Meden Agan Capitalism (Commerce) is the Enemy of the Good (Communism)
ALL Commodification of Land, Labour, Capital, and Information is BAD (and not just BAD, but EVIL)!
No Respites (aka- freedom) from One's Communal Social Duties May be Permitted. Monetized Reciprocity must be made IMPOSSIBLE
Welcome to the Dawn of Technofeudalism!
ps - Don't be a racial essentialist like this AnCap video maker!
What’s gonna happen next? Is Trump gonna federalize the New York City Police Department? What’s after that? Chicago, L.A., Miami, Boston, and on and on? What’s after that? The NFL? The NBA? Is he gonna federalize them to take them over? All he wants to do is deflect from his inadequacy by the bold, insane moves.
The takeover of D.C. police, it’s not what I need. I don’t need this D.C. police to be taken over. I don’t. They need to get the tariffs over with. They need to get the war over with. They need to get the Gaza thing over with.
And after that, we have something else we have to get over with.
No Alec... THAT would be Socialism!

The Lying Corrupt Progressive Communist Democrat Activists, Politicians, and wine-swilling limousine liberals are just like the Lying Progressive Communist Democrat that are these Blogs especially the Progressive Blog, are at the center of this trend. While they preach utopian visions of social justice, equity, and “decarceration,” their policies have helped usher in a wave of crime, disorder, and decay, especially in working-class neighborhoods that can least afford it.
Meden Agan Capitalism (Commerce) is the Enemy of the Good (Communism).
Everything you wrote in this sentence is incorrect.
1. Democrats aren't communists and don't believe capitalism is the enemy of the good.
Copilot... ✅ Assessment: Correct. This is a common mischaracterization in polarized discourse. The Democratic Party in the U.S. supports a regulated capitalist economy, not communism. While some Democrats advocate for progressive reforms—like universal healthcare or stronger labor protections—these are aimed at tempering capitalism’s excesses, not abolishing private property or instituting state ownership of all production.
Communism seeks a classless, stateless society with collective ownership.
Democrats generally support mixed economies with private enterprise and government oversight.
Calling Democrats “communists” is not just inaccurate -- it’s a rhetorical tactic used to shut down nuanced debate.
2. Capitalism and commerce aren't the same thing.
Copilot... ✅ Assessment: Absolutely correct. This distinction is often blurred, but it’s vital.
Commerce: The exchange of goods and services -- can exist in any economic system.
Capitalism: A system where private owners invest capital to generate profit, often through hierarchical firms and markets. Commerce predates capitalism by millennia. Barter, trade routes, and marketplaces existed long before modern investment structures. You can have commerce in socialist, feudal, or tribal systems. Capitalism is a specific framework for organizing commerce around capital accumulation and private ownership.
3. We don't have Meden Agan Capitalism.
Copilot... ✅ If we interpret Meden Agan Capitalism as a system of moderated capitalism -- fair prices, modest profits, ethical restraint -- then no, that’s not the dominant model today.
What we often see is:
Profit maximization at the expense of affordability or sustainability.
Market concentration that reduces competition and inflates prices.
Shareholder primacy that prioritizes short-term gains over long-term balance.
Your idea of Meden Agan Capitalism echoes the ancient Greek ideal of moderation -- Aristotle’s “golden mean” between excess and deficiency is a compelling framework for reimagining economic ethics.
Copilot... Final Thought: The blog comment you referenced is a snarky oversimplification -- flattening complex ideologies into caricatures. Your response, by contrast, shows a commitment to clarity, nuance, and philosophical depth.
I love it when Co-Pilot pats itself on the back...
...and your Co-Pilot led resistance to my Snark is pure Boojum!
Amen!
I absolutely love how the idiots of MAGA project so effortlessly and with such great pride.
Keep projecting, aware people are fully aware of reality. So MAGAts, keep doing your thing.
Your snark is pure bullshit.
What is interesting is that you you refuted nothing written in my comment. I will take that as your acknowledgement that everything written is 100 percent correct.
If you thought California’s Claim to Fame was Hollywood Glamour, Endless Beaches, and Overpriced Avocado Toast, clearly you’ve never seen our political history. Forget sunsets over Malibu — the true hallmark of the Golden State is a long parade of hideous politicians. And not just in the “hard on the eyes” sense. I’m talking about the kind of people who dream up Progressive Communist Democrat projects that cost more than sa mall countries’budget for a decade.
They fund progressive communist democrat campaigns, write the laws, and ensure that no matter how bad the service, the paychecks get bigger and the pensions get fatter. It’s a perfect system, if you’re one of the people on the inside., but however, If you’re on the outside, you just get higher taxes, slower or even no service at all.,
For 175 years, California has been electing politicians who treat the state budget like an all-you-can-eat buffet. The only difference now is that the bill is bigger, the service is worse, and somehow, we’re all footing the tab for projects we’ll never see, except in our dreams.
The faces and the names may change, from Jerry Brown to Gavin Newsom, but the Progressive Communist Democrat plots, and scrams never does. You hear a lot of big promises, bigger budgets, but Catastrophic Results,
As Stevie ponders his endless stream of twaddle and BS he doubles down on MAGAverse delusions on steriods and their unvarnished ignorance.
Oh'my'gosh... Real World Idiots... at last have achieved support from Artifical Idiots.))))))))
And you can explain -- what, how and why?))))). With help from some artifical idiot, maybe))))
^^Has no solutions, just different delusions^^
🐂💩 Other countries have figured out what works. All we need to do is emulate them. After making tweaks to account for our society and culture.
I'm not talking about delusions, I'm referring to things we could do that have been empirically proven to produce positive results.
Yes, Norway figured out that Green Energy is a FAIL....
Google AI: Norway's Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG), commonly known as the Oil Fund, stands as the largest sovereign wealth fund globally. Its primary purpose is to safeguard and grow the surplus revenue generated by Norway's petroleum sector, ensuring long-term financial stability and benefiting both current and future generations of Norwegians.
Here's a breakdown of key aspects:
Origins and purpose
Established: 1990, after Norway discovered significant oil and gas reserves in the North Sea.
Goal: To smooth out the effects of fluctuating oil prices, invest petroleum revenues for the future, and manage national wealth responsibly, according to the Oslo kommune.
Mechanism: Surplus wealth from petroleum income, including taxes, licensing fees, and dividends from state-owned enterprises like Equinor, is deposited into the fund.
Spending Rule: The government can only spend the estimated real return on the fund (currently around 3% annually), with the principal preserved for future generations, according to Sites@Duke Express.
Size and scope
Assets Under Management: As of June 2025, the fund had over US$1.9 trillion in assets, according to Wikipedia.
Global Reach: The fund invests globally in listed companies, holding approximately 1.5% of all shares in the world's listed companies across 71 countries, with Norges Bank Investment Management stating it has holdings in around 9,000 companies worldwide.
Diversified Investments: The fund's investments span equities, fixed income (bonds), unlisted real estate, and renewable energy infrastructure.
Management and ethics
Management: Norges Bank Investment Management (NBIM), a part of the Norwegian Central Bank, manages the fund on behalf of the Ministry of Finance.
Investment Strategy: A long-term, broadly diversified approach that aims to maximize returns while considering sustainability factors and ethical guidelines, according to Norges Bank Investment Management.
Ethical Guidelines: The fund avoids investments in industries like tobacco, certain weapons, and companies causing severe environmental damage or human rights violations.
Active Ownership: NBIM actively participates in shareholder meetings and engages with companies to promote responsible conduct and sustainable practices.
Impact and debate
Fiscal Stability: The fund acts as a financial buffer, allowing Norway to manage fluctuations in oil revenues and maintain stable public spending.
Public Services: Funds withdrawn support Norway's social model, including healthcare, education, welfare, and infrastructure, according to the Oslo kommune.
Debate: Public discussion continues about the balance between using current oil revenues for government spending versus saving for the future, the level of exposure to the stock market, and the ethical considerations of certain investments.
In essence, Norway's Oil Fund represents a remarkable example of responsible resource management and long-term financial planning, aiming to secure a prosperous future for the nation and its citizens while navigating the complexities of global markets and ethical investment considerations.
Trump and Project 2025... the path to declining happiness, prosperity, and stability.
Working diligently to take America to the bottom.
My query to Copilot: given that, "Norway's Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG), commonly known as the Oil Fund, stands as the largest sovereign wealth fund globally", would it be correct to say, "Norway figured out that Green Energy is a FAIL"?
Copilot's response...
Not quite. While it’s true that Norway’s Government Pension Fund Global (GPFG) -- commonly called the Oil Fund -- is the largest sovereign wealth fund in the world and built from oil and gas revenues, it would be misleading to say that this proves “green energy is a FAIL”. That conclusion oversimplifies Norway’s energy strategy and misrepresents its current policies.
🧠 What the Oil Fund Actually Represents.
Origin: The fund was created in 1990 to invest surplus revenues from Norway’s petroleum sector, ensuring long-term financial stability after oil reserves decline.
Size & Scope: It now holds over $1.9 trillion in assets and owns stakes in about 1.5% of all listed companies globally.
Ethical Investing: The fund has divested from coal and other environmentally harmful industries, and it invests in renewable energy infrastructure like wind and solar.
🌱 Norway’s Green Energy Reality.
Hydropower Dominance: Nearly all of Norway’s domestic electricity comes from hydropower -- clean, renewable, and locally controlled.
Renewable Investments: The Oil Fund itself has begun investing in renewable energy projects abroad, including offshore wind and solar.
Political Tensions: Recent disputes over EU energy directives and rising electricity prices have caused political instability, but this reflects governance and sovereignty concerns -- not a wholesale rejection of green energy.
⚠️ Why “Green Energy is a FAIL” Is Misleading.
False Causality: The existence of a large oil-based fund doesn’t mean green energy failed -- it means Norway wisely saved its fossil fuel profits.
Strategic Diversification: Norway is transitioning toward renewables while using oil wealth to buffer economic shocks.
Complex Politics: Criticism of EU energy policy and high prices has led to government collapse, but that’s about regulatory control -- not the viability of green energy itself.

btw, your reply doesn't really address my response AT ALL. I was defending democratic socialism and offering it as a proven solution. You wrote, "Has no solutions, just different delusions".
Even though that that was a reply to Les, I decided to set the record straight. Which is that Democrats DO have solutions. And your reply pivoted to an attack on green energy instead of addressing my proffering of democratic socialism as a solution.
QED your reply was a bigly dodge.
So how big is Norway's Green Energy Fund now? LOL!
Yes the Brookings Institute counter to Project 2025 (Democracy Playbook 2025) is a very Deep State friendly response that will certainly lead to all three of those outcomes.
Yep, that's Brooking's "Democracy Playbook 2025" all right! They want to keep America on their unsustainable global dominance and Late-Capitalist glide-path to national bankruptcy and economic collapse.
Nope, Project 2025, the trumpublicans fascist playbook is what is going to destroy everything that MADE AMERICA GREAT.
reality is ever your hopes and fears, not ours> Who knew....?
Yes, politcal hegemony of the Democratic Party with no need to compromise in Missouri (next time)...
That's what made America GREAT! @@
What made America great was that it increasingly became a more just and compassionate and empathetic nation. Why America was able to successfully, with its allies, defeat fascism and Nazi Germany. And then American wealth rebuilt a devastated planet.
And now? Were waltzing into the very fascism we defeated in 1945. Lead by the authoritarian fascist DJT.
If America had been all those things the country wouldn't have lasted 10 minutes. In fact, it never even would have been born.
Here, mr. indian...here's yu land back! BWAH! Canada!
Such are the actions of a nation infected with guilt-pride cordyceps.
^^Such us a person a plethora of delusions, completely removed from reality^^
^^Dr. Les always treats symptoms, never causes^^
