Pretty much every day I see conservatives desperately trying to blame those guys for everything going wrong in their putrid way of life and frankly I don’t really get it. You can’t even look them up reliably because every article on the subject is deepfried in paranoid Mccarthy style doomsday talk. I will admit that that particular group comes off as a bit ominous but all the NWO shit is the same deflective nonsense it’s always been: This pathological need for a villain to make all the complex problems facing our society make sense. If it’s not Klaus Schwab, it’s Soros, or Clinton or lizard people.

So yeah, what do actual socialists think of all this? And please spare no detail, I’m in the mood to read.

    Yuval Noah Harari

    I was actually gifted a book of his some years back, never got to it. Is he any good?

    Cons and Fascists hate them because they’re (((globalists))) (Soros is Jewish)

    Pretty sure I’ve seen a phrase “Zionist controlled WEF” somewhere like the ostensibly socialist subreddits

      The book was ‘Sapiens’ it kept me interested through most of it, though I did feel a little weird when he said “Communism is a religion” and “economic systems don’t matter, what really matters is how we are going to change the human race through genetic modification and computer chips” I also think, at this point, it was kinda weird when he said that all ideologies are fundamentally humanist, Fascism wants humanity to be a master race, liberalism says all humans are equal, and I forget what he said about communism (probably bad), which ignores that malthusians like an-prims see humanity as evil and should be decreased (btw WEF is kinda Malthusian, but not in that exact way).

        I tried reading that book but quit after a few chapters because the author insisted that LLCs are treated like people in law because people have come together to collectively imagine corporations as people and I couldn’t go on after that.
