Not newz to Diners, but a dose of reality for greenies and goobermints who have Net Zero as policy and stubbornly hold onto a goal that cannot possibly be met short of a complete collapse of BAU.  As to whether this cheerleader's predictions for growth are accurate, this also seems unlikely given the economic headwinds on the horizon.  It does show how polarized the opinions are, which will likely lead to increased volatility in pricing with newz events.

Hang onto your hats, it looks like a wild ride on the way down the hill.

Only 10K views in three months.  That is OK, truth is not found on route 666.  The American main drag is uniform homogenized bullshit on both sides of the road.  Feel good stuff.    The main stream.

Enjoy independent media before it goes extinct.  When President Musk gets done with things, this is what independent media will sound like.

The apocalypse is already here.  If the video had said it a few more times, it only would have had 5K views in three months.  So it goes.  But Part 2 shows effective actions by people with the courage to make a fucking difference.

17K views in three weeks, much better.

How do you actually try to fight together without expecting, without demanding the other to become like you.  We need to show them that we are all going to work together for our shared goals and our shared vision.  And basically we're going to fight for our lives because that's what we're doing.  And so I think that it's really important to have a diversity of tactics, to understand really clearly what the state repression is going to be like

To expect it and to have long-term goals.  This is a generational fight.  So we need to start being more strategic around how we're going to be preventative, how we're going to occupy territories, how we're going to protect certain tracts of land and water and how we're going to act for a collective vision of what we want this world to look like.

Best with subtitles on.

This is a generational fight.

Well, that leaves all us geezers out then doesn't it? None of us are out protesting corporate logging practices are we? Voting for the wide range of Communist seeming political parties at the ballot? Chaining ourselves to entrance gates at oil refineries? I would say it has been a generational fight since the hippes and peace-love-dope corrupted an entire generation into runaway hopium and unrestricted growth and consumerism.

Sure, SOME of the hippy dippy types were worried about the planet, after all, the Great Dieoff claimed in 1970 was scheduled for the end of the 1980's and that had some folks pretty worried. My uncle is one of these hippy dippy types, back to earth, without the smoking wacky weed part anyway, he was a health nut, organic foods, etc etc. He wasn't the only one who ultimately decided he would save the word by being vegan.

So we need to start being more strategic around how we're going to be preventative, how we're going to occupy territories, how we're going to protect certain tracts of land and water and how we're going to act for a collective vision of what we want this world to look like.

I presume you mean the collective "we", as opposed to us permanently homebound or happily content in our net worth who aren't particularly interested in the physical act of...DOING....stuff? Lets face it, if buying a danish and coffee is an irritating part of a part time job in a retiree's life using a welding rig to solder pipeline valves shut is a pretty heavy financial inconvenience! Gas money, hotels, the welding rig, finding the right valve, food and hotels there and back, yikes!  Are you implying we know any old codgers willing to risk and trade the "happily content with BAU" part of our lives with legal fees and jail cells, all in the name of changing the world that gave us our high net worth? Seems a bit counter productive this late in life. I've got arthritis in a couple joints, some of this high energy stuff is painful nowadays!

And WHO'S collective vision? Hippy Dippys? With or without weed? Save the tree types? Throw out the bums, and elect new ones? (same as the old ones) The vision of a well heeled communist probably isn't anything like a 20 something working at Starbucks with no hope in life except handing out those danish and coffees to the well heeled old farts who he figures already stole his future...and BLAME them. So who is the "we", when the old geezers are the ones the energetic young want to see die. And then steal all their stuff.

Do you really thing they'll care about one's political affiliation as a good American Communist regardless of net worth before applying the basic premise of the same feelings that cost the "Let Them Eat Cake" lady her head? All they'll see are those cars K-Dog...and they will KNOW where to go to do a little..."personal rearrangement of wealth" in their spare time...when the going gets rough.

I admit to being slightly on the radical side of the isle.  I am not content with this shitshow.

There is radical, and then radical. You seem pretty straight up for a well heeled American Boomer, except for the political affiliation anyway. And being irritated at the status  quo is more the norm than not nowadays, the oligarches thrilled with it being a small fraction of the population and very small in number.

[K-Dog]

Some political affiliations are worse than others, that is for sure.

A year into Javier Milei's presidency, Argentina's poverty hits a new high.

My political affiliation is all dogs eat, not just some.

This is true. But the world changes. Once upon a time there was this thing called a "red Scare", and certain political parties were...discouraged....heavily.

Nowadays? Hell, no one even cares.

My political affiliation is all dogs eat, not just some.

Sounds reasonable....in America in 2022 like 20,500 people died of starvation. Sounds like most dogs get to eat in America. Like...nearly ALL dogs get to eat in America.

Remember in China, where they thought it was a good idea to starve like 30,000,000 of their folks to death back around 1959-1961? Me not being very political, but whatever brand of all dogs eat politics that is seems inferior to run of the mill capitalism!

I wish that were true.  And as long as you do not run up against operational security, it may be.  But if you do, that is a total red pill moment for you.

Musk and Trumpo should be careful and not fire to many Federal Employees.  Those are the people who get roped in for gang-stalking duty if an operation becomes compromised.  (overtime wages 4 sure)  Say you find out about an American troll farm behind Clusterfuck Nation, and start talking about it. That sort of thing.  People will be popping out of the woodwork to drive you crazy.  Or try to.

If you get indicted for something then I suppose a show of civility is shown by the FBI and other black suits.  But if you are just a Joe on their radar your life can become a living hell.  Then you find out about Fascism Lite.  Same great oppression, but it is not in your face.

You also don't want to be visited by men in Black Suits if you speak the Official Language of the FSoA with a Spanish accent.  Also watch out for men in Blue Uniforms if you are Driving While Black.  Not a good idea to pray to Allah either, stick to Jehovah, or better yet Jesus.   Do not come out in favor of a Palestinian state in your college newspaper.  Do not be poor or homeless.

Long as you just shop and watch Netflix, you'll be fine.
