Jonathan Pie proves that the post-capitalist civil war still goes on

 
As we mentioned in the beginning of 2021, since at least July 2019, we were supporting the idea that Brexit is primarily the result of a capitalist civil war. Very few people (mostly in social media), were eager to accept this theory, while several were even mocking it as some kind of crazy conspiracy theory. 
 
What puzzled us most, was the fact that even people from the global real Left were completely ignoring the capitalist-civil-war factor in Brexit equation during public debates. Many of them were seeing Brexit mainly as an angry response by the UK working class against the political and financial elites. We thought it would take forever to find someone from the Left to support the capitalist-civil-war theory.
 
We need to understand that this civil war between the capitalist factions does not come out of any substantially different ideological or political approach. Essentially, it's only a tough bargain. Capitalists just pick sides to negotiate terms and secure their position in the post-capitalist era, which already looks like a kind of 21st century corporate feudalism

We also mentioned in 2019 that the two major events as a result of this war, were the rise of Donald Trump and the Brexit vote. Both in the motherlands of neoliberalism.

What we see now in the United States with Trump, is a counter-attack by the part of the American capital against the globalist faction. The faction that is primarily consisted by the liberal plutocracy. Therefore, as the capitalist class splits, the capitalists around Trump are now taking with them the most conservative part of the American society, as they need electoral power. They have the money and their own media network. Their first big victory was Trump in the US presidency and this explains why the liberal media attack him so hard and so frequently.

On the other side of the Atlantic, we have a similar situation. The United Kingdom is probably now the most crucial field of the endo-capitalist war and the anti-globalist capitalists marked a first big victory through the outcome of the Brexit referendum.
 
We now have new evidence that everything we wrote was right. Not only the war continues in the post-capitalist era, but the post-capitalist oligarchs seem to consider the Anglo-American sphere as the most critical interconnected field for the outcome of the war.  

The liberal plutocrats found an unexpected ally in their effort to beat their rivals: Covid-19. Trump's disastrous response against the pandemic waves cost him the second term and spread waves of relief to the ranks of the liberal faction. Now, the liberal plutocrats want to get rid off Boris Johnson. The UK branch of the liberal faction found the opportunity to attack him hard on the occasion of the recent Covid-19-parties scandal.
 
And the liberal propaganda front-line weapon in the US, The New York Times, decided to assist, by recruiting the British comedian Tom Walker. Walker gained significant popularity by portraying the fictional broadcast reporter Jonathan Pie, in his YouTube videos. As we read from the NY Times recent online post:
 
                              ... when evidence began to emerge in late November that the staff at 10 Downing Street, the prime minister’s residence and the central office of government, had held a Christmas party during lockdown, people were angry, to say the least. But then, after a steady stream of breaking news made clear it was not one or two but at least 16 parties, several of which Prime Minister Boris Johnson knew about and in some cases apparently attended, that anger transformed into fury. On Thursday, four members of his staff resigned, with one citing his reference to a debunked conspiracy theory while speaking to Parliament as a contributing factor. To explain exactly why the British are so enraged with Mr. Johnson, who was already infamous for his troubled relationship with the truth, we produced a satirical Opinion Video with Jonathan Pie, a fictional broadcast reporter created and performed on YouTube by the comedian Tom Walker, whose acerbic, satirical monologues have gone viral.


Almost everything Pie says in the video is true, except it could also easily fit to the liberal class too. It's rather laughable that the liberal elites pretend that all the lies and disaster started with Trump and Johnson. They want us to forget the big lies that led to devastating wars which the liberal machine supported tooth and nail. They want us to forget that nothing changed since the financial crisis of 2008, and that under the liberal Obama, the rich became more powerful. And even today, Biden did nothing so far to help the US working class because he doesn't want to harm the interests of his super-rich liberal masters.
 
Also, there are signs in the UK that the liberal faction silently attempts to restore Blairism in full power. 
 
In the post-capitalist neo-feudal era, the liberal plutocrats want to mark a decisive victory against their rivals, win the civil war, and establish an absolute global-scale domination.

Zionists pushed Trump into the war with Iran but this was not the primary reason for this catastrophic decision

by system failure     It is widely reported by various analysts that Trump's catastrophic decision to start a war with Iran, came as a result of the pressure from Netanyahu regime and the Zionist lobby in US. While we can't ignore the strong influence of the Zionist factor on Trump and its significant role on dragging him into such a catastrophe, this was probably not the primary reason for the latest US-Iran war.  One has to look first at Venezuela and the unprecedented and rather bizarre operation there to remove Nicolas Maduro from power, in order to understand the deeper reasoning behind such a risky decision by Trump against Iran. The uniqueness of the operation in Venezuela by the US imperialist beast, has to do not only with the blatant violation of international law with almost zero pretexts, but also with the fact that the rest of the Maduro administration was left untouched and permitted to remain in power. This shows that the primary goal of this operation was ...

Trump CAVES On Uranium & Ballistic Missiles!

The Jimmy Dore Show   Jimmy Dore and Glenn Greenwald argue that President Trump is engaging in a stark retreat from earlier hardline positions on Iran by signaling acceptance of both Iranian uranium enrichment for civilian energy purposes and allowing Iran to possess conventional ballistic missiles. The two contend that these comments amount to major concessions, with Jimmy describing them as “another big win for Iran” and evidence that the administration has abandoned key objectives it previously promoted. Greenwald cites the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, arguing that Iran has the same right as other signatory nations to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes and notes that previous agreements imposed unusually strict inspections on Iran’s program. The segment emphasizes Trump’s remarks that “it’s a little bit unfair for them not to have some” ballistic missiles and that restrictions on civilian nuclear energy require “a little common sense.”

How Western societies lost their faith in Vision

Why people don't rise up massively today? Why there are no real revolutions? How we tolerate all things that have been imposed to us? These questions come up in people's minds more and more often today in Greece and abroad, due to the economic crisis. Some theories are circulated as an answer, among these, explanations which include, for example, the psychosynthesis of modern Greeks, but the truth is that there is something more fundamental behind this passive behaviour and concerns not only Greece, but the entire Western world. by system failure Prior to the beginning of the 20th century, Friedrich Nietzsche declares God's death and Western world will put all its hopes in science. Laplace's Determinism leads to the almighty man, who through science, can find all the answers for the world. Technology, which naturally comes from scientific discoveries, promises prosperity and a better life for the majority. Science becomes the central "pylon...

Congress Members Run & REFUSE To Say They’re America First!

The Jimmy Dore Show   Jimmy Dore and his live panel show guests react to a video of a reporter asking members of Congress whether they care more about the American people or Israel, repeatedly getting stonewalling or obfuscation from the lawmakers who appeared unwilling to give a direct answer. The discussion focuses on the influence of pro-Israel lobbying groups in U.S. politics, with the panel claiming that organizations such as AIPAC exert significant pressure on elected officials through campaign spending and primary challenges.    Dore highlights the one lawmaker who plainly answered, "American people," while mocking others who responded that the interests of the United States and Israel are inseparable, including one who said, "They're equal. We are tied together as one." The segment ultimately argues that there is a growing disconnect between the many Americans who are increasingly questioning U.S.-Israel policy and members of Congress who bend over backw...

Already happens: Capitalism destroys human labor force and goes to the next phase

by system failure Connecting the dots one can discover the most nightmarish scenarios. Destructive capitalism's next phase is the total substitution of the human labor force with robotic machines, or in other words, the hyper-automatization. There is a process taking place right now, and no one (or nearly no one) knows what would happen after its completion. The true picture behind unemployment From a latest article in PressTV: “ Did you know that there are nearly 102 million working age Americans that do not have a job right now? And 20 percent of all families in the United States do not have a single member that is employed. So how in the world can the government claim that the unemployment rate has “dropped” to '6.3 percent'?” “ Well, it all comes down to how you define who is 'unemployed'. For example, last month the government moved another 988,000 Americans into the 'not in the labor force' category.” http://www.presstv.ir/detail...
