Currently, another struggle for supremacy between USA and Russia in a 'Cold war 2' is happening.

A 🧵looking into 4 possible pivots that could exacerbate WWIII
USA vs China
EU-US-UK-NATO vs Russia
France vs Germany
BRICS vs US hegemony
#UK #US #EU #abolishNATO #Ukraine #Russia Image
1) The China pivot. Western governments and their stenographers in the corporate media always claim China is supposedly a "threat" carrying out "aggression"

What we are almost never shown is a map of the 41 US military bases surrounding China and creating trade choke points Image
The US claims justification of their 41 bases due to Chinese long-range missiles being able to attack Asian countries and even Australia, but why build bases all over the pacific and Asia..? Image

Climate change over thousands of years is caused by tectonic plate movements and is something humans can't change but some can profit from by convincing others it is our fault

Adding 10% 'NET co2' to the carbon sink in 250 years is our fault

#UK #ClimateScam #EU #abolishNATO Image
1) A world powered by Nuclear Fission by 2035 and He3 Nuclear fusion by 2060 would be the fastest, safest, cheapest, least materials used and least pollutant way possible to help get the world to net-zero co2 and eliminate record profits from corrupt energy companies Image
2) Local food growing and better land management not record profits. Humanity was locally self-reliant for thousands of years, until the big Agri biz, international shipping and supermarkets came along to grow their profits and destroy local environments at the same time Image

It's not as simple as 'Russia invaded Ukraine'. This is a deep complex wrestle for the power of Ukraine between 3 factions. The Nazi Banderites, the US-funded Melnyk and Russia defending itself from the Banderites and Melnyk

1) The Revolution of dignity, a gov and military coup of Ukraine from 2013 was deliberately instigated and funded by:

US National Endowment for Democracy
USAID (US-backed political candidates)
George Soros (funded institutions and protests)
NATO (trained army personnel) Image
2) EU leaning Poroshenko took power illegally by overthrowing Eurasian-leaning Yanukovych
who canceled signing the EU AA agreement which would’ve led to EU membership

The coup announced live the day before in the Ukraine parliament starting off the Euromaiden protests of 2013 Image

🧵 — How the Super-Rich Control the U.S. Government [excerpted]:

“… almost all of the thousand-or-so individuals who control the U.S. Government are billionaires. They especially control international corporations. Those few people dominate both Parties.”
The U.S. Government tries to hide how obscenely top-end the nation’s wealth-distribution is; but one remarkably clear presentation of it (the U.S. private-wealth distribution) was the web-page from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System that
presented an “Overview” of “Distribution of Wealth” starting in “1989:Q3” and extending up till “2021:Q2”

1/4 Every every major pogrom in Ukraine during the Holocaust, including those in Lviv, Babi Yar, Kamianets-Podilskyi, and Vinnitsa; every act of ethnic cleansing; and every mass murder, was co-plotted by and reported to monstrous Nazi Stepan Bandera. @StephenKing #denazification Image

Do people in the East want the free market? Opinion polls taken in late 1993 in Russia showed only 27 percent of all respondents supported a market economy. By large majorities, people believed that state control over prices and 1/4
over private business is "useful," and that "the state should provide everyone with a job and never tolerate unemployment." In Poland, 92 percent wanted to keep the state welfare system, and lopsided majorities wanted to retain subsidized 2/4
housing and foods and return to full employment (Monthly Review, 12/94). "Most people here," reports a New York Times Moscow correspondent (6/23/96), "are suspicious of private property, wonder what was so bad about a system that 3/4

What distinguishes fascism from ordinary right-wing patriarchal autocracies is the way it attempts to cultivate a revolutionary aura. Fascism offers a beguiling mix of revolutionary-sounding mass appeals and reactionary class politics. The Nazi party's full 1/4
name was the National Socialist German Workers Party, a left-sounding name. As already noted, the SA storm troopers had a militant share-the-wealth strain in their ranks that was suppressed by Hitler after he took state power. Both the Italian fascists and 2/4
the Nazis made a conscious effort to steal the Left's thunder. There were mass mobilizations, youth orga-nizations, work brigades, rallies, parades, banners, symbols, and slo-gans. There was much talk about a "Nazi revolution" that would revitalize society, 3/4

Once the capitalist restorationists in Eastern Europe and the for-mer Soviet Union took state power, they worked hard to make sure that the new order of corporate plunder, individual greed, low wages, mindless pop culture, and 1/4
limited electoral democracy would take hold. They set about dismantling public ownership of production and the entire network of social programs that once served the public. They integrated the erstwhile communist countries into 2/4
the global capitalist system by expropriating their land, labor, natural resources, and markets, swiftly transforming them into impover-ished Third World nations. All this was hailed in the U.S. corporate-owned press as a great 3/4

What happened to the U.S. businesses that collaborated with fascism ? The Rockefeller family's Chase National Bank used its Paris office in Vichy France to help launder German money to facilitate Nazi international trade during the war, and did so with 1/4
complete impunity. Corporations like DuPont, Ford, General Motors, and ITT owned factories in enemy countries that produced fuel, tanks, and planes that wreaked havoc on Allied forces. After the war, instead of being prosecuted for treason, ITT collected $27 2/4
million from the U.S. government for war damages inflicted on its German plants by Allied bombings. General Motors collected over $33 million. Pilots were given instructions not to hit factories in Germany that were owned by U.S. firms. Thus Cologne was 3/4

Much production in East Germany was dismantled to prevent competition with West German firms. This was especially evident when collective agriculture was broken up to protect the heavily sub-sidized and less productive private farms 1/4
of West Germany.8 Without making compensation, West German capitalists grabbed almost all the socialized property in the GDR, including factories, mills, farms, apartments and other real estate, and the medical care system— assets 2/4
worth about $2 trillion—in what has amounted to the largest expropriation of public wealth by private capital in European history. The end result of all this free-market privatization in East Germany is that rents, once 5 3/4

Since the overthrow of communism, free-market right-wing forces in the various Eastern European countries enjoyed significant financial and organizational assistance from U.S.-financed agencies, such as the National Endowment for 1/5

Third World revolutionaries are branded as the enemies of stabil-ity. "Stability" is a code word for a society in which privileged social relations are securely entrenched. When popular forces mobilize against privilege and wealth, this causes "instability," 1/4
which is judged to be undesirable by U.S. policymakers and their faithful flacks in the U.S. corporate media. Here we have a deceptive state of affairs. What poses as a U.S. commitment to peaceful nonviolent change is really a commitment to the violent 2/4
defense of an unjust, undemocratic, global capitalism. The U.S. national security state uses coercion and violence not in support of social reform but against it, all in the name of "stability," "counterterrorism," "democracy," and of late and more honestly, 3/4

The former communist nations are being recolonized by Western capital. Most of their foreign trade is now controlled by multinational corporations. Like Third World countries, they are increasingly deprived of each other s 1/5
markets. The once heavy and mutually beneficial commerce between them has been reduced to a trickle, as their economies get tied into the investment and extractive needs of global capitalism. Instead of mutual development, they are now 2/5

We hear a great deal about the crimes of communism but almost nothing about its achievements. The communist govern-ments inherited societies burdened with an age-old legacy of eco-nomic exploitation and maldevelopment. Much of precommunist Eastern Europe, as 1/4
with prerevolutionary Russia and China, was in effect a Third World region with widespread poverty and almost nonexistent capital formation. Most rural transportation was still by horse and wagon. The devastation of World War II added another heavy layer of 2/4

The overthrow of Eastern European and Soviet communist gov-ernments was cheered by many left intellectuals. Now democracy would have its day. The people would be free from the yoke of communism and the U.S. Left would be free from 1/8

Conservatives in the Western nations utilize diluted forms of the fascist mass appeal. In the USA, they propagate populist-sounding appeals to the "ordinary Middle American" while quietly pressing for measures that serve the interests of the wealthiest 1/4
individuals and corporations. In 1996, right-wing Speaker of the House of Representatives Newt Gingrich, while proffering a new rollback agenda that supposedly would revitalize all of society, announced "I am a genuine revolutionary." Whether in Italy, 2/4

Throughout Eastern Europe and the former USSR, many people grudgingly admitted that conditions were better under communism (New York Times, 3/30/95). Pro-capitalist Angela Stent, of George-town University, allows that "most people 1/5
are worse off than they were under Communism .... The quality of life has deteriorated with the spread of crime and the disappearance of the social safety net" (New York Times, 12/20/93). An East German steelworker is 2/5
