In capitalist electoralism, all “sides” are subsumed by the needs of capital. Imperialism and neo-colonialism have stripped the last bit of fat from the corpse of the global south, and now the psychopaths turn their gaze homeward and begin to cannibalize their own.

But they do it with British understatement, that's why nobody around the world notices it. It's not as shrill, when people sipping tea say things like "Jolly, they invited our neighbours to the conci-tuffy-encampment. I reckon we won't having them over for tea that soon. My, my!"

Same notification that Prince Andrew has to give; which is to say none as neither has been convicted of abusing minors, yet.

Can we stop calling him Trump, and just refer to him as Epstein's friend.

I wonder if he'll come back with a fake English accent. An example would be his dissing Gavin Newsome. "You have a low I.Q., governor".
