With increasing corporate interference and influence over the democratic process, we move each year, closer to fascism.
Fascism cant exist without a big powerful central state.
Last month the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development documented a sharp drop in public support for democracy in the “new E.U.” countries, the nations that joined the European Union after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Not surprisingly, the loss of faith in democracy has been greatest in the countries that suffered the deepest economic slumps.
We dont live in a democracy. Democracy isnt the process of ticking a box once every 5 years. Much of EUrope doesnt even get that.
Democracy comes from Demos, People, and Kratos, Power.
What power do people wield when their elected parliaments are bound by EU law? When their leaders are sacked by EU functionaires, and EU approved but unelected "Technocrats" put in their place?
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
The map is an illustration of Prime Minister Viktor Orban's "intention to overcome the Treaty of Trianon" at the end of the first World War, when Hungary was forced to give up Slovakia and parts of Romania and Serbia,
Not exatcly, Trianon ended a continuation war, Hungary disarmed, declared war imoral and became a pacifist state, its neighbours promptly began annexing town after town after town, first, to "free" none Hungarians from Hungarian rule, but soon, started asset grabbing, evebntual 34% of the Hungarian populace had been seperated from Hungary.
I am quite aware of the one-world crowd, but they have made very little process in the last fifty years.

Read some solid marxism... capitalism is programmed to its transformation or destruction
Rather big leap there, Marx was an idiot, a liar, and a fool. Not a genious savant who saw the world for what it really was....
The people, who in Mesopotamia, Greece, Asia Minor and elsewhere, destroyed the forests to obtain cultivable land,
Except of course they didnt.
Much of the middle east was devestated as a deliberate act by Berbers to cripple the crusades eastward march.
which is no bad thing if you ask me. But I don't think the "village market" is Capitalism: it's just Trade. Capitalism is more like the belief that to make money out of having money (or some other resource that counts as "Capital", such as a building), is the correct thing to do.
Capitalism is the acceptance that people will choose to use their capital in the way that they feel gives the greatest return.
i do generally follow the gaia type theory
South America used to have mega fauna, like the Elephants and Rhinos of Africa. One day, the central americas rose above the sea, the North American wolves charged south and ate them.
The idea that nature is "balanced" is a lie.
Its balanced until it isnt, and then it makes our changes look mild.
And as far as population goes - we've already had a massive population boom (in Europe) at the same time we chopped down most of the forests.
I read recently that the UK has more trees today than at any time for the last 1000 years.
I mean, it'd be great as fertiliser on the Plot but here in Yorkshire they're set to blow £2Bn on a new Potash mine while they're probably going to throw away, or contaminate, ash from biomass plants. It makes me f***ing livid,
It'll be waste, according to giovernment, and so must go to approved waste processors for disposal.
I remember being told of a project, A guy wanted to build a sort of ECO Barn I suppose, he wanted to dig into a small hillock, and use what he dug out to raise the rest, leaving him a barn, sheltered on three sides.
Building Control said it was illegal to dump "building waste".
