Say goodbye to Private Ownership; instead the government will be the owners and can give what you think is yours to others.
Say Goodbye to good healthcare; the goverenment will decide when you get treatment if ever.
Say Goodbye to your Children for the government will own them. I have seen this.
New World Order alternative:
1. Russian gangster elite appropriates Ukraine and moves on the Baltics and Poland; has complete supremacy over grain, mineral and naval supremacy.
2. Western liberals who are incredibly stupid keep on trying to cut a deal with Putin. Even though they know there ain’t ever going to be a deal with Russia that Russia won’t subvert or break in seconds if they think it’s to their advantage.
3. Major world capitalists and oligarchs laugh their ass off at the inane stupidity of people who think any of this conflict in Russia has even a whiff of Communism about it. It’s the Caviar Express, it’s always been the Caviar Express, and we’ve known it since the 1990s.
So while I broadly agree with your warnings, I’d revise as follows:
- New World Order - Caviar Express zaibatsu capitalism if Joe and his Democrats can get it. RINOs and the Press hunger for it as well.
- Say Goodbye to Private Ownership except where your goods and services are bought from the Caviar Express zaibatsu; many in the the government will be middle managers with masters and owners in distant lands who can give what you think is yours to others whenever they decide.
- Say Goodbye to good healthcare; Caviar Express zaibatsu capitalism will decide when you get treatment if ever. Which basically means, hello American healthcare system with bells on - your insurance will pay out ONLY if you’re demonstrably loyal or worth something to the zaibatsu.
- Say Goodbye to your Children as the government will be under orders from the Caviar Express zaibatsu capitalism to breed them into ideal, compliant, unquestioningly loyal consumers for the China-Russia megacorp.
In Robocop 3, a Japanese megacorp hoovers up everything they can - by any means necessary. They make the ultracapitalist OCP look positively benign. Anything they want to buy they buy at cents on the dollar, whatever they don’t own fully they drive into bankruptcy to buy it at fire sale prices, and if they can’t grab what they want legally they use organised crime to maintain plausible deniability.
That is where China and Russia are headed. India’s not quite decided to jump on board but is certainly considering it.
The main difference between Robocop’s OCP/Kanemitsu Corporation, and modern day Russia, is that the Caviar Express doesn’t operate under a single corporate identity. A chunk of resources goes into managing the propaganda mill, another chunk goes toward paying private contractors and mercs to do the dirty work on the ground. The conscript army is basically there for smoke and mirrors, to make Russia look big and scary - but stick those grunts into a conflict and they’re useless. The real power in their military is through private contractors and organised crime.
Abouy 60% of ALL Russian wealth created since the collapse of the USSR has ended up in the pockets of Putin, his oligarchs, and their financial backers around the world. Along with anyone corrupt enough or rich enough to buy a ticket into their pyramid scheme. It’s all laundered through layers of ostensibly legitimate businesses.
For that reason, we understand how literally the whole political spectrum in the UK has been compromised by it - the Tory Boy George Osborne, the More-Tory-than-Tory Nigel Farage, the “intensely relaxed” Blair’s underling Peter Mandelson and even Gorgeous George “Too commie even for Corbyn” Galloway are ALL shilling for the oligarchy. At least Farage has had the decency to admit he was a bit too starstruck by Putin.
Left wingers and right wingers from the UK have all partied on Oleg Deripaska’s yachts for one reason or another. They’re all utterly enthralled at the way all those magnificently super-rich Russian dudes totally robbed their country and bought out the media and paid for hits on anyone likely to expose them.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The conspiracy theories are so utterly convoluted it’s ridiculous. What’s staring us in the face is a far simpler explanation. Russia has always thought Ukraine was just a jerkwater of cossacks and poor people but over the last 25 years the internet age, advances in computing, improvements in vehicle engineering and a huge agribusiness sector has seen Ukraine turn into a pie that can’t possibly be allowed to be under Western control.
If Russia can take over and “nationalise” Ukraine, the Caviar Express can put hands round more throats. Europe’s oil, gas, nuclear, wheat, grain, aviation, aerospace, shipbuilding and automobile industries were heavily dependent on Ukraine - an extortion racket like the one Putin runs simply can’t afford to pass that up.
