Fridman is a clown like Orban and Fico. “I have a dream of peace,” look at me, all I want is for everyone to hug. Nonsense. His one and only goal is to whitewash Russian aggression and atrocities.
Not once is it discussed that the war could end today if Russia simply withdrew?
Nah, I ain’t buying Fridman’s centrist posturing because it’s simply a lie.
Nicely done. That’s considerate as hell. I appreciate it.
Fucking right. Perfectly stated. Fico is a shit, and clearly so were his predecessors that they thought they could luxuriate in cheap Russian gas forever. What garbage policy-making is this?
I’m actually kinda surprised the number isn’t higher by this point. I suppose late stage capitalism feels even later stage in my mind. Fucking hell.
Sounds great to me. Nation states have had well over a century to move us forward, and it’s been a miserable failure. ‘Great’ leaders won’t save us. Kill your heroes. Corporations won’t save us because they’re too busy eating our lunch. Everyone needs to realize that institutions don’t work for us, and never did.
The planet burns, yet people all over the world are fiercely debating which one is superior: chocolate or vanilla Soylent Green.
Yes, that’s it. As I’ve told friends on several occasions, you know why I encrypt my online life and guard my privacy as if, you know, freedom depended on privacy? Because fuck them, that’s why.
It takes my time and effort, but I just can’t let the bastards win just that little bit more easily. All cops and corps are bastards (ACAB).
Exactly. Now to click the “copy text” button and keep your fine words handy for my next convo with a friend who thinks life with Facebook and Google is grand.
Let’s keep it simple. Don’t engage with fascists. Either fight them or ignore them, depending on the circumstances, but to shake their hands with and platform them is folly. Death to dictators.
Death to union busting and privacy invading corporations.
Oh joy, more money for roads. More state funds for drivers. The war on cars continues unabated.
He’s probably heard the same sorry bullshit that by this point he just stomps it.
That being said, I’m also impressed at how well he massages the people he’s speaking with. I mean, he must think that Fridman, Trump, and Musk are asshats, yet he still manages not to flip the table during this interview.
