Ponzi Fascism: The Handbook


Thirty years ago no one would have believed that China, Russia and the U.S. would all converge on the same "model":

Concentration of wealth and power in the hands of an ever-dwindling minority
Token Democracy
Perpetual self-fulfilling war on 'terror" aka. contrived fear
"Extend and pretend" pseudo-economic recovery program
Carpet-bombing diplomacy
Direct support of the world's most corrupt dictators and authoritarian regimes 
Lies of omission
Rewriting of history
Massive police/surveillance apparatus
Media control/propaganda
Hubris and fabricated nationalism
Xenophobia
Constant external intervention
Continual resource grab
Slavery of the populace

And a comatose general population that just let it happen. Lenin said it only takes 10% to foment revolution, but no one 100 years ago predicted the global corporatized Idiocracy. 

Except Orwell.
