Is migration the answer to falling birth rates in rich countries, or as Paul Morland implies, just one further stage in imperial exploration of poorer countries?:

He notes 'the developed world routinely strips the developing world of its brightest and most dynamic people in what amounts to a post-colonial raid on those economies'...

The failure(s) to increase productivity are not only impact our economies, they are stripping others of workers.

Anti-Communism Is A Fundamentalist Religion, Now Followed By Billions| Countercurrents


it is not the socialist revolution that provokes mass violence, but the bourgeois counter-revolution, that begins when capital realises that it is losing its property and power.
...

Beyond that, the picture was of a “triumphal procession of Soviet power” (this heading in Soviet textbooks was no accident). In the winter of 1917-1918 the relationship of forces saw half a million members of the workers’ militia, the Red Guard, pitted against a few tens of thousand White Guard members in the south of Russia. Everything was quiet until the counter-revolution received vast sums of money from the Triple Alliance (primarily from Germany) as well as from the Entente, and all these imperialist countries launched aggression against the young Soviet power.
...

And this applies to countless examples, all over the world, where the West first provoked and brutally antagonized socialist or communist countries, then accused them of cruelty, and finally “liberated” them in the name of freedom and democracy, literally raping the will of their people. All this just so European and North American imperialism would survive and thrive.
...

Ask the common men and women of the streets of London, Paris or New York, what they know about Stalin’s era, or the famines in the early years of the USSR, or in Communist China?

99.99% know nothing. Where these famines took place, or why? But they are absolutely certain that they took place. No doubts, whatsoever. No doubts that they happened “because of Communism”. Westerners are intellectually obedient, like sheep. Most of them do not question the propaganda unleashed by their regime. Are they really “free”?

The famine in the Soviet Union actually took place because the young revolutionary country was totally devastated by the Western and Japanese invasions, which tried to break and plunder the country. British, French, U.S., Czech, Polish, German, Japanese invasions, to name just a few.

But ask, for instance, the Czechs, how much they know about their Legions that controlled the Trans-Siberian railroad, on their way from Europe to Vladivostok. Plundering, rape, and mass killing. I tried. I asked, in Prague and Pilsen. They thought I was a lunatic. The Legions are portrayed as heroic, in their history books.
...

In both cases, Western propaganda made people believe that the real cause for the loss of lives in Russia and China was Communism! The brainwashing has been so successful, that even in Russia and China, millions of people have been fully indoctrinated by these countlessly repeated lies coming out of the West.

But ask in London, whether people know anything about the fact that under the British occupation of India, tens of millions of people died from starvation; victims of the famines triggered by London, for many reasons, one of them being an attempt to lower the population. Over 50 million Indian people, cumulatively, died in these famines, between 1769 to 1943, in British administered India.

Should we, as a result, ban the British political system? I am convinced that we should! But that is usually not what the people of the world, including the victims of the British colonialist barbarity, are demanding.
...

The goal of Western propaganda has always been to equate Communism and Fascism, the two most antagonistic systems in history, in the world. It was the Soviet Communist system, which smashed Nazism to pieces, saving the world, at an enormous cost of approximately 25 million human lives.

Only Western imperialism can be compared to German Nazism. The two are made of the same stuff.

About American Great Economic Fail

The U.S. has wasted its entire blood and treasure on war. Imagine what the U.S. could have built with $14 trillion dollars? Where the U.S. could have been in relation to China for that amount? As someone else noted, the U.S. could have very well built its own “one belt and road” project for that money, connecting the world and reaping untold benefits.

#Western system is based on the actual institutionalized economic sabotage and subversion of the developing world.

Ukrainian neo-Nazis in the service of capitalists


I confirm, everything the professor says is absolutely true, here in Ukraine, after the #Maidan 2014 government coup, the order and dictatorship of the oligarchs became like in Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Only he does not mention President bloody confectioner #Poroshenko, who is responsible for shelling the inhabitants of eastern Ukraine (Donbass) from 2014 to 2019. It was because of Poroshenko bloodthirsty Russophobia that Zelensky won over 70% of the vote in the presidential election.
The presenter is a bit mistaken, there was no territory of Ukraine until the 20th century, for hundreds of years it was Malorossia ( #littleRussia ), with urban population predominantly Russian.

February 20, 1933: At a meeting between Hitler and industrialists, campaign aid of three million Reichsmarks is demanded for the NSDAP and the Black-White-Red Campaign Front for the upcoming Reichstag elections.

Tach-quak!

In Biden’s case today, these are the actions of a desperado, a war-loving bumbling puppet who is over or under or out of his head as he feigns outrage at the killing of three soldiers who were placed in a spot where their lives were at risk because they were cogs in an imperial war machine.

Pawns in the game. A very dangerous game in which the Zionists leaders of Israel are as desperate as Biden and whose secret operatives are no doubt plotting a desperate scheme to try to expand the war. Who is jerking whose chain may be questionable, but the dogs of war are barking.

Archbishop Viganò Denounces Globalist Elite’s ‘Coup d’état’ at National Congress: A Call for Resistance Against New World Order
We are now facing an epochal threat, in the form of a coup d’état perpetrated by the globalist elite. This coup d’état has only recently appeared in full evidence, but the rambling statements of the participants in the Davos Forum that has just ended are the result of a subversive project carried out for decades. A project that is based on lies, blackmail, and corruption.
Lies. All the reasons given by the globalist network to legitimize their action are false, or rather: they are false pretexts that deliberately hide other unmentionable reasons.

He is mistaken here about the unification of liberalism and communism, but otherwise his reasoning is correct.

Ukraine : les investisseurs-vautours planifient le dépeçage du pays



21 et 22 juin 2023. Baptisée « Conférence sur le redressement de l’Ukraine », la réunion qui s’est tenue à Londres a été l’occasion pour les gouvernements des pays membres de l’OTAN, leurs banques et leurs entreprises, de planifier leurs opérations de pillage néolibéral en Ukraine.
Les vautours tournoient et s’acharnent sur les ressources et l’économie ukrainienne dévastées par la guerre entre l’OTAN et la Russie. Ils préparent la captation des ressources énergétiques et la super-exploitation des classes dominées. L’Union européenne est dans les starting-blocks. Des milliards d’investissements juteux sont programmés. En notre nom ?!

The head of Lockheed-Martin is on the line:

"It makes no sense to keep Israel from a military operation. What is the point? In further developing our industrial complex, which should account for more than 2% of GDP. There are conflicts that need to be resolved with weapons - and we are ready to provide those weapons"

With regard to the war in Ukraine, a similar logic applies. And with regard to a future war in Taiwan, too.

On artificial hunger


The waste of a staggering 1.3 billion tonnes of food per year is not only causing major economic losses but also wreaking significant harm on the natural resources that humanity relies upon to feed itself, says a new FAO report.

Food Wastage Footprint: Impacts on Natural Resources is the first study to analyze the impacts of global food wastage from an environmental perspective, looking specifically at its consequences for the climate, water and land use, and biodiversity.

Among its key findings: Each year, food that is produced but not eaten guzzles up a volume of water equivalent to the annual flow of Russia's Volga River and is responsible for adding 3.3 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases to the planet's atmosphere.

And beyond its environmental impacts, the direct economic consequences to producers of food wastage (excluding fish and seafood) run to the tune of $750 billion annually, FAO's report estimates.

"All of us - farmers and fishers; food processors and supermarkets; local and national governments; individual consumers -- must make changes at every link of the human food chain to prevent food wastage from happening in the first place, and re-use or recycle it when we can't," said FAO Director-General José Graziano da Silva.

"We simply cannot allow one-third of all the food we produce to go to waste or be lost because of inappropriate practices, when 870 million people go hungry every day," he added.

How Fascism Serves Capitalism

NATO’s Fascist Inheritance & the Long War On the Third World, with Pawel Wargan
To understand how this new Cold War might play out, we have to understand the foundations of the original Cold War of the 20th century. What was NATO’s role? What did it mean for the Third World back then? What does it mean for the Third World today, particularly those countries that seek an independent, sovereign path? What is the danger of rising fascist movements? And what are the lessons for anti-imperialists who live and organize in the imperial core?

To discuss this and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Paweł Wargan, an organizer and researcher based in Berlin, the coordinator of the secretariat of the Progressive International and author of the recent Monthly Review article “NATO and the Long War on the Third World,” in which he looks to the past for lessons about the future, concluding that capitalism cannot be overcome until the arteries of imperial plunder are severed.

About Capitalists' worst nightmare


In fact, what’s startling for people used to the cronyism of the West, is that if you click through each member of the Bank of Russia’s board of directors, you’ll note that all, save one, are career state bankers, economists, or some type of career state employees. Meaning they’ve worked in various positions in the Bank of Russia or other state institutions for the majority of their careers rather than in private hedgefunds, investment firms, corporations, and the like, as is so common in the U.S. Federal Reserve system.
...
It’s clear that the most epochal global seachange that could happen in our lifetimes would be the dissolution of the Western fiat banking system which has controlled the globe for hundreds of years, and on which the pillars of the most toxic forms of crony capitalism were built. But also specifically, the dollar as reserve currency and its attendant ‘exorbitant privilege’, which has fueled the unipolar model of the world for decades, unleashing a wave of unfettered imperialism that drowned the developing world in oceans of blood, felled countries and continents alike, turning them into broken, impoverished, lawless slave-pits—like for example Libya, and many others.

Human Radiation Experiments


Human experimentation continued throughout the Cold War. There is evidence of several large-scale projects across the country that also failed to inform patients of the health hazards of these experiments. At the Fernald School in Massachusetts, a school for disabled and special needs children, students were exposed to radioactive iron and calcium in the late 1940s and 1950s in a federally sponsored study. Their parents were not informed of the full nature of these experiments.



A Spoonful of Sugar Helps the Radioactive Oatmeal Go Down
When Fred Boyce and dozens of other boys joined the Science Club at Fernald State School in 1949, it was more about the perks than the science. Club members scored tickets to Boston Red Sox games, trips off the school grounds, gifts like Mickey Mouse watches and lots of free breakfasts. But Fernald wasn’t an ordinary school, and the free breakfasts from the Science Club weren’t your average bowl of cereal: the boys were being fed Quaker oatmeal laced with radioactive tracers.

About NATO


NATO is a club of forced-voluntary buyers of American-made weapons. This is what NATO's lauded standards are, which Ukraine must meet before it is deemed worthy of an invitation to NATO: to meet these standards, its weapons must be mostly American-made. This is also the reason for all these small and seemingly futile wars, from Serbia to Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria: they were demonstrations of the power of American weapons, with the additional goal of using up arms and ammunition so that the Pentagon and the rest of NATO would be forced to re-purchase them. The geopolitical reasons for these military conflicts are merely explanations of intentions in hindsight. For example, between 1964 and 1973, the U.S. dropped more than 2.5 million tons of bombs on Laos during 580,000 sorties, the equivalent of a B-52 bomber's full complement of ammunition every eight minutes, 24 hours a day, for nine years. What was the geopolitical background? No one even remembers if there ever was one. But these bombs were coming to the end of their shelf life, and they had to be used up to justify a new defense order to keep the money flowing in the right direction.
