MARKETS ARE... LE BAD ACTUALLY(?)

Recently I got thinking how market can be a bad form of resource allocation, somehow I think market aren't complete fair and square, something isn't right about how markets are, I think market socialism is kind of wrong in sense, what's the anon opinion on markets in general? Do you think is a good way to allocate resources or not? What's the alternative to markets?

GrapheneOS cannot be fully trusted because it runs on Google's proprietary hardware stack, which remains a critical vulnerability. While GrapheneOS markets itself as a privacy-focused alternative, its security is undermined by the fact that it operates on devices like Google's Pixel smartphones—hardware designed and controlled entirely by Google. Unlike other OEMs, Google does not merely integrate off-the-shelf components; it designs its own processors (e.g., Tensor chips) and develops the closed-source firmware and software that power them. Other manufacturers receive binary blobs from chipmakers, which they cannot modify, but Google retains unilateral authority to embed hidden functionalities or surveillance mechanisms directly into the hardware-software ecosystem.

This means Google could inject malicious code into the processor’s firmware—code that operates independently of Android (and thus independently of GrapheneOS itself). Such malware would run at the hardware level, bypassing the operating system entirely and evading detection. If Google exploits this capability in its proprietary GApps, the same logic applies to the foundational software controlling its processors. Since GrapheneOS cannot audit or modify these closed-source components, users are left exposed to potential backdoors.

If you trust GrapheneOS on Pixel devices, you must also trust Google’s closed-source hardware stack—the very same infrastructure that could enable pervasive surveillance. In that case, there is no meaningful distinction between GrapheneOS and stock Android; both rely on Google’s opaque technology. Conversely, if you reject GApps and Google’s data harvesting, you cannot reconcile that distrust with reliance on Google’s hardware. To truly deGoogle, you must abandon devices where the manufacturer controls the silicon itself.

Eugenicist Canadian healthcare system murders baby for being disabled

We frequently talk about how eugenics is the ideological backbone of capitalism and how nearly every aspect of capitalism is rooted in eugenics. This happens even in capitalist countries with “universal” healthcare such as Canada, where a hospital recently killed a baby girl by denying her a much-needed liver transplant. Why? Because she had Down Syndrome.

>Krystal Vanderbrugghen gave birth to her daughter, Veya, in December of 2023. She was born with Down syndrome and a congenital heart defect (CHD). Though Veya was able to have a successful heart repair, she then began experiencing complications with her liver.


>In an interview with Live Action News, Vanderbrugghen said Veya is a medically complex child, but her liver has been an ongoing problem, which took nearly a year to diagnose.


>As the hospital attempted treatment with multiple procedures last year, Veya then contracted Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) — which is mild in adults, but can be life-threatening for infants, the elderly, or people with compromised immune systems. “That really knocked her down,” Vanderbrugghen said.


But then, this year, something even more frightening occurred.

>“… [T]he more alarming thing that happened was she was overdosed on January 6th of this year with potassium… 10 times the amount of what she normally receives,” Vanderbrugghen told Live Action News. “… [S]he usually gets two doses of potassium in a day. Each are drawn up as 1.5 milliliters. And on that day, she got two syringes filled with 15 milliliters of potassium. So that sent her heart rate to 350 beats per minute, and they had to use cardioversion shocks on her three times to stabilize her.”


>Initially, Vanderbrugghen assumed it was an honest mistake. But due to subsequent events, she’s now questioning if it was truly an accident.


>Just two weeks after this terrifying incident in January, the family met with Veya’s team of doctors treating her liver condition. “… [E]verything we’ve done so far has not been successful,” said Vanderbrugghen. “And that’s when we learned that she was denied a transplant, which left us questioning a lot of things.”


>The reason for the family’s confusion is because all of Veya’s “individual system teams — like cardiology, nephrology, respirology, all of them — said she would do great, and she’s allowed to go for the liver transplant,” she said. The transplant team seeks feedback from those teams to help determine whether a transplant is a good course of action.


>“But [the transplant team] decided that they were looking at the big picture and said no,” Vanderbrugghen said. “And so I’ve been asking for six months, what is this ‘big picture’?”


>When Vanderbrugghen challenged Veya’s medical team, she said she was then told that the doctors “need to think about the live donor. If it’s not successful, we don’t want to put them through it.”


>Vanderbrugghen argued that “consenting adults” can choose whether or not to take the risk, “knowing that it may work or it may not work” — and urged the transplant team to leave the decision to the donor or donors.


https://www.liveaction.org/news/mom-fights-save-daughter-canadian-healthcare-dead/

This disabled baby later died of her illness on August 1. She was 20 months old and slept her entire life at the mercy of doctors who routinely denied her care BECAUSE of her disability.

So why aren’t comrades up in arms about this? Denying a baby with Down Syndrome an organ transplant because of their disability and “quality of life” sets a dangerous precedent. Imagine if autistic people were denied lifesaving care in the basis our “quality of life” wouldn’t improve and scarce organs should only go to allistic people instead? Canada is already in the middle of legalizing MAiD for neurodivergent differences just like they push MAiD on people with physical disabilities. They literally want all disabled people eradicated.

We need to stop this and demand action against eugenics.

RIP Veya and all other disabled people killed by eugenics

Where can the working man go out to have a drink?

Admitedly l live in a pretty rural area but l have a hard time imagining anything is any cheeper in the city.
ln my area there are basically two options it seems:
1.
>Corporate ass chain bar (Buffalo Wild Wings,Primanti Brothers, Rubee Tuesdays ect)
>Decent prices on Beer but absolutely criminal prices on food: $15.99 for 10 chickwings $11.99 for 5 shittle little pretzel ""knots"" (cubes), $9.99 for a plate of fucking tator tots.
>Can stream just about any sports game you want always blaring the coverage or music to fucking loud
>Staff/Customers tend to have normie lib politics
2.
>Redneck ass "hole in the wall" dive bar
>Same half decent deals on drinks but food tends to be significantly cheaper (60 cent wings on wing night, Burger and fries for $10, apitizers which are actually under $10 for a plate cheese curds or gravy fries or what have you)
>All the TVs are constatly playing Fox News with the sound off making it so quite if the bar isn't packed other people can hear every word of your conversation with a friend and its like pulling fucking teeth to get them to turn on an NFL game which they may not even have.
>Staff/Customers are all some brand of reactionary.
Are there any other options l am unaware of?
Any chain bars you guys know of that actually have decent deals on food??
One of the few social things l have is going to the bar once a week with some friends from the McDonalds l work at and between bills and putting $100 a month away for savings l can only afford to spend 25-30 bucks a week on the outing.
lts also one of the only places l've ever succesfully done any actual work place organizing: it was on a bar night a couple years ago that we finally got everyone in our franchize to demand $15 an hour or we'd walk out.
lt's not just for the sake of my own personal affinity for hot wings and beer: we need a place that's cheap and at the least isn't actively hostile to people having left leaning conversations at the bar.
Anyone have any suggestions??

Come and visit this thread! Users of leftypol, siberia, for the 420chan Culture Museum.
Here you can see an array of ancient and modern screenshots, that stem from the wonderful civilization of narcomania that inhabited the place once known as 420chan, a place that is promised to return one day.
Our unique collection of historical screenshots tells the story of human relations with psychoactive substances.

Political implications of more Americans converting to Catholicism?

The American right was heavily associated with Evangelical idpol for the past 50 years. They became the cultural backbone of the GOP from the 80s to the late 2000s. Now it appears like a huge number of former Evangelicals are converting to Catholicism. I even know some ex-Mormons who are Catholic now.

At the same time, it seems like leftists are embracing Catholicism too. Remember when everyone was convinced Pope Francis was a secret socialist? Jacobin mag goes out of their way with appealing to Catholics as well (every other article of theirs is something along the lines of: “Move over pink-haired bipolar feminist queers, here’s why the Catholic Church are the REAL socialists!”). People like Dorothy Day are propped up even though her actual contributions to the American left were minimal and symbolic at best (the Catholic Worker also referred to the priests killed by /ourguys/ in Catalonia as “martyrs” which is disgusting). Not to mention, the Jacobin crowd seems very big on appealing to right-wing Catholic sentiments like complaining about birthrates being too low and proposing Bernie-style policies like universal healthcare to “fix” it, as if low birthrates are a problem to begin with.

But anyway, if Catholicism becomes a major cultural force in America in the next few years how do you see it affecting the political landscape?

1. Religion is the opium of the people.
2. Religion justifies an unequal social order.
3. The problem of an afterlife gives people something to look forward to after death.
4. Religion makes a virtue out of suffering.
5. Religion offers the false hope of supernatural intervention to improve current conditions.
6. Religion is a form of social control.
7. The bourgeoisie and religious authorities also support other more overtly brutal methods of control.
8. The bourgeoisie fund the religious institutions.
9. The religious institutions are class-collaborationist and legitimize bourgeois power through ideas like "prosperity gospel."
10. Religion is not necessary under socialism or communism.
11. Religion has no purpose if there is no longer clas society since its purpose is to justify an unequal social order and to provide the exploited with a coping method with their misery.
12. With communism and decent working conditions controlled by the workers religion will wither away.
13. Religion creates false consciousness.
14. Religion mystifies material phenomena.
15. Religion teaches that human misery is a result of divine will.

Can these theses on religion be refuted?

Question

Originally I'm a MLM, but i've been reading more into libertarian socialist sphere lately , and discovered platformism and other as such anarchist-libertarian socialist ideologys and ideas, and with this wishing to ask how could a "nation" with a such system platformism/anarcho syndicalism/democratic confederalism, anarcho comm, etc. Would be able to effectivelly protect itself from other bigger [or smaller-same size] imperialist, capitalist, authoirtarian-states, throw military means

And on the other hand, how would such a socities would even function in sharing materials, education, medicine, higher education, or manage crime, punishment, law, politics, councils/government/'s ?

This is an observation based purely on vibes, but I feel like the general trend of millennial adult cartoon/video game parodies has always been some variation of those characters doing drugs and being raunchy, even Meatcanyon technically follows this formula(though to the most extreme extent) Zoomers on the other hand place cartoon characters in normal situations and are as realistic as possible while still remaining somewhat in character, like Phineas and Buford fighting arguing in a waffle house

King of The Hill went woke in a bad way

KOTH was meant to be a parody of suburban rednecks, introducing random negroes and random faggotry the characters are suddenly fine with ruins the point, its that simple.
It was such a rushed piece of shit they skipped over Luanne and Lucky.

The problem is not with negroes or faggots in general (guess which one of the two I am), but that they don't belong in the show about pure redneck hillbilly retardation.

The animation is awful (look at the fucking wedding dance scene), they added trashy trendy pop culture references. It's completely humorless. They turned King of The Hill into Bob's Burgers. And of course the fans will just enjoy the slop and defend it like its the best thing ever, if the fans are even real people and not just bots like they appear to be. Searching for any criticism yields almost no results.

People who hate on all modern art/architecture are NPCs

So fucking tired of retards who jerk off to photorealism and AI slop while hating on any art movement after Romanticism, even though the best avant-garde artists like Salvador Dalí had to study classical techniques meticulously before doing any kind of abstraction.

You're not sophisticated, you're just a mental child who thinks art has to be "pretty" or it has no value.

The EU is going to scan all private messages and photos

EU’s “Chat Control” will be forced to scan every message, photo, and file before it is encrypted on WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and other all other apps.
Politicians would be exempt. It is being sold as “child protection” but the EU’s own legal service warns that it violates fundamental rights. Once a backdoor into encryption exists, it is not just governments who can use it. Hackers, criminals, and hostile states can too.

Today (with real encryption): Message is locked on your phone. Not even WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram (secret chat) can read it. Only the recipient can open it.
Under Chat Control: Your message is opened and scanned on your phone before encryption. If the scanning software believes it finds “prohibited” content, even by mistake, it is sent to the authorities.
Austria opposes the plan, but 19 EU countries already support it. If Germany joins them, the law could pass in October.

According to the campaign:
Mass surveillance: Every message, file, and image sent without suspicion would be automatically scanned.
Encryption undermined: End-to-end encryption would be weakened or broken, putting all communication at risk for everyone, not just criminals.
False positives: Innocent content such as jokes or holiday photos could be misidentified and trigger investigations.
Exemptions for politicians: Officials would be excluded under “professional secrecy” while normal citizens lose their privacy.
————————-
Personally I thought they already did that. I guess things will just get worse.

The mass grooming of young men into nazism on the sharty and imageboards

Imageboards have of course been filled with nazis for a fuck ton of time from even the start, but most people agree it mainly started when moot added /news/ then all the chudcels flooded the rest of the site, then created /pol/ and the rest is history.

With that being said, how do we realistically combat the mass grooming of people into nazism through imageboards? The sharty is becoming the new 8chan but with way more cultural influence on the wider internet and the rest of the population is filled with young children, we have already seen solomon (a mass shooter that was a black man yet he was also a white supremacist with sharty connections) commit a mass shooting. With that being said clearly a lot of these young men are isolated and angry, doxxing random literal WHOS because they are trans, or even doing raids that help the federal government because the site is influenced by glowies. They even raided our very booru 2 days ago, and ILLEGAL CONTENT was posted (this was done by foodist nazis not soyteens but still scary that it’s that prevalent with their raids).

And with the thought on raids we can see some of these young people are being groomed into actual pedophile nazi communities but the sharty staff and wiki are so up their asses that they can’t see they have ideological similarities with the nazi foodists and that’s why they surround them.

They have crushed /leftysoy/ and banned many leftists on their wiki including me, I think this is gonna evolve into something much worst if we don’t do anything.

Europe’s economy can’t grow without migrants EU Central bank president warns

>Foreign workers delivered half of the bloc’s jobs growth since 2022, but populist backlash could shut the door on future gains, ECB chief said.

>The European Union's economy would have looked far weaker after the pandemic without foreign workers, European Central Bank chief Christine Lagarde said Saturday, warning policymakers not to ignore migration’s role even as it fuels political tensions.


>Speaking at the U.S. Federal Reserve’s annual symposium in Wyoming, Lagarde said an influx of foreign labor helped the eurozone absorb successive shocks like soaring energy costs and record inflation, while keeping growth and jobs intact. Employment in the bloc expanded by 4.1 percent between late 2021 and mid-2025, nearly matching gains in gross domestic product (GDP), she noted.


>“Although they represented only around 9 percent of the total labor force in 2022, foreign workers have accounted for half of its growth over the past three years,” Lagarde told the gathering of central bankers. Without that contribution, she added, “labor market conditions could be tighter and output lower.”


>Lagarde singled out Germany and Spain as examples. Germany’s GDP would be about 6 percent lower today without migrant labor, while Spain’s strong recovery also “owes much” to foreign workers, she said. Across the eurozone, employment has expanded by more than 4 percent since 2021, even as central bankers pushed through the steepest rate hikes in a generation.


>The ECB president argued that migration has played a crucial role in offsetting Europe’s shrinking birth rate and growing appetite for shorter working hours. That, she said, helped companies expand output and damped inflationary pressures even as wages lagged behind prices.


>But Lagarde also acknowledged the politics. Net immigration pushed the EU’s population to a record 450 million last year, even as governments from Berlin to Rome move to restrict new arrivals under pressure from voters flocking to far-right parties.


>“Migration could, in principle, play a crucial role in easing labor shortages as native populations age,” Lagarde said. “But political economy pressures may increasingly limit inflows.”


>She stressed that Europe’s labor market has emerged from recent shocks in “unexpectedly good shape.” But she cautioned against assuming that dynamic will last: demographic decline, political backlash and shifting worker preferences still threaten the eurozone’s resilience.


https://www.politico.eu/article/europes-economy-cant-grow-without-migrants-lagarde-warns/

>On 5 July 2011, she was elected to replace Dominique Strauss-Kahn as managing director of the IMF for a five-year term.[3][4][5] Her appointment was the 11th consecutive appointment of a European to head the IMF.[6] She was selected by consensus for a second five-year term, starting 5 July 2016, being the only candidate nominated for the post.[7] In December 2016, a French court convicted her of negligence relating to her role in the Bernard Tapie arbitration,[8] but did not impose a penalty. Lagarde resigned from the IMF following her nomination as president of the ECB.

I'm a Socialist but I don't buy into ideas of Marxist historiography

For one big example, Look at all that had to happen for the Bolsheviks to succeeded
>WW1
>Nicholas making the decision to go to the front line to lead the troops
>The February Revolution
>Kerensky re-entering Russia into WW1
>Kerensky's government collapsing because he tried to orchestrate a coup on himself and then double crossed the Army by arming red militias in petrograd
>The liberals giving the Bolsheviks(among other parties) guns to help stop the Army from overthrowing the provisional government.
>The other socialist parties(which were more popular) believing Lenin would reinstall the constituent assembly
>When the SRs did rise up they refused to execute captured bolshevik officers or do much of anything.
>When the Petrograd sailors rebelled they sat on their island printing newspapers hoping that the people of Russia would realize Lenin was a big meaniehead and get rid of him.

Obviously the future is not a wide-open blank slate where anything can happen. Even massive upheavals like the First World War had observable conditions. But the way it unfolded(with Belgium being invaded and Britain, followed by America, entering the conflict) was due to random chances and the decisions of a handful of individuals.

I joined this community because leftism seems to be categorically anti-harm. In other words, it was the most wholesome board I could find.

Does anyone else here consider themselves both a Communist and also a philosophical Pessimist?

Do you believe that it is precisely because this reality we live in is so miserable, cruel, outright horrible for the vast majority that we therefore must show compassion by furthering and supporting the only political movement that seeks to improve conditions for the masses for whom life is mostly suffering?
To me it's the only position that makes sense. How could you not hold to the only politics that seeks to eliminate suffering in as far is possible?

While Schopenhauer may have been a conservative and an idealist, there is also a long and often forgotten history of materialistic, Marxist pessimism - although most of it is still pretty underground and still untranslated.
For example, the work of Philipp Mainländer (don't be distracted by his use of "God" as a metaphor for the Universe) has gained some influence of late, and there is also Sebastiano Timpanaro who I must admit I am yet to read for myself.
I'm not a big Zizek fan but he has also stated "a Communist Should Assume Life Is Hell" and spoken on how philosophical Pessimism and Marxism fit together very well, with Marxism presenting a solution to many of the problems of Pessimism.

In contrast, if you don't consider yourself a pessimist, why not? What do you think Leftypol?

Only Fans is unironically PB

The title is clickbait, thoughever I have just found out some interesting facts about Only Fans. I tried to start a 'creator' account due to financial issues but when I did I got stopped on this thing called a Tax ID or something like it. I had no clue what it was but apparently its like something you need if you are bourgeois. And I don't have one obviously so I could not make a monetized Only Fans account. I don't know the specifics of the Tax ID number but my PB friend said you need to register as an entrepeneur and then you get one. So if I'm understanding this right, Only Fans pornstars are in fact legally petit-bourgeois.

In reality they are not PB though. The whole 'self employed' thing doesn't mean they are PB, it means the Only Fans corp doesn't have to pay regular wages. Only Fans porn actors are either lumpen or possibly proletarians working for Only Fans (and remember what Marx says in Capital - piece work is the most exploitative type).

Question to Leftcoms/Bordigists/anti-stalinists:

I get that "Socialism in One Country" was ultimately a disastrous policy that ended in complete failure and that the Stalinists revised a lot of Marx's and Lenin's theory to falsely claim that the USSR had already achieved Socialism and ended class struggle in the fucking 30s but realistically speaking, what other approach could they have taken after the failure of the German and Hungarian revolutions?
Like if you were Stalin in the 1930 what would you have done differently to ensure that the Soviet Union stayed in the path of socialism while also maintaining theoretical purity?

compare these passages on identity politics with the western talk of a consumption based community like a "speedrunning community" or with Dugin's idpol of the "impermeable dasein" of a "civilizational state" which is eternally essentially a certain way (allegedly) and never changes.

we are all human, are we not? But if you appeal to humanity, even some Marxists will cry out "no you are doing liberal humanism right now" because to appeal to humanity is to interrupt class identity and proletarian supremacy, which to some is "liberal humanism."

Everyone has their own idpol but at the end of the day communism means abolishing both class and identities and finally just being a homogenous humanity. Species-being. But some will say this is "humanism" and therefore "liberal" AKA "bad".

anti russian posting

I know there's people who genuinely hate russia, and for good reasons. But why are many imageboard users posting "russia is the antichrist" type shit? Where everything russian is bad and must be razed to the ground and annihilated, and where even agreeing with something russian will get you called a bot? Is the pentagon doing it's thing again? I don't see genuine ukrainian supporters guessing due to contrarianism, but why russia hate? The hacking story was just a "saddam wmd" situation (it's probably israel) and the demoralization campaign was obviously glowing bullshit.

Corporate Manufactured Conflict


Manufactured Enemies, Managed Wars: From the Cold War to the War on Terror

By the late 2000s, the curtain had been pulled back on America’s “perpetual enemy machine.” The Cold War, the War on Terror, and even cultural products like *Metal Gear Solid* all reveal the same pattern: empires manufacture threats in order to sustain war economies. The names change — communists, terrorists, rogue states — but the structure remains constant.



## Supplying the Enemy: Jordan and Sutton

Major George Racey Jordan, stationed at Great Falls during World War II, kept meticulous diaries of shipments moving to the Soviet Union under Lend-Lease. Among the cargo: uranium, heavy water, and precision instruments for nuclear development. Jordan later testified that Washington “deliberately built up the Soviet atomic arsenal.”

Historian Anthony C. Sutton confirmed the broader picture: Western corporations built the Soviet industrial base. “The United States government was, in effect, financing its own enemy,” Sutton wrote in *National Suicide: Military Aid to the Soviet Union* (1973). Ford Motor built the Gorky plant, Standard Oil supplied fuel, and General Electric exported electrical infrastructure.



## The Iron Fist of Capital

Kevin Carson, in his 2001 essay *The Iron Fist Behind the Invisible Hand*, argued that capitalism as we know it is inseparable from state power:

> “What we call the ‘free market’ is in practice a set of monopolies, cartels, and privileges maintained by force of law and police power.”


Carson’s framework reframes Sutton’s research: collusion wasn’t an aberration, but the system’s essence. State capitalism requires enemies, subsidies, and permanent crisis.



## Zbigniew Brzezinski and Henry Kissinger: The Elite Blueprint

This logic wasn’t hidden. It was articulated by America’s own strategists.

Zbigniew Brzezinski, in *The Grand Chessboard* (1997), bluntly admitted:

> “America’s capacity to exercise global primacy is directly dependent on how long and how effectively its preponderance on the Eurasian continent is sustained.”


Henry Kissinger was even more candid about war as management:

> “Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.”


These aren’t slip-ups. They are the quiet part spoken aloud: power requires engineered scarcity and dependency.



## The U.S.–Israel Axis

Noam Chomsky has long emphasized that U.S. support for Israel is not about democracy but about strategy:

> “Israel has become a kind of offshore U.S. military base in the Middle East.” (*The Fateful Triangle*, 1983)


Whitney Webb has extended these critiques into the 21st century, tracing networks linking Israeli intelligence firms, Wall Street financiers, and Silicon Valley platforms. The “special relationship” is not sentimental. It is structural: an integrated war economy.



## Cultural Mirror: The Metal Gear Saga

The *Metal Gear Solid* series (1987–2015) is perhaps the clearest cultural allegory of this collusion. Hideo Kojima’s games dramatize the military-industrial complex as a secret network — “the Patriots” — that manipulates conflicts to perpetuate its own dominance.

* In *MGS2*, the Patriots manufacture “terrorist” threats to justify control over information flows.
* In *MGS3*, the Cold War is shown as a stage-managed conflict, with superpowers colluding behind the scenes.
* In *MGS4*, war becomes fully privatized: PMCs (Private Military Companies) fight endless, meaningless battles, sustained by nanomachine control systems — a critique of the War on Terror’s corporate dependency.

Kojima’s fiction resonates with Sutton and Carson: the enemy is constructed, the battlefield is managed, and war becomes the operating system of global power.



## The Pattern

* Jordan’s diaries: the U.S. helped build Stalin’s bomb.
* Sutton’s histories: Wall Street built the Soviet economy.
* Carson’s analysis: capitalism runs on subsidies and violence.
* Webb’s investigations: 21st-century intelligence, finance, and tech form a single network.
* Chomsky: U.S.–Israel policy is about domination, not defense.
* Brzezinski and Kissinger: global primacy requires crisis and control.
* Kojima’s *Metal Gear*: culture reflects the machinery of manufactured enemies.



## Conclusion: Breaking the Machine

The Cold War was a business deal. The War on Terror is, too. The enemy is never communism or terrorism — it is empire itself, feeding on crisis.

Unless we strip away the illusion, we remain like Snake in *Metal Gear Solid 2*, trapped in a simulation of war designed to condition obedience. The challenge is not just to expose the collusion, but to refuse its logic.

As Carson reminds us, the invisible hand is a fist.

And as Chomsky has said for decades, democracy is only real when people dismantle the manufactured consent machine.
