2026-02-14Trump, Musk and now UK billionaire Jim Ratcliffe – they are the enablers, making racists feel great again (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/feb/13/donald-trump-elon-musk-jim-ratcliffe-making-racists-feel-great-again)
It lacks the elegance of "greed is good", but as a distillation of the spirit of the age, it's right up there. "I feel liberated," a top banker told the Financial Times shortly after Donald Trump's victory in the 2024 US presidential election. "We can say 'retard' and 'pussy' without the fear of getting cancelled ... it's a new dawn."
With high profile billionaires filling their social media posts with white supremacy philosophy and treating women either like whores (Trump) or baby factories (Musk), it should be no surprise that the hoi polloi follow suit. Fascists need racism to justify enslaving populations and treating them as sub human servants of the Master Race. The next step is genocide through starvation, already underway in Africa, Gaza and Cuba.

The poor are rooted in place. The rich are mobile. Their freedom to drift rests on others' confinement. When climate devastation drives displacement, the crisis is rebranded as immigration failure, and coercive arms of the state are unleashed without limits.
