FAFO aside, this couldn’t happen to nicer finance industry ghouls 🔎_🎻

Edit to add: Dollars to donuts the US government prints money to make them whole.

I think this article from a US NGO (Global Energy Monitor) provides overwhelming evidence that they already are.

I wonder how they’ll unload this Scrooge McDuck-sized pool of USD.

This makes no sense under fiat monetary sovereignty. The government never makes a “profit” or a “loss” in any meaningful way (in its own currency).

It would be closer to the truth to see it as the government 1) never having any money at all, and 2) having the power to distribute to others arbitrarily large amounts of money and 3) having the power to destroy arbitrarily large amounts of that distributed money through taxation.

I think the Wikipedia page shows what they are just fine. They’re the Global North’s strategy think tank for subjugating the Global South. I wouldn’t call them CIA cut-outs. It’s worse than that: these are the people the CIA does its dirty work for.

Remember last year when they tried to start a Ministry of Truth, but it was a little too on the nose in the court of public opinion, so they had to shut it down? Presumably they’ll try to be a bit more subtle going forward.

I think they mean what everyone means by it.

where are my goddamn emojis do better lemmygrad

No more half asses, Walter.

Of course. From what I heard they did a “voice vote,” which I assume means the cowards can avoid culpability.

It seems redundant to call for the very thing that’s happening as we speak.

Americans cheering for the Rebel Alliance, while in real life they’re the Death Star’s passengers or even crew.
