Global movements don’t just happen by design. We got here because of decades of fiscal and social policies that hurt working people. The same people in charge of those policies, also handed over the keys to Russian oligarchs, who are deep in US investment. See NY real estate.
So spare me w/this too smart by half message linking left movements to Putin. Left movements are reactionary to the neoliberal capitalist policies that turned the US into its own oligarch, in part because our neoliberals created openings for Russians to grab parts of our economy
No matter how hard neoliberals and their corporate media partners try to quash this movement- through killing net neutrality, spreading fear based false messaging, smearing leaders- it doesn’t eliminate the cause of the global movements: vast income inequality.
Putin didn’t create any movements. He tried to take advantage of them. But the movements are there because of corporate policies that created global oligarchies. Specifically in major US cities, you didn’t see lawmakers crackdown on Russian oligarchs driving up real estate?
