Karl Marx
The Civil War in France
Written: July 1870 - May 1871Nowhere do “politicians” form a more separate, powerful section of the nation than in North America. There, each of the two great parties which alternately succeed each other in power is itself in turn controlled by people who make a business of politics, who speculate on seats in the legislative assemblies of the Union as well as of the separate states, or who make a living by carrying on agitation for their party and on its victory are rewarded with positions.
Here we find here two great gangs of political speculators, who alternately take possession of the state power and exploit it by the most corrupt means and for the most corrupt ends – and the nation is powerless against these two great cartels of politicians, who are ostensibly its servants, but in reality exploit and plunder it.
Hypocrite warmongering Robbie Reich forgets to mention Intuit Inc always pays more than 70% to Dems.
1·4 days agoI don’t have the misfortune of being an inhabitant of the US banana republic.
Nothing o in your long rant applies to me.
Furthermore you put words in my mouth and misrepresent my view.
Indeed best to stop.
It’s friday afternoon here and unusually sunny.
I’m going to enjoy my childfree life and weekend with a nice cocktail and some excellent beers.
I don’t own that book and obviously wouldn’t since it’s outdated and wrong.
AFAIK most of the sources were UN or related.
And I think you make a lot of assumptions about me.
“just don’t like what most studies say” is wrong.
It doesn’t influence my thinking. They may be true or not, I will deal with them pragmatically since they are out of my control.
It is you who believes “what’s coming is inconvenient”. Catastrophic even.
What do you think you can or should do about the impending apocalypse?
that’s just your oopinion
Studies have been wrong before.
Some things are foreseable, “the future” is a combination of plenty variables and impossible to predict.
The single subject of population isn’t even simple.
Little anecdote: I found an old school book, you know based on studies, and it had predictions for 15 years.
They were off by a billion.
Whatever it is, I’m not going to be a nihilist or fatalist for reasons and issues I have zero control over.
I am living now and do the best with what I got.
You’re right, all those holy libs complaining about it are just hypocrites.
They get real mad when you call them out on it.
When it’s just the poor and minorities they don’t actually care about they can look away and enjoy their great democracy, but when they get a taste it’s fascism.
You sure have a sunny outlook.
And it’s really going great now with all those people and their economies
A world with a lot less people sounds like a dream TBH.
No overcrowded cities, no chasing animals of their land or destroying it for resources, etc…
Still one billion in 1804
two billion in 1927
three billion in 1960
four billion in 1974
five billion in 1987
six billion in 1999
seven billion in 2011
eight billion in 2022Already too many for my taste.
And no to all, don’t react with irrelevant “there’s enough food for…” or Malthusian bla bla
Always been like this.
Where do you think Copmala earned that name?
She made a carreer of denying proven innocents a retrial since it would bring down her conviction rate.
Or
More than 100 immigrant youth in San Francisco were detained or deported because of a 2008 city policy implemented by former mayor and now-Gov. Gavin Newsom and supported by Kamala Harris

Among other despicable things
I’ll just block you, the online equivalent of slamming the door in the faceof annoying biblethumpers at your door that won’t go away.
Go cry somewhere else with your BS
yawn.
Stopped discussing bible thumpers and flat earthers when I was 12. So bye
That’s his Mexican Luche name
