“If You Want To Fight The Machine, Don't Move To The Right”
by Caitlin Johnson in Caitlin’s Newsletter on Substack
“Right wing ‘populism’ has been allowed to flourish by the very power structures its proponents purport to oppose, while the authentic left has been systematically dismantled by generations of aggressive imperial operations”

“Trump’s idea of expelling Palestinians from Gaza and conquering their homeland for Israel is the most revolutionary idea of all time. He is just too stupid to understand what he is suggesting”

"The rulers of all late empires, including the Roman... Caligula and Nero, Charles I, the last Habsburgs... are as incoherent as the Mad Hatter, uttering nonsensical remarks... unanswerable riddle... reciting word salads of inanities. They, like Donald #Trump, are a reflection of the moral intellectual, physical rot that plague a diseased society."

The Empire Self-Destructs
We share the pathologies of all dying empires with their mixture of buffoonery, rampant corruption, military fiascos, economic collapse and savage state repression.Chris Hedges (The Chris Hedges Report)
He says the quiet parts out loud. He’s the only president who’ll openly boast that US troops are in #Syria to keep the #oil or lament that they failed to take the oil from #Venezuela , or just come right out and tell everyone he’s bought and owned by #Zionist #oligarchs. He puts much less effort into disguising the true nature of the US empire than other presidents.
That’s the only reason various factions of America’s unofficial permanent government have had objections to Trump’s presidency over the years. It’s not because he presents a threat to the establishment or because he’s trying to bring down the deep state, it’s because he is viewed as a poor custodian of the empire. He either doesn’t understand or doesn’t care about the importance of keeping a polite face on the imperial machine.
If I were forced to say something positive about Trump, that would be it. The thing some US #empire managers dislike about him is the only thing I like about him: that he makes the US empire a less effective evil because of how much less hidden he keeps the inner workings of the machine. The hood stays popped open the entire time, showing the whole world how the imperial sausage gets made.

“Empire Of Chaos, Reloaded”
by Pepe Escobar On ZeroHedge
“Instead of working on diplomacy, dialogue & cooperation, the Empire of Chaos – & the vassalized collective West – do ‘offer’ something to the Global Majority: their full support for an ethnic cleansing genocide, & their full support for a suit-and-tie terror gang of ‘moderate’ head choppers taking power in a former sovereign Arab nation.”

“During a lifetime of extraordinary journalism on both paper and the screen, John Pilger, who died one year ago on Monday, showed the world the suffering caused by U.S.-led aggression in mostly poor nations that had the temerity to hinder Washington’s path to global dominance.”

Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative MatrixCaitlin Johnstone (Caitlin’s Newsletter)
"In November, over a year into Israel’s genocide in Gaza, a report by the Gaza-based Community Training Center for Crisis Management produced a grim statistic: “Nearly all children in the embattled Palestinian enclave believe their death is imminent — and nearly half of them want to die."

Given the violent foundations of the US in genocide and white settler colonialism I suppose this is to be expected.

Lucious started out evil and everyone wanted to take him down. But the writers fell in love with him, so now he's a hero despite being a murderer and a criminal.
There's a problem of morality on the show. It's not what is done that's good or bad, it's who's doing it that's seen as good or bad ...

How much money do you actually want?
The last couple of episodes were telling. You see the writing of Empire is a bit like the Harry Potter books in that it's not what characters do that's bad, it's whose family they''re from that makes it acceptable or not.
So there's this one episode where this group of singers from an old Empire label pop act have a beef with the Lyons for not considering them for their 2020 album.
