Keeping Personal Hope in the Battle vs. Elites with a Military

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIkab3Gb-F4&t=31s)

Let’s discuss humanity’s challenges in the face of the military-industrial complex¹ and the banking system. Steve Grumbine and Bill Mitchell talk about the importance of hope and activism. Both acknowledge the uphill battle of transforming society on a larger scale, and that personal hope and collective action are needed while navigating the complexities of our world.

I drove through Northern

0:05

Virginia and it was filled with these

0:08

massive military industrial complex

0:10

buildings and all the different military

0:14

contractors looking at that and say my

0:16

God that’s what we’re up

0:18

against I had spoken with Michael Hudson

0:21

a while back and he said you got the

0:23

banks too don’t forget them they’re not

0:25

interested in Saving Humanity they’re

0:27

interested in their own wealth that’s it

0:30

and it’s so massive so

0:34

depressing and I don’t know if humanity

0:37

is fit to survive without hope Bill I

0:40

don’t know how to be a parent without

0:43

hope I don’t know how to be an activist

0:45

without hope for me at this moment the

0:49

only thing that I can see is that I

0:51

believe that the insights of mmt will

0:55

allow a rational human being to make

0:58

decisions that allow us to do whatever

1:01

it takes to survive that’s my hope I

1:04

agree with you I’m not annunciating here

1:06

a give up strategy that’s definitely not

1:09

my game and as an educator and as a

1:12

public figure intellectual figure I see

1:15

my role is

1:17

continually trying to engender knowledge

1:21

that will give people

1:22

Alternatives I don’t Advocate we just

1:25

lie down and take

1:27

it but as an academic as a researcher

1:30

I’ve got to look at the

1:32

evidence yes and here’s an important

1:35

thing I think and it took me a long time

1:38

as a person to understand this that I

1:43

used to be depressed all the time

1:45

because I was researching labor markets

1:47

and poverty and developing countries and

1:51

I’d always feel guilty that I had a job

1:54

I’ve been well paid in my life as an

1:56

academic I had a secure job I was able

1:59

to Transit from a workingclass

2:02

background to a middle class background

2:04

through

2:04

education so I used to always feel

2:08

guilty about that that there was all

2:10

this poverty around me and why was I not

2:13

poor and it took me a long time to

2:16

really take it easy on myself in a way

2:19

to not flatulate over what I couldn’t

2:23

control that I had a responsibility to

2:26

those that I care about to be kind and

2:29

generous

2:31

and to be happy as a human condition and

2:34

to enjoy the sunlight and the beach and

2:37

to do everything I could within my own

2:40

micro realm to be true to Values so Louisa

2:44

and I now have a sustainable residence

2:47

we grow food we have a very energy

2:51

efficient house we’re

2:54

Frugal and so we’re not involved in Mass

2:58

consumption if every spending decision

3:01

is based upon

3:03

sustainability so in a micro way we’re

3:06

really trying to live a degrowth agenda

3:09

because ultimately you can onlcy do what

3:11

you can

3:12

control so that’s on a personal level

3:15

I’ve got great hope that I can continue

3:18

to educate people around me to live a

3:21

life that is attempting as far as I can

3:24

to be

3:26

sustainable within reason but as an Acade

3:29

mic then I go to work each day and I sit

3:32

in my office and I say well how how’s

3:35

this going to work out on an aggregate

3:37

scale and I think that’s an important

3:40

difference we’ve got to keep personal

3:43

hope in our own motivations our own

3:46

behaviors our own way of treating each

3:48

other and spreading the knowledge and

3:51

educating and being active and trying to

3:56

recruit as many people to a sustainable

3:59

lifestyle

(Oharra Palestina dela eta)

Argi zegoenez,

NAZIO BATUen proposamenean…

Palestine be divided into an Arab State and… a Jewish State…

Beraz, Palestina egon bazegoen, eta Israel ez!

Gehigarriak:

a) Ukraina dela eta:

Ukrainaren proxy gerlarekin bukatzeko afera, denbora kontua da. Ez dago besterik!

b) Israel-ez:

Afera korapilatuagoa da, zeren Israeldarrek lapurtu egin baitiote lurra Palestinari…

Baina funtsean botere bertsuaren aurrean gaude: sistema unipolarra (AEB, gehi NATO plus Pentagonoa) gehi EB eta Israel versus sistema multipolarra (BRICS)
