  • The Kennedy's made their fortune shorting the US economy during the Great depression.

    Everything Trump has done has been calculated. I'd be willing to bet my left testicle that his gambling most of his fortune on heavily leverages shorts. He's trying to create the greatest possible depression because that will make him the most amount of money.

    He knows exactly when he will cut his bullshit so he will settle his short right before making the announcement. Then with all the money he essentially stole from the population he will then buy up large chunks of the economy (and so will his buddies).

    Once capital is even more heavily controlled by the upper classes the only recourse left will be violent revolution. All speculation. But that's what I would be doing if I was trump trying to install a true autocracy.

  • Why are the Baltics like that?

  • They were colonised. During the soviet Union there was a rabid russification program. Back in like 2020 something like half of all cars in Latvia were on Russian plates. The anti communist sentiment is muddled with anti Russian sentiment. The baltics are a productive region, and during communism were having their wealth extracted to be used in the heartland to raise the living standards of less productive regions. Equity under communism was making them poorer. Communism doesn't help everyone. Communism didn't help the romanovs and it certainly didn't help the baltics. Communism is an ideology that appeals to the worst off in society. As far as the union of Soviets go, the heartland and Kazakhstan gaining the most while Eastern Europe got royally screwed.

    Oh and by the way fascism comes from the Italian fascismo meaning faggot (as in the bundle of sticks made in to a broom) it symbolises that one might be weak but together they are strong. Fascism is national socialism with emphasis on nationality/race. It's an evil ideology that the baltics as a rule reject in favour of Liberal capitalism.

    Please stop using Fascism as short hand for late stage capitalism.

  • Is Lemmy your "main social media app"? If not, which one is it?

  • Started on lemmy today after reddit perma banned my 14 year old account for breaking the first rule of reddit. I may have told some to kill themselves. I'm definitely in the wrong but I don't care I'm taking the ban personally and never using it again.
