#WolffBites: Planned public execution at Fort Hood would NOT be new. Over last year at least 238 boat people in the Caribbean have been publicly executed. Public execution is just coding home.

@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Capitalism made the already richest man in the world - Musk - much richer (a trillionaire). Musk uses that money to buy US elections so officials will preserve the capitalism that enriched him. That is the opposite of democracy.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: As people increasingly ask "how can we do better than capitalism," the Nobel prize goes yet again to economists who work to keep capitalism by "managing" its profound instabilities better.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: US consumer confidence just fell (in September) to its lowest level since the depths of the Covid-19 pandemic. Meanwhile Trump and Bessent repeat, like robots, how "great" the economy is.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: As yes-women clap for him, he wants a new name (either Trump or America) for the Atlantic or Pacific oceans. As the actual US empire and its leader decline, growing their names becomes more urgent and desperate.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: French protests grow against cuts in gov't spending on education and other social needs. Now Belgian students join too. Stupid gov'ts' first response: police repression. All Europe edges closer to social explosion. And the US?
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: On October 7: when "they had no choice" is said about Israel's wars against Palestinians, the aim is to end debate about the choices that were and are always there. The fear is about where debate can lead.

@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Stock market hits record highs. When empires decline, the top 10% keep squeezing wealth despite decline. They push the rising costs of decline onto the masses (think DOGE). The richest 10% own 80% of US stock markets. The masses merely watch.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: France's students raise crucial school issues. Macron ignores them. Students demand change. Macron ignores them. They protest publicly. Macron's police try to intimidate students. Street fires emerge. Of course, Macron blames students and "condemns violence."

@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: France's interest rates rise, risk recession, infect other Europe. Desperate Macron takes money from education to pay creditors. Students + French people say no.

@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: After Macron's gov't saved money on education to spend more on big business, military goods, and anti-Russian hysteria.
@profwolff.bsky.social#Wolffbites: To cruelty add incompetence. Tennessee's botched its killing of a woman arrested at 19 (after a life of sexual abuse) and jailed until now (she is 50).

@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Richest 0.1% of Americans (330,000) own 15% of US wealth or an average $200 million per household. Extreme US inequality became more extreme over last 10 years. The rich fund Trump.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: As of 56 days before the mid-term election, $11.6 billion has been spent ("donated") to buy political parties, candidates, and votes. That's why politicians serve their donors first and everyone else a distant second.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Trump hits Europe with tariffs and demands for tribute (investments in US). Euro leaders cave plus provide bases for thousands of US bombing raids on Iran since February 2026. Slavish Euro leaders serve US masters.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Axios practices self-delusion. Its headline says US is world's best growth economy. For proof it compares with Europe, Canada and Japan. It omits China (the most important US competitor). .
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: NY Senator Schumer, going down with voters like most other centrists. The center cannot hold and takes its mascots down with it. Unsolved real problems kicked down the road eventually provoke most voters to chose the Mamdanis over the Cuomos.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: To a UN General Assembly - an institution founded in reaction against the violent horrors of World War 2, - Trump threatened to "annihilate" a fellow UN member nation of 92 million people. No excuse, not even senility.
@profwolff.bsky.social#WolffBites: Batista's ghost returns as modern-day gusanos drool over snatching Cuba's "assets."
