Well, okay, you can ignore the propaganda, but it wont go away.
Too bad. You're right with your views on neo-liberalism but todays world isn't monocausal.
Bye.

@musevg @drahardja I’m not ignoring propaganda. I’m telling you the propaganda is spread through mechanisms developed and maintained (in spite of we knowing their consequences) by western companies, that we call very successful, and consider lead by the most innovative and important entrepreneurs of our time, and by far the most rewarded by our economic system. We built a disinformation and control machine more powerful than anything that ever existed and sell it as a service.

I added a section with #books I’ve published to my #website:
draketo.de/#books

You can buy them in print via the links next to the 📚, and I’m glad if you do!

The wisp book will shortly be available in stores, too. But isn’t yet: at the moment you can only download it for free. All of these are free licensed free culture.

Office Hours: What was the REAL reason Trump met with more than 800 of America’s top military leaders this week? robertreich.substack.com/p/off…

Beverley reshared this.

in reply to Robert Reich

I don't think there was one reason, but multiple ones
- show the military officers who's boss
- get photos of the traitor-in-chief and the drunk in front of uniformed people
- of cause a distraction from the Epstein case and other failures
- show power by pushing standards onto people they themselves don't, well can't, satisfy
(list very likely not complete)

Some favourite records of my 2025 (so far) is coming a bit late (and a bit too close to my end of year list.) But I'm doing it now because Bandcamp Friday is TODAY (Oct 3rd), so you might want to support some of these amazing artists. radicalcut.blogspot.com/2025/1…
