yah. the trump tax cuts end on 1/1/2026, but honestly i think this is all bigger than that. they will just money print to keep the tax cuts like they did in 2017+

soy sauce is made in america (california) literally grow/export more soy than anywhere else

americans are so fucking stupid

it’s so fucked up because i genuinely think they want to bring manufacturing back because war. but like, if they bring manufacturing back no one wants to pay fair, livable wages so it’s all automation.

so cool we brought manufacturing back but it’s all machines.

and they don’t care. i don’t see how that shores up the american dollar and american work force if there’s 24%+ real unemployed.

ffs i know this is radlib as all hell but 2016, 2020 why didn’t bernie win?

for real. i’ve spent maybe like 8 hours today reading through all of it. it’s all reminiscent of Reagan/Volcker and abandoning the bretton woods system.

they’re remaking the global economy, again. the proles are going to have to pay for it, again.

capitalism is fucking stupid.

yep. the world system of perpetual US deficit is going to crash and the US will be left with no manufacturing, broke ass government, and no financial sector. i’m exaggerating but also not.

the more i read the more i really see this as Trumpists, neo-reactionaries, certain techbros, and others just being like “shut the fuck up wall street this is for your own good.”

i thought all of it was just shoring up funds to continue the 2017-2025 trump era tax cuts, but it’s way bigger than that. they’re legit trying to get all these other countries to gut interest rates and keep them forever bound to the US dollar.

article that really hones in exactly a lot of what you wrote. and thank you for posting your post too

what i still can’t understand is how is wall st. and his handlers okay with this? short-term mindset only? or are they truly thinking longterm?

because if trade deficits shrink that means less foreign money going into wall st. no way they’re okay with that?

i looked up quote, there’s more and wow god damn yes.

“Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia – the fruits of his genius for statesmanship – and you will never understand why he’s not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milošević.”

Steven King is well known as one of the greatest authors alive

Your argument would be more persuasive if you knew how to spell his name :)

He has a book On Writing that is very, very good. He goes through his writing process, discusses other authors, gives advice of the trade, etc. He openly admits he’s merely okay/good at writing and that there’s eons of better authors than him. He is being humble, but he’s not the greatest writer alive by any means. He talks a lot about luck, name recognition, etc. that continue to propel him, and other shit ass authors, ahead.

The Dark Tower series is fantastic.

Dark Tower rules. I still think Complete/Uncut The Stand is, bar none, the best shit he’s ever written without a doubt. I haven’t got to Fairy Tale yet tho.

wow so Lord of the Flies completely stole that plot-line from Yellowjackets?

authors can’t write anything original anymore smh smh

lol
