@failedLyndonLaRouchite My Dad worked for the and then the as an electrical engineer in the . One of the highlights of his life was to establish enough engineering schools in Africa that an uninterrupted telephone call could be made from Egypt to SA and he could see that this would be an on-going facility. So much for the UN being a “tool of the USA”.

"We can't afford rent because rent prices are increasing so much to push us out to buy homes. But the interest rate is so high, you can't buy a home..."

"And then homelessness or houselessness is becoming criminalized. So then what?
I don't, I don't, I don't understand."

This Gaga is an idiot .

….to "go back to the Third World" ….

The term Third World arose during the Cold War to define countries that remained non-aligned with either NATO or the Warsaw Pact.

In the Cold War, Austria, Finland, Ireland, Sweden, and Switzerland , which were neutral , were part of the Third World.

Name that third world country contest!

"The Jakarta Method: Washington's Anticommunist Crusade and the Mass Murder Program that Shaped Our World", by Vincent Bevins

#Book presentation: "In 1965, the U.S. government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the twentieth century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile. But these events remain widely overlooked, precisely because the CIA's secret interventions were so successful."

#Quote from book: “I fear that the truth of what happened contradicts so forcefully our idea of what the Cold War was, of what it means to be an American, or how globalization has taken place, that it has simply been easier to ignore it.”

#TheDigRadio did an amazing interview with Aslı Bâli & Aziz Rana about Third Worldism.

The whole lecture is brilliant, but around 1h20, they talk about the role of international law in the erosion of hegemonic powers, in order to create a #ThirdWorld alternative based on justice and dignity for all.

Seeing the #ICC warrant through that lens opens arenas of struggle that many on the left have foreclosed (for often the right reasons).

Some #Americans say the #US will become a "#ThirdWorld country" under their next administration.
But many "third world" countries will still have #vaccines and #health services come 2025 and beyond.
Let's leave that ugly idiom for later, though.
Please disobey the crazies.

Advancing #technology was sold to us under the idea that it would lift everyone out of #drudgery, but as we can all plainly see, it was only ever intended to elevate a select #elite and reduce the rest of us to drudges to serve the #ruling and #affluent #monopoly #ownership classes, their mandarins, and their machines.

America is now a #ThirdWorld #colonial extraction #economy. The sun will always set on any #empire, given enough time and enough #weapons in the hands of the colonized.
