Well, the two of you were discussing current events. I mean her central theory was that many modern problems originate because there were no consequences for the decisionmakers of Iraq war and financial crisis of 2008. Not breaking. But the context was Minnesota and Greenland. That was breaking. Speaking of the financial crisis. I have come to the conclusion that the democratic party won't be fixed until people acknowledge that it was Bill Clinton that caused it and that Obama failed to adequately respond to it. Obama lost me when he appointed Tim Geithner to Treasury. I love to rant about Reagan, but Clinton did a lot of damage too.
I think there’s a lot to learn about these financial crises, and also the compounding consequences of not demanding accountability for the civil war, Jim Crow, the American Nazis of the 30s, McCarthy(ism), Nixon, GWOT, J6, Epstein and everything else in between. I don’t know if you watched or listened to my convo with Zev Shalev, but it is fascinating and deeply painful to read about the financial criminal network Epstein was a leader of.
If you want to go back, they tried to remove FDR and replace him with a military dictatorship and no one went to jail. I think I heard the conversation with Zev Shalev. But my brain doesn't retain things the way it used to. The name is familiar. There won't be consequences. The question is whether there will be democracy. Very few authoritarians have created structures that outlive them and the ones that did were in power for a long time.
I'm behind because I was away last week. Interesting discussion as usual.
Thanks for watching. Not much of what I do is breaking news.
