  • There are others i would rather see go first but i wouldn't be upset with that outcome

    It just strikes me as ridiculous they are full blown trying to make this kid a martyr. But the maga crowd arent the brightest bulbs in the pack. Wcgw? 🤷🏻

  • Price of gold just hit $3140 why does that matter? Because gold is the true measure lf inflation. The inflation statistics used by walstreet and the FED come from the world bank and IMF. These numbers are based on consumer price index which is an inadequate measure of inflation because it does not account for the devaluation of a currency due to the increase in circulating currency supply and leveraged debt. Also Cpi Has been manipulated several times in the last few decades to keep inflation numbers skewed.

    The reality here is that capitalist empires in decline always lie about the true measure of inflation to prevent civil unrest and the fomenting of a revolution by the working class.

    But anyway: for the first 173 years of the us dollar as a standardized currency the price of gold only fluctuated 95% from $18 to $35 but in the 54 years since nixon withdrew from the bretton woods agreement ending the gold standard(the convertibility of the us dollar into gold at any bank) the price of gold has increased 8900% from $35 to $3140 this is directly proportional to the increase in the national debt in the same amount of time. From $400 billion to $36 trillion or 9000%

    Even when fdr first passed the fair labor standards act setting minimum wage at 25¢/ hr that was more than the highest minimum wage currently for corporate fast food workers in California of $20/hr. As 25 cents an hour in 1938 produced 14.9 ounces of gold which would be $22/hr today or $45,160 (From 1938 to 1968 federal minimum wage was increased 7 times. On average from 1938 till today federal minimum has been increased 22 times on average once every 4 years with most adjustments happening within a year of the previous one. But today the federal minimum wage has not been adjusted in 17 years. The longest period it has gone unadjusted in 87 years.)

    For about 4 decades a minimum wage worker could support a family of four with enough left over to save for their retirement (if they were not part of the approximately 50% of people with a pension) their children’s higher education and a modest family vacation once a year. During this point in history the median house price was $7200 but a home could be bought in most states for $4k-5k or even less for a fixer upper (my geandfather bought a house they were going to burn down in 1955 for $2700 about an hour outside Boston in the metropolitan providence area of new England and today it is worth $600,000) in 1950 minimum wage was raised to 75¢/hr which is 45 ounces of gold a year or $141,000 / $68/hr today. in 1956 it was again raised to $1/hr or 60 ounces of gold a year or $188,000/ $90/hr and in 1968 it was raised a final time before the end of the gold standard to $1.60 an hour this was 95 ounces of gold a year and today would be $300,000 or $147/hr it would take both adults working 2 jobs at 80 hours a week with overtime at a base pay of $30/hr to reach the same quality of life/ buying power

    The reality is wall street took over our government, enacting the business plot they had attempted during the FDR administration(if you dont know about this coup led by prescott bush and the other robber barron wall street legacy families look it up) and they used their wealth and influence to eradicate the progress made by labor and civil rights advocates in the 30’s 40’s 50’s and 60’s primarily by intentionally devaluing the us dollar to lower the cost of wages for all the jobs they couldn’t outsource to the third world in the next step of their plan to siphon more wealth from the working class and poor. They had Reagan re legalize stock buybacks again and implement trans national trade agreements that sent a majority of the good manufacturing jobs and the jobs supporting them to the third world to cut lanor costs by 90-95%+

    Now rent for a 2 bedroom in most metropolitan cities close to shipping ports is $3000/month (rent for 2 bedroom apartments has always been about an ounce of gold on averagein areas such as hartford ct, plymouth ma, providence ri, burlington VT, many parts of NY outside the city and new jersey. By the end of this administration gold spot price for an ounce will be $4500 last time he was in office saw rhe largest price increase under any administration from $1200 to $2050 or 71% so brace yourselves.

    The reason financial institutions don't tell us this as I mentioned above is to prevent civil unrest and revolution. If more people understood this as i do they would immediately stop participating as a wage slave in a system that doesn’t afford a quality of life worth working or living for. Minimum wage has decreased in value by 86-95% meanwhile executive pay has ballooned from 30-60 Times the median worker wage back 54-84 years ago to 1000-5000(3333%-8333%) times that same metric today with the highest paid executive earning an hourly wage of $72,000 or about $800/hr back before 1971.

    The reality is that it cost more to purchase and maintain an enslaved person for their average 30 year lifespan during chattel slavery than minimum wage workers anywhere in the United States are currently compensated

  • Luigi Mangione @lemmy.world

    Look at this ridiculous shit

  • It’s definitely a bunch of LEO’s and corporate executives. The shit they type is so ridiculous. Like luigoids are transphobe far right incels and saying brian Thompson is a hero for providing gender affirming care. Like what planet are these people on?

  • The Balfour declaration was literally addressed to “Lord Rothschild” fuck the Rothschilds. Zionists are evil

    Why don't you defend all billionaires and tell me how hard they worked. Obviously anti semitism isnt really a big deal to zionists if they are best friends with trump and Elon musk who did a blatant open seig heil salute not once but twice at the inauguration while espousing all the pro Zionist bullshit he can. The ADL even excused such a disgusting gesture so if doing a seig heil salute isnt anti semitic then clearly calling out the rothschild family cant be either right? Which way is it? Sure the rich Zionists who use their money to further their cause are all good guys because of the magic sky daddy they worship.

    Get the Zionist boot out of your mouth and go touch some grass and breathe in some Reality for once.

    That youtube link is for anyone who wants to hear the truth. Its from code pink. Obviously you don't want the truth you want to make excuses for genocidal war mongers because you deludedly believe their ethno-religious identity shields them from valid criticism.

  • I made a post on antiwork yesterday about all the additional comments underneath the top comments that just don't exist when you go to expand them. Made a screen grab video of it. In one case it said there were 48 comments but you open them and nothing then you scroll to the end it said 458 comments and there were like maybe 40-50 it’s ridiculous what a corporate bootlicking shithole reddit now obviously is. At least it was better hidden before.

    Today on neo liberal paridoxical brain rot. “Anyone who identifies as a zionist is therefor jewish and completely absolved of being held accountable, the idea that ultra wealthy zionists who hold extreme Socio-political and economic power who have publicly spoken of their aims and used their wealth to manipulate and influence others to also serve their interests are very likely working together for a common interest, is just a crazy tinfoil hat conspiracy theory and should be discredited immediately because it makes all people who support a genocidal ethno stare look bad and that reflects poorly on judaism as a whole!”

  • The us were not the first to start colonizing and pillaging the third world to rape and pillage resources to feed markets. Sure it will harm a third world country if the goods they are producing are destroyed or appropriated by a rebel group but it will harm the multinational conglomerates who aim to profit off the use of these resources for whatever goods they are going to make or repackage and sell.

    Its not so much the US as it is western hegemonic influence and multibillion dollar military industry profiteers pillaging the third world for rare earth minerals, raw metal ore, petroleum, textiles and whatever valuables they can get their hands on.

    Are you saying the US iran conflict isn’t directly connected to the zionist regime of israel and all the history of the colonization of Palestine since the signing of the Balfour declaration? Because there was no such thing as islamic extremism before zionist terror groups irgun haganah palmach and lehi waged a 3 decades long campaign of assassinations, bombings, riots and other attacks killing approximately between 5000-8000 Palestinian jews, Christians and muslims as well as american and British expats and british troops occupying british mandate palestine. I mean we can trace this all the way back to the crusades and find WASP ideology as the root and then before then we can go to ancient babylon and egypt to see where the tensions in the fertile crescent came from. But today no other nation state breeds more validated contempt than a fascist ethnostate commiting genocide against a race of humans it deems inferior. This is why the mujahadein funded by the reagan administration to fight the ussr ended up taking their training and money and aiming their ire at the us after the saudis refused to break their ties to the us state whos unholy alliance with israel made them an enemy to arabs since 1948 radicalization and extremism didnt blossom till the conflict with Egypt and it was a result of certain islamic groups reading marxist ideas of resistance and implementing them in their fight against the western world’s domination and support of a criminal zionist state. This is the reality. Youre trying to make this grayer than it is. Its not fully black and white but zionist influence and the unwavering support of zionism by the western banking military profiteering elite sows seeds of discontent and extremism while validating these sentiments. One person has been very concise in their expression of this reality and it was michael scheuyer who was the head of the osama bin laden fbi task force under the bush administration. Islamic extremism(which really is just localized solidarity and resistance towards an evil genocidal ethnostate) would not exist if the us and other western allies didnt give Israel Carte blanche to commit war crimes and genocide in that part of the world. A lot of money has been spent propagandizing americans to believe anything other than the truth. But the reality is that islamic empires have always been able to thrice and accept multiculturalism look at the moors and how their empire across the Iberian peninsula thrived for centuries before the crusades. Most people just believe what American corporatist influence tells them while they have never read the quran or taken time to understand islam/ arab culture. Which is no more violent or misogynistic than judaism. There is very little difference between the two in reality beaides the quran says allah/god created multiple worlds with civilizations on them.

  • But Reddit sent a mass message to moderators telling them how they were expected to moderate any content praising the extra judicial murder of brian Thompson or calling for more political violence against the bourgeoisie….. and now reddit is sending people the same automated response about how liking banned content is against their policy and can lead tk further punitive action against ones account. Basically threatening moderators with banning of the communities they moderate if they did not follow their censorship memorandum. Even before this last summer my account was permanently IP banned for a comment on a post about israel/palestine that essentially said international law states an occupied indigenous population has the right to defend itself by any means necessary including violent resistance. And i was definitely not the first to experience such censorship.

  • Lmao. Balfour was a puppey for lord rothschild. The balfour declaration pretty much stated they intended to give palestine to the zionists way before 1948.

    Theodore herzl went to Rothschild and asked for 15 million pounds (over 2 billion in today’s money) to buy Palestine from the ottomans but rothschild refused because why would they pay for it when he already owned the British empire through financial dominance. So he pressured the british to take it from the ottomans and then clandestinely funded all these Zionist terrorist groups to make it prohibitively expensive for the British to maintain their occupation and subsequently hasten the transfer of the land to the Zionists

    Not all people of the jewish faith are Zionists. Many Palestinian jews were slaughtered by Zionists during their terrorism spree before 1948. And there was no such thing as islamic extremism before the 1960’s so zionism created modern islamic extremist terrorism.

    You just seem to choose to believe that history books are factual and unbiased when this is far from the truth. Remember ghislane maxwell’s father who was a Mossad asset was involved in the publishing of school textbooks and maxwell herself was even a moderator on many reddit groups pertaining to world events and current news.

    And today mossad is funding massive social media troll farms to sway public perception and manipulate the narrative when it suits them. Zionism is evil and to say the rothschild family has not been directly involved with zionism since the late 19th century is just ignorant of reality. The Rothschild family has a long history of funding and arming both sides of military conflicts to profit regardless who wins or loses. They definitely have the wealth to use PR to manipulate their public image to their advantage. The whole “anyone who talks bad about the Rothschild family is an antisemitic nazi” is such clever redirecting propaganda. How can someone who is an anti fascist leftist critical of israel Be anti semitic? There are many jewish people who are also critical of israel. Israel is definitely a fascist regime committing genocide and ethnic cleansing and the history of who funded and empowered those responsible for israel’s current crimes against humanity is important to dissect snd investigate regardless who it makes angry. hasbarah is a real tactic used by zionists to attack their critics and the whole “anyone who says this and this or this about israel and or the Rothschild family” is just hasbarah misdirection.

    US “journalism” since the Reagan and bush sr. administrations both vetoed attempts to legislate the fairness in media doctrine have become blatant capitalist propaganda. Of course the west is going to condemn any rebel group that aims to re appropriate resources stolen from the people by repressive oligarchs like the saudi’s and other nations complicit in the western exploitation of looted third world resources for pennies on the dollar in the name of maximizing corporate profits. Im pretty sure the british said some nasty things after the boston tea party too. Rebels are always looked at as terrorists to those in power who commit war crimes with impunity. Those with the money who own the media dictate the narrative.

  • I just peruse to see the news but i was ip banned for posting comments critical of israel and supportive of Palestinian resistance about a year ago. Hopefully lemmy gets to s point where reddit becomes irrelevant but it is still in its infancy at the moment.

  • There is at least one luigi community on lemmy but its pretty small. Reddit deleted at least a dozen luigi Mangione communities that sprung up in the beginning that had hundreds of thousands of members snd now the 2 main groups are free luigi snd justice for luigi mangione there are also a couple anti luigi conservative corporate boot licking communities some think are satirical but are obviously not satire and just massive law enforcement dick sucking boot licking circle jerks one is r/fuckluigimangione its quite ridiculous.

    The freeluigi community has done a good job of posting pertinent news and information on the case but it is pretty mild and definitely working hard to neuter any calls for revolution against the wall street billionaire military and prison industry profiteer class to ensure reddit doesn’t shut it down as well or it could be LEO operated to keep an eye out on people who express opinions unfavorable of our billionaire slave masters

  • You may believe this is the case but it really is not. Look at the uss liberty incident. The us allowed Israel to attack a us naval vessel with impunity. Our entire political system in the us is owned and controlled by transnational multi billion dollar military and prison industry profiteers. they don't have any allegiance to the population of the usa besides their own class who all seem to vehemently support the same cause of the zionist ethno state of israel and the perpetuation of an obvious genocide against the indigenous inhabitants of Palestine. This all goes back to the rothschild family, the balfour declaration Theodore Herzl and the several Zionist terrorist paramilitary Groups that waged terror across the levant from the earliest moments of the 20th century until 1948 when the British occupation of palestine ended and the british empire gave control of Palestine to zionist leaders who then condemned the terrorists groups who carried out violent bombings, attacks assassinations and instigated riots that were responsible for the deaths of several thousand Palestinian jews, Christians Muslims as well as American expats, British citizens and British troops stationed in Palestine. But despite condemning these criminals the ranks of their terrorist groups (hagannah, irgun, palmach and lehi) were welcomed into the newly formed govenrment as well as the IDF and mossad and many of the current zionist politicians in the likud party and other Zionist political factions have direct familial ties to members of these terrorist groups. These wealthy individuals who had the power connections and means to form these paramilitary organizations still have family members directly involved in central banking institutions such as the IMF world bank wall street and other connected institutions. These are people who consider themselves far beyond reproach and above governments. The rothschild family has spent a lot on PR to cleverly deflect any criticism of their wealth and how they use it as anti semitism but the Zionist movement would not be what it is today without the blood money of this central banking family of genocidal war mongers
