People in the West got scared of their own shadows starting with 9/11, and for the life of me I don’t understand why.
Appreciate your thoughtful call.
One of the things that drives me crazy is when various conservatives like Trump are scapegoated as the root of all of our problems, they're not.
They are the symptom, conservatism is the natural evolution of a collapsing society.
However, I would argue that Trump isn't Conservative in the traditional sense.
Fascism is the evolutionary step where wealth can no longer hold on to power through fiscal arguments, and so division and scapegoating becomes a desperate tool instead.
But i catch your drift and agree.
Once we get past toying with fake dire wolves and reanimate Durkheim, he's not going to enjoy updating his conclusions. Marx and Webber on the other hand...
Also reminded me of a friend I had when living in Fife 100 yrs ago who I thought was Irish. She'd grown up nr Oban and could only get Irish TV reception. I now note with interest how much US culture in all its forms has insinuated into UK.
You applied your knowledge to ongoing events rather than looking back with hindsight, telling us what had happened long after we seen the consequences for ourselves.
1) Johnson gov was to the right of Le pen
2) starmer gov is enacting Tory right wing policies policies on benefits , migration , the eu
3) reform are riding high in the polls
The French rejected le Pen numerous times
Sure RN are a issue here but England has an equal and possibly greater threat from the right
This if ignored will explode and I feel reform r more likely to form a next gov than RN
You and Irish women like you are why I constantly tell my daughters that Irish women are a cut above most others.
You should have your own chat show 😀
