#Reagan and #Thatcher will be remembered for lighting the match that set fire to the powder trail leading to the barrel of black powder yet to explode, but they did not manufacture that match out of thin air. It was an organisation that produced the *RoadMap* for them both and self-interests did the rest.
βAt his first cabinet meeting as president in 1981, Reagan distributed copies of Mandate for Leadership, whose 3,000 pages came out of the Heritage Foundation, a conservative research group in Washington, DC. This became the ideology of neoliberalism, which advocated a smaller state, industry deregulation, tax cuts, strengthened defence, and roll-back of social engineering. A year later, 60 per cent of the Mandateβs proposals had been adopted by the Reagan administration, and The New York Times called it βthe manifesto of the Reagan revolutionβ. His initiative engaged Thatcher, and spread globally to dominate public policy in democracies around the world.β
The same **Heritage Foundation** is behind #tRump βs two terms as #POTUS. If you didnβt know before, itβs all about #NeoLiberalism a combination of #Libertarianism and #Neo-Classical #EconomicTheory sure to please the #Rich and #Entitled in any society.

The #TeaParty from #GOP was just one of the test flight groups to finally get to #Trump after it all started in earnest with #Reagan.

@26pglt
Political differentiation is whatβs needed in a political system where all parties (even the #Greens afaik) are content to work with the current #Economic system which is stuck in a 40 year old dogma; that markets know best (aka #NeoClassical or #NeoLiberal economic hogwash clearly debunked twice since the #Thatcher and #Reagan anathema on #WealthEquity , #SocialLicence and #SocialDemocracy).Otherwise the electorate would wake up to the con job the polies perpetrate.
And 100% on #FirstNations and #TorresStraightIslanders, all players in the political arena have #Abandonned them as a result of #TheVoice debacle (thank you #Anthony for doing fuck all to make sure the referendum passed, it clearly showed whose side youβre on #AlboPM )
Iβm fucking sick of all polies and their lies, redirections, misdirections and disinformation. I can see no way out of this except 1) a mother of all global financial crash, or 2) peopleβs revolutions worldwide, or 3) both. Weβve been taken for a ride for far too long IMO.

This bears sharing till we all see the #truth of our shared #history: π those #1980s "leaders" - #Reagan & #Thatcher especially, & lackey-in-chief #Greenspan - these & the #conservatives that followed them, have endowed upon our 21st century a world of the hollowed #middleclass, gross #inequality, fiscal & monetary mismanagement leading to #highCPI, & endless #wars (including the enablement of #genocide such as in #Gaza).

Thatcher, Reagan were the wrecking crew: How we keep pushing mess
This story is about the ideology that won. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, two politicians on either side of the Atlantic didnβt only win elections, they reshaped what people came to accept as βcommon sense.β Margaret Thatcher in Britain and Ronald Reagan in the United States did not invent capitalismβs worst tendencies, but they gave them state power, institutional infrastructure, and ideological legitimacy. What they built was not simply a set of policies, it was a social [β¦]https://hamishcampbell.com/thatcher-reagan-were-the-wrecking-crew-how-we-pushed-the-current-mess/

I don't feel like "Saint" Ronnie Reagan gets nearly enough hate. Oh, and Lewis Powell, fuck him too.

Ellis gave us Reaganβs hollowed children. Welsh gave us Thatcherβs lost boys. The films gave us smoothies. Less Than Zero was gutted; Trainspotting was diluted. Junkies as simulacra, copies of copies, safe for consumption. Literature showed us rot; cinema pasteurised it.

For the first time since the start of his second term, #Trump hit 50% #disapproval in #VoteHub's #polling #aggregation today. https://votehub.com/polls/
Presidents have come back from this. #Reagan bottomed out at something like 30% early in his first term, and then of course won re-election in a landslide. But Trump doesn't have that kind of political acumen.
If we have anything resembling a fair #election, 2026 will be a bloodbath, and I'm willing to bet 2028 as well. If we don't, well, it will be a bloodbath of a different kind.

so when #actors #comedians and #clowns are in #power u can expect shit to happen
what kind of #guarantees does #Zelenskyy want? #NATO like guarantees? that's probably too much to ask for (right now)
but yes #zelenskyy is right, that this #mineraldeal should be just the start
but they already messed up the start :(
#US #companies doing #mining in #Ukraine would be great, because they will SURELY protect their #mining sites with #antiaircraft #guns and #rockets so this is a win for #Ukraine
#unfortunately this is also #true #zelenskyy was a #comedian, #actor (just as '#Reagan btw) is #rich and #rutheless does he even care about #Ukraine? (or just about himself) i don't know

#THIS all over the place

Halabja : 35 years later!
Time flies. It wasn't yesterday, but I still remember the first I heard the news on shortwave radio.
Saddam had used chemical weapons again, but this time targeting civilians in IrQi Kurdistan.
Reports were mentioning some horrifying scenes of people lying dead on the allys and pathways, door fronts or in their homes.
US and UK did everything in their power to prevent the UN to condemn the Saddam regime and put the blame first on Iran, then under pressure, changing the UN resolution to condemn both sides using chemical weapons.
Even 10 years later, long after operation Desert Storm and massive bombing campaign that followed, the no fly zone over Iraqi Kurdistan and occasional bombing of Saddam military operating there, a team of reporters from American TV channel CBS went to visit the place.
The 60 minutes team visited Halabja, met with the locals and went to see the graves. The people were desperate, 100s of people were still suffering from the aftermath of the chemical attacks. Without any help, they were suffering and dying.
Even the ground water was contaminated, partially because of the clean up operation, but also from the corps of the victims leaking deadly chemicals into the ground water that people used for drinking and farming.
The short 20 minutes or so that the CBS team used in their broadcast went missing during the lies of post 9/11, when suddenly US started to scare the world of the danger of Saddam with his WMDs and Collin Powell went to the UN and showed the world what he claimed being enough Anthrax to kill thousands of people in the most horrifying way.
What they didn't say was that Powell was one of Reagan's men working with Saddam's army to coordinate their attacks against Iranian and Kurdish forces. He was probably aware of fhd usage of a cocktail of chemical weapons given to Saddam by German chemical companies, with the help of French and Italian scientist and American helicopters and Soviet chemical bomb canisters. But Powell didn't say anything about those, he was quiet for 15 years and never ever told anyone how much help and Support Saddam received from Americans, French and Britta to fight the barbarian army of Iranians. Because after all Iran was the enemy, not Saddam.
35 years have past, none of those who provided those deadly weapons to Saddam were prosecuted nor named or shamed.
Saddam is gone, and once again, Iran is the target of the US and the memory of those victims of chemical attacks against Halbja and over 30 Iranian sites that no one even care to remember, are all gone.
US is now the savior of the free world, standing up alongside other NATO nations against the new enemy from the east, Putin and his friends Lukashenko and Reisi with the hint of help from China.
America is the source of good, and only grumpy old men like me remember the dirty history of men who are acting like they are the moral guardians of our world.
And for people of Halabja, no one really cares.
