Do you know why it is cheaper to make vehicles in Canada, a country as modern as the USA? It's because of the universal healthcare. As long as every aspect of our lives is financialized, we will never be competitive in regards to manufacturing. Unless of course we legalize child factory labor 🙃

They have to hold on to power because giving it up is too dangerous

Every fascist regime is one that is always in crisis.

Gov. Gavin Newsom recently sent burner phones to major California business leaders with his number preprogrammed — paid for by his nonprofit, allowing him to communicate with executives without having to disclose the content publicly

The premise was that there really isn't a historical equivalent. The analogy being shit is kind of the point.

Like I said, hard to find a historical equivalent. Like which side would you compare the execution of landlords? The north paid the slavers restitutions instead.

That is a much better example. I will borrow this for the future. Thank you.

It's hard for Americans to think of a historical equivalent. Imagine if Texas managed to splinter off and join the UK common wealth during the Civil war.
