems to me that of equal importance is the finding that even if war broke out in Europe, only half of Americans think the US should be involved. Still, the point is that those making the least money are the ones least eager to fight, while the wealthier you are, and therefore the more insulated from consequences, the more eager you are to fight. Mind you, if NATO is attacked, America has no choice but to fight. There it is: the poorer you are, the less eager you are to want to go off and fight this war. That “hick” has more common sense about what’s happening now than Sen. Ha ha, look at the hick, some of you are saying. He is a straight-outta-central-casting Deplorable. You are thinking: wow, what a crackpot, why listen to him? Well, aside from the fact that he’s right on this particular issue, you should listen because this man and his social class are the kind of people who are sent to fight America’s wars. He also holds odd beliefs, such as that Covid was engineered by the US Government and released deliberately into the population, and that mass shootings might be staged to justify taking away guns. When he’s not in the ring, Mitchell is a cattle farmer. ![]() He’s a working class white dude from Arkansas who was asked what he thought about the Ukraine situation. I can’t get this MMA fighter Bryce Mitchell off my mind. ![]()
