No, because the focusing on building up economic self-sufficiency, autarky if you will, should bring with it a more nationalist focused political populace, wich by definition would be less socialist. Maybe we have seen peak socialism.

Yes, and they certainly glorify their military and veterans in the US. But I take the point, you wouldn't see US society as a preponderantly military society the way others were in the past.

She? You mean "He", surely.

Tanks didn't roam the streets of fascist Italy or Nazi Germany prior to war. And you certainly have the military embedded in civil life in the US.

Trump weighed in on his Truth Social platform by sharing an image of the judge found on the judge’s Facebook page by the rightwing blogger Libs of TikTok, which showed Dugan on the bench wearing a KN95 face mask and displaying the Ukrainian national symbol of a trident. Hannah Dugan has been charged with the federal offenses of obstructing a proceeding and concealing an individual to prevent arrest, according to documents filed with the court ttps://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/25/judge-hannah-dugan-milwaukee-arrest

Exactly. Borscht.

if we define militarism as the "the belief or the desire of a government or a people that a state should maintain a strong military capability and to use it aggressively to expand national interests and/or values", then the interesting question is if the USA is a militarist state or not. The US certainly desires a strong military, as evidenced by its largst military spending and most powerful military, and the people in the US desires this too, eulogise their military and celebrate veterans. Can one therefore describe the USA as militarist?

Phuket is going to the dogs. Got to be a Ukrainian or Russian.

There is no doubt that Trump is nationalist. But not every nationalist is a fascist or Nazi. Protectionism like tariffs is neither fascist nor Nazi, but used by all regimes historically.

It is absolutely ludicrous to use the label of fascist or nazi against someone like Elon Musk or Donald Trump, who are neither. However, they do oppose leftist socialism, so that is why they get tarred with the fascist and nazi labels, because the left's traditional enemy has been fascism and nazism, they reflectlively label all their enemies as fascists and nazis. Very lazy and unoriginal, intellectually bankrupt you could say. But Trump's movements is neither fascist nor National socialist, far from it. It's more of an economic and nationalist movement with strong support for Israel. Quite different to fascism and Nazism, though also opposed to leftist socialism

That's valid, fascism is nationalist and socialism is internationalist and knows no country. As we are now about to enter an age of nationalism, as we exit globalism, it would be only natural that fascism makes a strong comeback.

The historian Ernst Nolte was the world's greatest authority on fascism: "Fascism is anti-Marxism which seeks to destroy the enemy by the evolvement of a radically opposed and yet related ideology and by the use of almost identical and yet typically modified methods, always, however within the unyielding framework of national self-assertion and autonomy." Fascism is a response movement against socialism. No socialism, no fascism.

I said very clearly that little is recycled at the moment. That is why the upside of doing it so great of course. with millions of devices that contain rare earths.

Lies.

I didn't. You didn't read the reply properly.

China has already blocked export of graphite since 2020. The US has a large scale rare earths site in Mountain Pass, Callifornia. The US has sponsored Australian exploitation of rare earths in Africa. In 2022, the latest year available, the world discarded e-waste containing 31 million metric tons of metals, 17 million tons of plastics, and 14 million tons of minerals, glass, and other reusable materials. But only an estimated 19 million tons was recycled—mainly “metals like iron which is present in high quantities and has high recycling rates in almost all e-waste management routes,” the Global E-Waste Monitor, a partnership between the International Telecommunication Union and the United Nations, reports. The United States throws away nearly 7 million tons of e-waste each year, and as elsewhere, only the easiest parts, such as iron, are recycled. That’s doubly wasteful because discarded gadgets often end up in landfills, where they can poison soil and water—and because they contain the very rare-earth metals that are so desperately needed in new electronic gadgets. https://foreignpolicy.com/2025/04/08/trump-ukraine-rare-earths-recycling/?utm_content=gifting&tpcc=gifting_article&gifting_article=dHJ1bXAtdWtyYWluZS1yYXJlLWVhcnRocy1yZWN5Y2xpbmc=&pid=CW941515 With a bit of American ingenuity the US can overcome the rare earths problem. Of course now very little is recycled, but that's the whole point, the potential is there to increase it massively.

No need, the US has one of the largest, richtest domestic markets in the world. The US can recycle rare earths. It's not a huge problem.

Definitely, I got a superhot Mynamar lass in Maesot. These Burma girls are highly attractive.

Not a lie at all, many of Ukraine's military are ultra-nationalist, rightwing neo-fascists.

I'll take your word for it.

Yes , plus those bar girls are rough looking older women. I've never seen a good looking bargirl. Though admittedly my exptertise in this area is very limited.

Manufacturing will increase dramatically, and the hope is that this will compensate somewhat for the reduced consumer spending due to higher prices.

He is a Peacemaker. If it wasn't for him there would be no chance of peace in Ukraine. Thanks to him it's a possibility.Ukraine has to concede territory obviously, as they're losing on the battlefield.

That's exactly why I move vigorously during sex. I don't let her sit on top and just lie there. Not for long anyway.

Yes, it's fortunate the Sadhguru is so popular now, I saw even Theo Von interviewed him. He's the real deal. Actual insights like he offers are rare to find.
