Politics & Economy

1. Cool Interview of Jerry Perez of the People’s Party (Warning: badly handled video volume)

Volume warning: the interviewer 2 to 3 times louder than the interviewee. Do what you can to protect your eardrums (which the youtuber unfortunately did not do). Anyway, Jerry Perez gives good insights on the current situation and what the people must do to rescue themselves from our criminal oligarchy.

2. Serfs vs King Bezos

IMHO, nobody should possess an $80 million mansion in NY, another big mansion in DC, a $165 million mansion in Beverly Hills and so on. In fact, not even a single such mansion should exist and countless regular homes left empty and locked while countless people are homeless and huge numbers more about to be evicted, plus spreading hunger, pandemic illness, denial of healthcare, denial of paid jobs, denial of proper education, denial of any solutions for horrific problems. Ultimately denial of proper human life! How exactly is today’s world different from the aristocratic dungheap our nation’s founders revolted against?

3. Lengthy Video Pointing out Fake Green Activism (Green Washing of Oligarchs)

It’s a bit lengthy squabble piled up with unknown names, but the point made correctly is that the capitalist oligarchy is trying to move its people-robing system from one planet destruction to another planet destruction in order to maintain its power and profits while pretending to care about our planet. (for those who don’t know, let me mention what is omitted in this video, namely that methods and technologies exist to handle all planetary crises properly (for example their exist better alternatives to these lithium batteries, in fact to batteries period))

CENSORSHIP From Billionaire-Backed Professional Activists! ~ The Jimmy Dore Show (Oct 4, 2020)

4. Andrew Yang & Saagar Enjeti Discussing Corporatism and Corrupt Politics and Media

Surprisingly insightful discussion. If only Yang would take his insights to broaden his agenda and add Medicare for All at the top.

5. The Shift: Capitalism is Financial Feudalism

Yanis Varoufakis explaining the historic shift (how ‘elite’ power based on status and force shifted to being based on money) and how capitalism today works with money out of thin air making the rich rich and the rest of us poor. (after the first part of this very long speech things get less interesting, in part because the speech happened before our current corona crisis)

6. CIA Spying on Americans & Attempting Murder of Journalists

Trying to poison or kidnap Julian Assange, spying on American journalists who interviewed him (when the CIA is not legally allowed to spy on Americans). Also: Wikipedia’s political corruption.

7. Why Only 1/2 Americans Vote!

The Reason HALF of Americans DON’T Vote! ~ The Jimmy Dore Show (Oct 7, 2020)

8. Bad Biden (on Green New Deal)

… and fracking:

BIDEN Won’t Listen To The Scientists! ~ The Jimmy Dore Show (Oct 7, 2020)

9. Sad Bernie (Microsocopic Audience for a Rally Attempt for Corrupt Biden)

He alone, with just a tiny handful of people coming by to watch (maybe they are just the stage technicians waiting until they have to remove the equipment again?):

10. Voter Shaming Well Criticized

by Jimmy Dore:

SCOTUS Too Powerful? ~ The World According to Jesse (RT America, Sep 25, 2020)

12. Saving Soil to Save the Climate

In the second half. The first half addresses our unjust legal system protecting murderous police hit men via secret court trials and controlled juries.

13. Kangaroo Court on Assange: Decisions made before the Hearings

14. People’s Party: This Week’s National Call

Current updates of chores being done, the structure getting built further. A really passionate speech comes in the last third part by a former “Democratic” Party loyalist, with its introduction by Nick Brana starting at 1:01:06!

15. Cob (Adobe) Low Cost, Durable, and Apparently NOT Only in Deserts

Building with Cob – A Natural & Affordable Way to Build a House ~ Exploring Alternatives (Oct 1, 2017)

One problem, as so often: Local regulations that may not allow them.

16. Some more info on Cob (Adobe)

The walls absorbing and releasing humidity, and no mold issues.

17. Mixing Cob with a Cement Mixer

… instead of hands and feet. Uncler, though, if this only works with sifted dried clay or also natural clay found on one’s ground.

Another video about this:

More insight:

This clay is locally dug out and happens to be dry and powdery (in a dry climate region apparently again):

20. Resurrecting Proper Human Life by Building Away from the Financial Housing Trap

A point well made about 10 minutes in. The main reason why I have lately added the home building topic to my essentially political blog. It’s a look at direct action that can help us recover our lives (when party politics has become utterly corrupted and bought up by a rich oligarchy) and escape the capitalist chains.
