Moon of Alabama – July 12, 2022
Let me recommend to everyone the speech Michael Hudson has held on Monday for China’s Global University. It digs to the core of the illness that has taken over ‘western’ societies.
The issue is debt which historically was largely forgiven by the king or high priest in case of hard times. But during the time of the Greek and later Roman empires oligarchs took over and demanded to pay back all debt in full and even in hard times. This split societies into a rich rentier class and indebted plebs. Each empire that followed that path, from the Roman to the British one, eventually came down due to over-indebtedness.
The U.S. is the current global empire which is way down on this path. It is hostile to all societies that do not open their financial markets to be robbed by U.S. oligarchs. This is at the core of the current global conflict as China, Russia, Iran and Venezuela developed from different traditions and reject to give in to U.S. demands. The U.S. is used to solve such ‘problems’ by force but is now likely too weak to achieve that.
Naked Capitalism is the first to publish the English language version of Hudson’s speech:
The core paragraphs are probably these:
The United States through its New Cold War is aiming at securing precisely such economic tribute from other countries. The coming conflict may last for perhaps twenty years and will determine what kind of political and economic system the world will have. At issue is more than just U.S. hegemony and its dollarized control of international finance and money creation. Politically at issue is the idea of “democracy” that has become a euphemism for an aggressive financial oligarchy seeking to impose itself globally by predatory financial, economic and political control backed by military force.
As I have sought to emphasize, oligarchic control of government has been the distinguishing feature of Western civilization ever since classical antiquity. And the key to this control has been opposition to strong government – that is, civil government strong enough to prevent a creditor oligarchy from emerging and monopolizing control of land and wealth, making itself into a hereditary aristocracy, a rentierclass living off land rents, interest and monopoly privileges that reduce the population at large to austerity.
It will be necessary to bring down the rentierclass. To recommit to a strong state that owns the public goods and services and does not hand them over to private interests. The coming malaise may well help to achieve that.
The roman empire collapsed because they ended up with two roman empires due to two people wanting to be “leader”, and those two tore the thing to pieces trying to make themselves so.
The british empire collapsed due to corruption and greed — a thing that is endemic in britain — and which, ironically, was the thing very that created the empire to begin with. It was helped along by the fact that all the victim countries managed to get guns — the british always like to shoot people that only have bows and arrows.
It seems even more imperative Russia stops providing oil and gas to the EU which is on the side working towards Russia’s collapse. Divide the EU from the US-NATO from the outside to cause a split that can’t be healed, as the economic damage to the bloc and the unrest it brings works to collapse it from the inside.
bring down the parasiting globalist
jew oligarchs with all their masonry
servants + WEF Young Global Leaders !
GUILLIOTINES RULE !
Our Wobbly Future :
Unbelievably, Hawley’s answer causes Bridges to thank him as if he had just validated her point about “pretending trans people don’t exist.” These radicals are delusional.
Watch the twitter Video :

Keep in mind – this woman is a prominent ‘academic’ and professor – who influences legal students – at supposedly one of the foremost colleges in the country, if not the world. Berkeley currently ranks as the top public university in the US and is fourth-best overall, according to U.S. News & World Report’s latest global rankings. The cost of tuition per year at the college is a whopping $44,066 as of 2020 – a pretty penny to learn from radicals like Bridges.

What is new? Brainwashed from birth into madness. Greed, Europeans way of doing business.
War is inevitable? Path set long time ago!!!, Called colonialism !!!
Just the way it is!!!

Money — the root of all evil. Created by humans — the other root of all evil.
Debt is not.
It is sexual corruption.
I would be careful with Michael Hudson, over at Unz my comments on his articles have been censored. I carefully criticized his acceptance of the global warming hoax with charts and evidence and they would not publish them. Hudson wanted all my comments removed.
IMO he is a fraud just like “Michael” Snyder who writes the economic collapse blog.
Anyone promoting climate change is either a tool or an idiot.
Anyone failing to mention Jew causality is a gatekeeper.
And since when has any PhD ever gotten the markets right?
Multiculturalism is what destroys nations. A Trojan horse sent by the Parasites 👃😈🕍👁🔯
Yin gitty–what about hyenas and funnel-web spiders and angler fish and rattle-snakes and crocodiles?
What sniveling bullshit, Moon and Hudson spouting off about “U.S. oligarchs” destroying working people everywhere but never mentioning the Jew.
“[The U.S.] is hostile to all societies that do not open their financial markets to be robbed by U.S. oligarchs.” But no mention the so-called U.S. oligarchs are practically all Jews, and Jews who have ZERO allegiance to the U.S. no less. Those parasitic satanic Jews not only have no allegiance to the Jewnited States, they sodomize and subvert the country at every opportunity and rape, rob, destroy, and murder the citizens just for fun.
That asshole Moon puked out, “It digs to the core of the illness that has taken over ‘western’ societies.” But Moon sure didn’t mention the “core of the illness” is Jewry and the stranglehold JEWS have on the systems of credit and currency.
As Yukon correctly stated above in his comment, “Anyone failing to mention Jew causality is a gatekeeper.” And calling them merely a “gatekeeper” is being overly generous, as I think much worse of those types.
Yukon Jack: Totally. This New Cold War argument is laughable and misleading. There is only ONE TEAM. All countries, every single one of them, have long been taken over by the globalist banksters. The whole world is a stage, and everyone plays their part.
Im the past 10 years alone, Russia has time and again immiserated its own people. Spent 50 billion on winter olympics (much of it probably sits in safe havens). Agreed, in 2014, to let oil and other commodity prices collapse, burying any prosperity the Moscow middle classes once enjoyed. Always stocked up on the T-bills, again to ruinous effect. And now it’s conveniently attacking Ukraine, just when the pandemic narrative ran out of steam.
Cui bono? Uncle Sam and the City of London, that’s who.
The best government is no government. There is no way a ‘strong’ central government is going to resist the temptation to control the world. Ain’t gonna happen!
Jahi Sami–when nogwog does some colonialism/colonising, it is called a diaspora, as if they were scattered by a big bully and were not looking for free money off Whitey
It’s not debt that causes empires to fall, it’s moral decadence. One of the Roman writers commented that when a state has more poets (read ‘artisitic types’) than soldiers, it’s doomed.
it was made very sly of the USA billionary
jews to break down US industries + transfer
it to china . i think the aim is inclusive covid
to break down workforce as they are no more
needed with modern technology . the rest
survivers not able to get employment then
are forced only to be enlisted by army +navy
to fight for jew globalist bankers .
@ KEN
there will always be a government if
not jewish, then by islamic throatcutters
or any other criminal mafia .
violence + oppression is their nature .
