AMONG THE TOPICS DISCUSSED:
• The West’s elites complete disconnection from reality and criminal indifference to the lot of ordinary people
• The effects of having the West/US controlled by a corrupt “Bubble” of self-perpetuating privileged and ultra-wealthy insiders.
• How rotten leadership is inevitable under an advanced capitalist regime (imperialism)
• Realities of the Ukraine war, the Russian options

LARRY C JOHNSON—I am not suggesting that the United States is on the verge of a collapse akin to what happened to the Third Reich in May 1945, but I do believe that the era of the United States invading other countries at will and overthrowing governments not willing to genuflect at the altar of U.S. power is over. The war in Ukraine has laid bare the weakness of the United States to control the international arena.

CALEB MAUPIN—Most people remain confused as to the role of Trotskyism in the Communist movement. In this chat, Caleb talks about Trotsky’s split from the Stalinist wing of the Bolsheviks, his exile and ulterior career in opposition to the Soviet Union (a supposedly bureaucratized state socialist regime with a supposedly new ruling class). Eventually, different factions of Trotskyism became anti-communist agitators (which suited the capitalists fine), and later, some of Trotskyist leading intellectuals abandoned Marxism altogether and became the notorious Neocon phenomenon of rabid US imperialism at any cost.

What would a Russian defeat mean for the people of the West?
12 minutes readTHE SAKER—Now I submit that anybody with a modicum of information and intelligence will agree that the gang of woke freaks currently running the USA and almost every EU country out there doesn’t give a damn about the people they rule over: they see them only as means of production, in other words, as slaves who need to be given sufficient amounts of (bad) food and immense amounts of (truly demonic) “entertainment” to keep them nice, and happy and, above all, obedient and ignorant.
