While I wouldn't call Pearl Harbour a false flag per se, it certainly served the purpose of one and likely could have been prevented. Same as 9/11 three generations later.

The US capitalist class did have plans to enter the war as well (specifically the Council on Foreign Relations), but needed some sort of trigger to get the citizens on board. Pearl Harbour definitely served that purpose. Although I haven't looked in to that time period in detail so I can't really say more than that at the moment.

It's almost beyond belief, but it's true.

Even the simplest softest anti-Zionist criticisms are turned into huge anti-semitic proclamations, and those in turn are beyond the pale in Germany. In the last week Israel flags have sprung up everywhere, as well as missing person posters for Israelis supposedly abducted by Hamas.

But that's as far as German support for Jews goes - or maybe one should call it German repentance for the crimes of the Nazis.

At the same time anti-semitic violence has always been happening in the background, but it's never really reported on or discussed. There are regular Nazi "cells" discovered within police and military, but it's always "isolated incidents." The constitutional protection agency (Verfassungsschutz) is run by Nazi adjacents. That's just the tip of the iceberg.

The only energy related effort the US is making and will ever make is getting more oil out of the ground to sell.

Slipped into?

I'm open to suggestions as to how one does that while class still exists.

That's not true at all, but the China bashing illness is immune to facts.

The specific laws vary of course, but a person cannot receive work related income from a foreign entity without reporting it correctly, both in the country in which the company is located and the country in which the employee is located. Even within the EU for example, with its freedom of movement for people, goods, and capital, cross border income must be correctly accounted for by both parties.

This is just a sovereign government doing what all sovereign nations do. If nations didn't do this the consequences for even just tax collection would be immense, not to mention the many other negatives.

There's no need to throw China bashing into every subject under the stars just because that's apparently what counts for journalism these days.

The colonizers must leave.

No. I don't trust the Swiss. They're tied up with US intelligence and they'll do anything for money (that's why they're always neutral). I've gotten shit on here before for saying Protonmail might be a honeypot but I'm sticking by it.

All countries will confiscate illegally obtained income. Want to work cross-border? Do it with the proper visas, permissions, tax reporting, residencies, etc. There's no story here, just more China hate to help beat the drums of war.

This person is talking out of their ass.

I guess you could make a really stretched semantic argument that surplus isn't the correct term, as it implies that the labourer also receives some of the value of their labour. Even so, the labourer produces something of value, which an owner then reaps the rewards of. That's surplus value.

I guess you could also make a historical argument in that the concept of surplus value only came about contemporaneously to wage labour, but that's also quite weak. Value and labour existed before wage labour, so surplus value also existed, regardless of when it was first formally conceptualized.

The privately owned permanent war economy continues to eat its own tail.

The "harm reduction we just have to get him elected and then we'll push him left" blue maga president everyone.

Science is not decided in a courtroom.

I'm not sure about clean SS as a whole but a lot of people are trying to give the 14th Galician a clean slate.

Politico's corporate owner Springer likely got seed money from the CIA, in exchange for an uncompromising pro-US perspective.

The German left is probably as broken and coopted as in the US. Most didn't even care when a court essentially declared anti-capitalism of any kind unconstitutional by pointing to the constitutions enshrining of property rights.

The Nazis never lost, they just got slapped on the wrists and were told to be more discreet and tactful about their imperial interests.
