Westerners would rather see millions of themselves die in a third world war than entertain the idea that billionaires might not have their best interests at heart.
one would think zero-growth would mean zero change in material conditions, how come, economy man, it means cuts in social spending and austerity
This. After 13 years of right wing government in the UK, people are wanting to vote for even more right wing parties, blaming trans people, migrants, and the poor, all whilst saying rich folk have worked hard for what they have. It’s crap.
The wave never ended in pastapizzaland, we had one (1) vaguely succdem government but then covid happened and libs fearmongered about their classic budgeting and "who is going to pay for this" bullshit only because the govt did the sensible decision to close everything and quarantine right after covid started (so they were still better than the US😩) then the most hated politician in Italy (a lib ghoul, Renzi) single-handedly made the government fall, and we had a year and a half of "emergency government" with the old EU central bank director as an unelected half-president (you can imagine the austerity, lol)
aside from these 2 short interruptions, we only had right-wing govts since 2017. At least the old "lega" right-wing govt was funnier than this shitshow.
It will just make the collapse of western Europe quicker, which is not bad 😉
