I’m orthodox Marxist… finally someone acknowledge what I have always said, nice!

Is still annoying to see how they continuosly run that story of “throwing people” to make gains… but even then, they know ukraine is lost.

Lot of people who don’t care about reality and mild their minds around propaganda believes that. In fact, trump has never said (more than macron) that US would quit/dispose/whatever NATO (as if he could do it, even willing it). What he did was to ask for Europe to put more money on the table…, which since at least one year they already did (he was asking for 2% Europe PBI, he has that and more)

heh… I started left and remained left.
I’m on my fifties now so I think I’m safe ;)

lol

very much this. there are plenty of studies that shows a direct correlation between icreasing economic difficulties and birth rate fall in europe (and is super evident for example in france where the dismantle of the wellfare state last 15 years drop birth rate from 2.8 to 1.9 in same amount of years, process being more strong during the “Macron era”).
Of course this does not applies to a lot of countries that are not in good economic shape (in the global south) because in those countries neoliberalism and the massive individualisation of society is just present in the upper statements, while the popular classes still rely in its community, also for reproduction.
