Despots attain (and retain) power by forming corrupt alliances with plutocrats using threats and bribes. The latter shamelessly suck up to the former in the hope of avoiding their wrath, on the one hand, and making a fortune, on the other. It's one thing to read historical examples of this and something else to watch it play out -- shamelessly, nauseatingly -right now.
President Trump and Tim Cook, Apple’s chief executive, announced on Wednesday that Apple would devote $100 billion to additional investment in the United States, the company’s latest move to buy more components from U.S. suppliers and avoid the president’s threat of tariffs on iPhones. The announcement, in the gold-adorned Oval Office, came after Mr. Cook presented Mr. Trump with a 24-karat gold gift and lavished him with praise...

Gaza’s farmland systematically erased by Israel's war on Gaza

Only 1.5 % (232 ha) of cropland remains usable after 86 % was deliberately destroyed and 13% is kept off-limits, leaving 2 million Palestinians on the brink of famine. This is not collateral damage—it is systematic #domicide: the calculated dismantling of Gaza’s food system, livelihoods, and future.

Evidence & #FAO/#UNOSAT data:

openknowledge.fao.org/items/3a…

Hats off to The Guardian for bucking the trend and embedding the direct link in the article instead of gatekeeping the data. No sanitized summary—just straight access to the evidence. That should be a non-negotiable for any self-respecting news outlet. theguardian.com/world/2025/aug…

Only 1.5% of Gaza cropland left for starving Palestinians due to Israel’s war, UN says

Figure down from 4% in April, suggesting Israel has continued to target farmland in once-abundant Gaza Strip

The intellectual cultural class - though with some notable few exceptions - has been an utterly spectacular failure, and we must never forget nor forgive them:

🚨The #TrumpRegime intends to scale back US govt criticism of SLV, IL & RU, all with ext records of #abuse, leaked drafts of the St Dept’s #HumanRights reports indicate.

The leaked draft rpts underscore how the Trump regime is radically rethinking America’s role in global human rights advocacy.

As the US becomes less democratic, Trump & Rubio show their disdain for Americans, #Immigrants... by aligning with dictators on #Equality, #Rights...

These people are incapable of learning anything new in their lives, but keep coming back with the same argument. Either he is really that stupid, or he just wants to protect the oligarchies in Western democracies. No one can stand to hear about voting for “democracy” anymore. What is needed is the political will for radical change to overcome gerontocracies and give people a vision for the future. To achieve this, the economic elite must be challenged instead of repeatedly submitting to them.
Olivier Blanchard @ @ojblanchard1 Aug 5 Many of us are looking for a positive message from the left (the democrats in the US, the center left in Europe) to win the coming elections. My two cents: Now that autocracy has shown more and more clearly its true nature, its barbarity, its randomness, make the next elections a choice between autocracy versus democracy. Focus on the nature of the decision process. Democracy is slow, messy, but gives a voice to all. (Stay away from welfare state issues, from culture wars)

They're not stupid. They know there aren't "parties" and it's in their advantage to keep everyone fighting amongst themselves. Both "sides" supported the insane UK identity laws and in the US, both sides of congress likely has at least 1/3 of their members with Epstein-style sexual blackmail on them. It's not new. It's been that way since before America's masonic beginnings.

so you're playing this game as well?

I find it funny how I got a quest to escort a "tourist" from village A to village B, then when the tourist spawns in he turns out to be a 29-year old BABY who proceeded to get squashed by a hostile rabbit outside of village B right before I was about to complete the quest. :cirnolaughing:
