French students lead against gov't cuts in public services (like schools), healthcare, pensions. Instead, Macron uses tax revenues to aid big business, rearm, fund Ukraine's war, save the rich from paying fair taxes. What "Alors enfants de la patrie" really means.
#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.
#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.
#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."

Macron in crisis: cannot pay debts, fund Ukraine, rearm against Russia. The political center collapses.
#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.

Farewell my friend
Thank you @robinsonerhardt.bsky.social for having me
French high school students fight back (900 demonstrations against deteriorating French school conditions). France's public protects its interests.
#WolffBites: After Macron's gov't saved money on education to spend more on big business, military goods, and anti-Russian hysteria.
Not enough punishment? Of Europe's 44 nations only Belarus has executed in the 21st century (1 person). Shame!
#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).

See Amy Goodman in Berlin on Oct. 1 at a special screening of "Steal This Story, Please!"
#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.

#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.
