The Buck Stops Here: Epstein Explains Rentier Oligarchy Plainly: The Dollar is a Debt That Will Never be Repaid Here Epstein very eloquently describes the power of finance capital through debt: for every dollar the bank has, it can lend out 10 in "our system". This is impossible for the average person to understand. You need Hudson to decode WHY this is the case, how the dollar operates as the world reserve (with the Euro as a silly lab experiment that is totally subservient and essentially 1:1) and why one dollar of real money equals 10 of speculative potential. It's because the dollar is where "the buck stops" - no one can claim to want anything else because there is nothing else. You either play with the arcades tokens or you do not play at all. The dollar is a Ponzi scheme that represents a debt to itself; one that will never be repaid. In this sense all dialectics becomes self referential and tautological and contained: the dollar hegemony is both it's own debtor and creditor. Epstein wasn't very smart, all he could understand was "I can make 10 with 1 real one." That's it, it's not hard, it simply requires a person to flush all reality down the toilet and ignore all common sense. At the end of the day in "our system" more debt = more asset value. If you told the average person on the street that you were 100 million in debt and this was your "asset", they would laugh. But you have to pay the bank. The financial oligarch and the US Government doesn't have to pay anyone. In a bizarre way, this is actually Communism. The structure of a system that can command the value multiplication of 1 to 10 must have all possible future trajectories planned, all possible outcomes weighed and measured, and all power and authority. Then they kind of calculation required to temporally move labor power from the future into the present succeeds; this is a time machine. But in the hands of a stunted pedophile rentier elite, futures are not planned, there is no guarantee, and the bounty of the future becomes a triangle on the top of the pyramid without anything but a volatile herd of feudal lords pecking away at it's basis. It cannot sustain what is necessary to access the future. Epstein is so dumb he doesn't realize his entire system was essentially explained to the US government by Hudson in the early 70's when they realized that "the buck stops here." It took the last intelligent Marxist to tell the Empire how it's own money worked. "Fractionalized reserves" as the gateway to unlimited debt.

I'm "comparing" everything to China. Since 2017, China has built a city from nothing that is already twice the size of San Francisco, where I live. It's also far more advanced. This is the reality of Communism, not the opinions of western Leftoids larping as such.

"Throughout his life, Noam has insisted that intellectuals have a responsibility to speak the truth and expose lies — especially when those truths are uncomfortable to themselves." She says. One of the only things I agree with Chomsky about, what he repeated at SFSU in 2002 in his lecture I attended, was that there was precisely no point in "speaking truth to power" because the powerful where so because they knew the truth- which is what made them powerful (through their lies). Even in this clip where Chomsky got something philosophically right he used the opportunity to shit on AES projects and told us that Lenin, Stalin, and Mao would not have cared about truth. This is the lie, spoken FROM A POSITION OF POWER in the west as a anarchist that undermined revolution for the establishment. Chomsky can be forgiven for Epstein, he cannot be forgiven for his lifetime of work against the real movement and against Communism.

Anarchism is the Root of Fascism: Listen to the Italians Mussolini: Son of the Century is really a brilliant show. Italian made drama, it covers the entire phenomenon. It explains Fascism as it is in reality in a materialists understanding. Here Mussolini explains the origins of it as Anarchism through Andrea Costa and Amilcare Cipriani. He then goes on to sum up the historical basis: the Lumpen proletariat- men of war who lost the great war, thirsting forever to live up to the concept of "victory" of their wills. What else is Fascism other than eternal war? Rentier oligarchs commanding their class of angered menial servants to preserve their status quo. Benito is just the middle man. Not farmers or peasants like the western left (ala Trotsky) maintains.... The "socialism" that Mussolini speaks of has nothing to do with Marxism. When Haz Al Din and the Infrared pioneered these basic ideas 3 years ago, the left lamented at the very simple concepts that return to a Marxist Leninist and scientific understanding of who Fascists were, and who they are now. From the Italians themselves, who obviously authentically see the connection between Anarchism and Fascism. Will be doing a series on this show depicting all aspects of Anarchism presented in it's full historical context- they go into great detail. It's obvious this isn't simply "right wing" theory at this point, it's the very basis of the collective western left. It will emerge there first and foremost - as it did in historically.

The Worst Type of Anti-Communist Leftist is a Boomer Anarchist The absolute worst kind isn’t a neocon or a Reaganite—it’s the boomer anarchist. Watching this so-called “debate” made my brain is again a reminder of the total bankruptcy of western leftism. Haz Al-Din is completely right: anarchism is the mirror image of fascism—and frankly, that’s charitable. Because if people like Chris Hedges, Chomsky, or Orwell ever actually got the world they wanted, the outcome would be worse than Hitlerism—not because of death camps, but because of endless suspension of the dialectical moment. Total non-dissolution. A void of morality wrapped in moral superiority. This Indian guy in the video lived in China. He knows what the real left is—Communism with a capital C. Not vibes. Not slogans. Not academic whining. Material relations predicating social relations. Production before “feeling free.” Positive freedom—the freedom to build, to transform, to conquer alienation, not just the freedom to complain. But Hedges can’t grasp it. When confronted with the monumental achievements of the Chinese or Soviet civilizations—the abolition of famine, the industrialization of peasant economies, the elevation of hundreds of millions from utter destitution—he shrinks from the material reality. He cannot attribute these outcomes to Communism as such, to state power organized by the working class, to planned production subordinating capital to collective need. Instead, he comforts himself with a fantasy: that somehow, by pure accident, China stumbled into prosperity by “affirming” what he calls human rights. Not because of socialism, but in spite of it. It’s the ultimate inversion: the base doesn’t determine the superstructure—"human rights" do. Material conditions are irrelevant, historical struggle is irrelevant. What matters is whether some ideal abstraction, born in Western liberal theory and enforced through NGO ethics, was somehow maintained in the process. It doesn’t matter that Soviet and Chinese workers are housed, fed, and employed. What matters is whether their lives conform to a secular catechism of abstract freedoms—the right to speak, to dissent, to feel autonomous, regardless of the social relations that make such “rights” either real or meaningful. In this upside-down worldview, China only succeeded because it unknowingly affirmed liberalism. Because it accidentally discovered the sacred grail of bourgeois man. Because beneath the concrete program of socialism, there was—according to Hedges—a ghost of John Locke whispering in Mandarin. It’s pathetic. They cannot allow material history to speak for itself, because if it did, it would shatter their entire framework. They must spiritualize the outcome—claim the victory for the abstraction. Because to admit that Communism works when it is material, planned, organized, and sovereign would require abandoning their lifelong posture of critique. This is the anarchist dialectic—a negative recursion loop. A black hole of self-negation. Every real world victory of Communism is either ignored, moralized into oblivion, or claimed by default as proof that anarchist moralism “works.” It’s like watching an algorithm that eats its own shit and calls it ethics. When Communism wins, anarchists insist it was despite itself. They worship this mystical, pre-political “freedom” like a slave venerating the master. And the tragedy is generational. The boomer “Left” should never have been counted as left at all. They were born too late to build, and too early to submit. They mistook critique for struggle, and have spent fifty years droning in passive moral indignation while empire rolled on and on. I wish Hedges, and every one of these empty husks of '68, would disappear—both physically, and ideologically, spiritually, historically. I wish they had never been seen as "comrades", never been confused for allies by anyone. They have nothing to show for their long life of “witnessing” except a 401k, some tepid PBS interviews, and the smug look of someone who thinks suffering counts as sacrifice. They wept for the poor but never sided with power when it took revolutionary form. They are the past. The ghost of a Left that never fought, never built, and never won.

Mark Pelligrino of the American Capitalist Party comes out in support of Haz-Al-Din (Ali Hammoud) in this extremely emotional and moving personal endorsement. Thank you Mark! I knew you could be convinced through an ethical system like Communism. Mark Pellegrino

In this 45 minute call taken from Haiti lLberte, Daniel Tutt talks with Dan Cohen. (Full link to article below). He talks about his involvement with Danny Shaw, the reason he chose to be an "ombudsmen" for him, and talks about why he promoted the slanders libelous accusations against the ACP, endangering lives and drawing people into potential dangerous and existential situations with the Law. He then explains why he retracted this public promotion, and why he now is offering to be a mediator (with a friend who is a "lawyer") to help Danny Shaw damage control his career and image. He then goes into how all "Marxist Academics" turned on Midwestern Marx and anyone else for joining the ACP, blacklisting them. When pressed about why he did this, he claims to have done it on behalf of the MUG DSA, a statement that Donald Parkinson (the leader of MUG) has now insisted publicly is a lie. He claims Daniel Tutt is not in MUG DSA nor is he operating on their behalf, which he clearly says he is at the 24 minute mark. Cohen then questions why he would openly work with, as Daniel Tutt explicitly says, is a suspected Federal agent named Andrew Saturn and Johnny Mead (Johnysocialism). His response is unclear and he appears to contradict himself several times. After attempting to "negotiate" with Cohen for nearly an hour, Cohen says he had no future intention of any negotiation and was puzzled by the entire conversation. He says this conversation has gone further in his feeling that the ACP is in good standing. It's very clear Tutt and his unofficial "client" of sorts has no bargaining power. I hope MUG DSA learns from this and distances themselves from Tutt, who Donald Parkinson thinks is a liar who misrepresented himself as acting on behalf of the MUG DSA and other DSA groups. donaldparkinson🇵🇸🌹💀 Marxist Unity Group

Nazi War Machine: Financing the Unproductive Anti-Industrial Empire This documentary is a pretty good outline of how the Nazi war machine worked. It was, in it's first phase, Schacht's MEFO bill system- a covert way to finance rearmament. Schacht himself cautioned that this was just printing money directly into debt- national debt, on an unprecedented scale. The western elites bought the debt because their finance capital flowed in, propping up the value of the economy. Trade with the USSR actually increased during this time. Schacht originally intended to switch the economy into productive spheres after rearmament materialized, he thought it would lead to a higher productive industrialization as Germany regained it's "national pride." But Schacht was out by 37 and Göring was in, and his "Göring Werke" 4 year plan continued the debt to MIC pipeline. He didn't care about the debt, he used to say things to the tune of "Guns will make us powerful; butter will only make us fat” and “The war will pay for itself—either through plunder or victory.” By the time Speer came in to actually apply some Fordism to the madness (Germany at one point had to literally cease war production to reset the relationship of debt to government expenditure) the Wehrmacht had 20 million frontline soldiers operating on a pure caloric intake model. In fact there were no workers left in Germany proper; about 15 million slaves and forced labor workers were making the food to feed the massive military and the bullets they were shooting. Speer fixed prices and set in motion the Eugenics based food program. The slogan for the time was literally "Food is War." Soldiers got the 3k calories, everyone else starved on a sliding scale. The holocaust itself had to be stopped in 1944 just to provide the munitions factories with enough slave labor to continue. The "land reform" of Lebensraum couldn't even subsume the conquered land fast enough, instead Speer and the Generalplan Ost simply starved the people who lived there (ultimately a third of the 27 million deaths in the USSR came from starvation). Not even the productive capacity of the land could be made to work for the Reich. Lebensraum was the largest man made intentional famine of all time. It produced nothing but millions dead, including starving Germans who didn't meet the "productive" standards in the Krupp factories making purely unproductive military "goods". The most hilarious thing, talked about in the last 20 minutes of this documentary, is that the German financial oligarchy KNEW Hitler and the Nazis were done by early 1944 and quietly moved their capital out of Germany to subsidiaries through corporate assets. They didn't care by this point because they thought the increase in "production" of military might would save them, which clearly meant nothing and wasn't even scientifically provable at that point. The Tiger tank sucked and was technically inferior to the T-34 for all intents and purposes adjusted for its production context. The Nazi war machine simply transferred all the printed debt of the Schacht era into it's mindless unproductive anti-industrial schema. All the extra printed money went into peoples bank accounts where it sat and festered. No one could buy anything because there were no products to be bought. Zero "goods". Most of the plunder just sat in warehouses and Göring admired his Louvre art in his Paris apartment completely alone. The actual finance capital filtered out to the corporate subsidiaries and the entire project simply died when an industrial Fordism from the USSR simply out produced it- a production not based on Eugenic caloric intake models. And the USSR had no debt because they repudiated it, and Stalin said "fuck you" to Breton Woods as the USSR rebuilt itself from the ashes without any help from western finance oligarchs. This documentary Libs out at times, claiming the Nazis were "hostile to money" 😂 but it tracks well showing the logical evolution of the production for war. All that is missing is the most important piece to the puzzle: Nazi war production was COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY UNPRODUCTIVE. "There was no Volkswagen for the Autobahn."

Chomsky can rest in peace but I will say my piece. He was a vicious anti-communist and the western left glossed over this and promoted him to this status based on this banal copasetic agreement with the consensus of the pan-left. His Anarchism was a blight on the formation of many people's minds in terms of Marxism and leftism. He couldn't even endorse the legacy of the 1917 revolution for more than a few months in 1918. Sure there was some good in it, some analysis. Some elements of the old Eugene Debs line. There was also the MIT influence, the heart of the beast, the copasetic rationalizations against the AES projects, the clear Gorbachevism and push into the project of the oblivion of the USSR. Chomsky was pushed by US establishment as a compatible left godfather and this psyop (that largely came out of the mid 1980's that was mirrored by the Gorby clan) made him a household name. The line I like from Chomsky is this: "Speaking truth to power is an illusion. The people in power are powerful because they know the truth."
