A rich man of the Empire, popping up in media everywhere, which historically presages some kind of political run.

I am so glad to not be him, in spite of all his wealth and accomplishment.

Liberty and capitalism, eh Mr. Mackey? What you mean in translation is more liberty for you, and less for everyone else, you squirrely-looking union-busting anti-People Ayn-Randian douche sombrero.

I love the part about socialists taking over the military, heh. I guess he means that modern generals care a little more than they used to about their troops, and are a little less prompt about pointing a firehose of maimed bloody americans at whatever hotspot he and his fatcat ilk want to profit from next.

As a simple practical matter, I’m with the allegedly socialist generals on that one. We’re at war with Russia because elites like this guy want us to be, and they are willing to fight Putin to the very last … Ukrainian. So why ship boys from Terre Haute or Gila Bend across the world? We can save the expense of doing that and have more cash to stuff in suitcases, to send to Raytheon via Zelensky in Ukranistan.

Do NOT click that link unless you’re ready to be angry. Possibly at the content. Possibly at me.

Click this one, alternatively, and hear a real socialist school Mr. Mackey to his face.

The host of this segment is a woman, ‘SabbySabs’, who I’ve come to appreciate more and more. Her take on the Dore v. Turner kerfuffle was the best one I saw, and that includes Dore’s own takedown.

She closes out reminding us of the damage we do to ourselves and the world when we take all this Red vs. Blue, right vs. left, Biden vs. Trump bullshit seriously, even though we know it’s nothing more than another distraction.

As closing outs go … good enough for me.
