A) Very good George @GeorgeMonbiot. Now please advise your readers that the position, power, wealth and privilege of the 950 years old ruling regime in the UK, via their land-grabbing, resources-thieving, genocidal and crusading mindset is based upon nothing more than the self... B)..-interested application of a psychological concept - 'money'. They have used and continue to use a brilliant human invention, which could have long been used for good and to everyone's advantage, in a hideous, selfish and sociopathic way! Help pull the rug out from under...

A) You keep saying 'we' George @GeorgeMonbiot and assuming we're all complicit but the perpetrators are only a relatively small number of people who have a vile mindset going back 950 years. The Norman-Westminster/City of London Regime treated the people of these islands with... B)..their land-thieving, resources hoarding, genocidal, crusading mindset and then exercised it around the globe. They have spent centuries establishing a complex structure to reinforce and maintain their power and privilege; including creating a sanitised fantasy of their...

A)*Sigh* You keep missing the point Pod. Are there no non-white politicians, commentators and journalists defending, or ignoring the arguments against, ‘austerity’? Osborne and the Eton-CambOx-Whitehall Crew have caused more distress, destruction and death to white people in... B)..the UK than to others. What’s the point of criticising him because he’s white? The in-group creates and manipulates lots of out-groups to attack each other and leave them alone. You are behaving as programmed. But their wealth, privilege and power is all based upon a fraud...

A)Great article by @GeorgeMonbiot referring to the fab work of @guyshrubsole. The whole 954 years history of the Norman-Westminster/City of London Regime, beginning with William the Bastard and his thugs, has been the violent separation of the people of... theguardian.com/commentisfree/… B)..the UK from the land, and (leaving aside the global extension of this colonialist mindset for now) with the imposition of money and taxation, preventing them from meeting their normal, innate human needs.

A) I couldn’t have imagined when I was introduced to the work of Thomas Kuhn and Michel Foucault in 1980 that I would actually experience a paradigm shift or an episteme change respectively. However, major change is now occurring in economics due to Modern Monetary Theory... B) ..(MMT) - initially the work of Warren Mosler, aided by social media - made available by the internet innovation of Tim Berners-Lee. I wonder if it is a true paradigm shift though as it is the replacement of a body of contrived fantasy and knowingly dishonest information...

This State has always been synonymous with the interests of the English Norman-Westminster/City of London Regime via the issuance, control and taxation of ‘money’ and the violent separation of the people from the natural means of meeting their needs... ..Shaken slightly between 1945-1979: it regained control with the neoliberal project and the systematic proliferation of conservative metaphors. Its Achilles Heel is the obfuscated and inverted fact of Spend and Tax (by Tax to Spend myth) with its supporting toothless bogeymen...
