PLUTOCRATS

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—Trump is not a populist champion of the little guy, nor a closet Nazi working to establish a white ethnostate, nor a Kremlin asset, but is in fact nothing other than a miserable rich man from a miserable rich family who did what it takes to get elected to the presidency of a racist, corrupt, bloodthirsty empire and remain there for a full term. Everything else is narrative which is wholly divorced from reality.

MATT JJ EHRET—The patriarch of the same Bush dynasty that gave the world two disastrous American presidents (and nearly a third had Donald Trump not annihilated Jeb at the last minute in 2016) made a name for himself funding Nazism alongside his business partners Averell Harriman and Averell’s younger brother E. Roland Harriman (the latter who was to recruit Prescott to Skull and Bones while both studying at Yale).

ERIC SCHECHTER—Self-destruction was not fast enough for the plutocrats. Now they are using the pandemic as a way to speed things up. Capitalism always was a balancing act, and now I think they are losing their balance. With mass layoffs and insufficient unemployment checks, they are rapidly, greatly increasing the numbers of the poor. I think this makes inevitable EITHER A REVOLUTION OR THE COLLAPSE OF OUR CIVILIZATION, perhaps by 2022.

PHILIP A. FARRUGGIO—The guys who come by and pick up our trash and recyclables each week; The man or woman who wipes the ass of our relative in the nursing home and bathes them; the cleaning ladies who breath in the dust and allergens in our offices or homes, or those aforementioned paramedics who carry us to the emergency rooms… THEY are more vital than those highly paid minions who parrot either of the Two Party/One Party propaganda on air each day.

LEE FANG—AMERICANS FOR PROSPERITY, the pro-corporate pressure group founded and funded by billionaire industrialist Charles Koch, wants employees to return to work despite desperate pleas from public health officials that people should stay home as much as possible to help contain the spread of the coronavirus. 
As states began to order nonessential businesses to shut down last week, AFP released a statement calling for all businesses to remain open.
