i love this guy #economics professor #RichardDWolff.
although he does come off a bit patronising sometimes, his lessons about #TheStateWeAreIn globally are very easy to understand & absolutely essential to make sense of what's happening & be empowered about the path to take.
#GifsArtidote: #self-sufficiency will be a trending hashtag i predict. my motto might catch on: #ChangeTheWorldStartWithYourSelf
and i mean in every aspect of your life. #DIY #MutualAid #Community
Interesting, but #RichardDWolff is describing an epiphenomenon.

The central ideological and political problem for the U.S. employer class after 1945 was how to accomplish the undoing of the New Deal and the United States’ wartime alliance with the USSR. The solution it found was a well-coordinated, well-funded campaign featuring cohesive arguments articulated by institutions that could saturate global public opinion. Nothing less than a total turnaround in public opinion and policy would rescue U.S. capitalism from what its employer class saw as an existential crisis.
Here's a talk by Richard D Wolff about the decline of the US empire and the denial its political class are in about it, which someone made into a video and posted it on a PeerTube channel;

Kiwis, remember he's speaking at an anticapitalist conference in our capital city this week.
#RichardDWolff knows the score. Ignore the stupid clickbait thumbnails.
#RichardDWolff Talks about the current state of the US and the world, and why #Trump, ultimately, doesn’t matter. Ignore the stupid clickbait thumbnails.
Global Times is quite something. Right next to an interview with Richard D. Wolff and Yanis Varoufakis - an interview with Aleksandr Dugin. 😱
It's as if, no matter their political stance, public figures are doomed to act as useful idiots for one propaganda source or another.
