A time of monsters

 

The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.” - Antonio Gramsci

Many believe that Donal Trump’s USA is unique, but not so. He’s symptomatic of a political and economic system that stretches from the US to Netanyahu’s Israel via a UK allowing hunger strikers to die.

This system is one where the world's richest 1% own more wealth than the bottom 95% of the population combined with the wealth of the top 1% reaching a record $52 trillion by late 2025. (Oxfam)

This level of explotation can only be sustained with the consent of the many. When that breaks down it is time for armed thugs to patrol the streets, to kill, maim and strike fear into the subjected.

90 years ago that was the SA (brownshirts) in Germany. Today it is ICE (polo shirts and masks) in the USA.

Yes it is a “time of monsters”, but the new world has started the “struggle to be born”.
