I love that Ron Paul always goes back to JFK as the first coup. Quite interesting story about why Chomsky wont touch the topic. Dr. Paul still more articulate than the current president. #Legend #EndTheFed https://www.antiwar.com/blog/2024/07/30/venezuela-whos-coup-ing-who/
this is a great listen. thanks for sharing. i dream of a green party/libertarian alliance to take out the corporate duopoly war machine in the u.s.
Conspiracy theories are a way of blaming the outcome of real and complicated systems on a few people rather than addressing systemic problems. Usually the blame rests with some fundamentally “other” who are made to be both supevillians and not quite human. The reality is the while things are messed up, it isn’t some cabal doing it in secret and if they’re only exposed then all the problems will magically disappear.
But coups do happen. Not always in secret, but sometimes. Wikileaks has shown us this. And after some time, they even admit it (memoires etc.). I do agree that the real world is messy and complicated tho!
