Every day we get closer to an Orwellian society. The United Kingdom may already be one.

    No. This is a very naive & dated way of thinking about the world of today. We don’t really have distinct borders distinguishing politicians at that level.

    It’s more accurate to say the Davos group is ruling all western nations. What looks like separate world leaders and parties is actually one world-spanning organization of those with power. And what’s worse, they’re all Nazis and technocrats.

    The Nazis learned from WW2. If you invade a country, the people fight back. If you groom and install/bribe your own people into leadership positions, the people just let it happen.

      big capitalists rule western nations (and the third world, through neocolonialism).

      i don’t think they are relying on a formal, yearly summit to do so though.

          being independent is better, but oligarchs are a real problem aren’t they. we really gotta figure this shit out.
