the mfs with control of the world's finances and resources are at Davos comparing right now to the 1920s. just watched a panel where Larry Fink compared the current moment to 1929; he even had to catch himself and paused when he realized he did it.

The best and most surprising part of Carney's speech is that he didn't pretend there was a "rules-based international order" until Trump came and ended it. He admitted the claim was always a fraud, but that the EU, UK and Canada affirmed the lie because it benefited them.

Trump's new exec order ties homelessness to crime&drug use, allows for forced institutionalization of unhoused as mentally ill, withdraws funding from states who do not have "anti-camping/loitering" laws. Will ICE get orders to round up the unhoused next? https://t.co/Hxy5EeCBij

Take the words of these people who have all of a sudden found their voice about a rigged international order with a pinch of salt. They are only speaking out this way because they are on the chopping block and Trump is unleashing on them.

We talk about "oh why do so many people not vote" ok well maybe it's because politicians will post something like this and then go and support increased ICE funding a week later. Like maybe these 2 things are connected somehow I dunno

Everyone praising Mark Carney’s speech as “bold,” “brave,” or “eloquent,” and treating it as evidence that the West can still rescue itself, is still misunderstanding the nature of the crisis. The “rules-based international order” didn’t erode gradually or mysteriously; it
