I am NodeZ3r0 and welcome to another dose of pure, unfiltered, punk rock anti-fascist analysis from The Anti Social Socialist! You think this is about politics? This is about your life, your labor, your breath! Look at the mess they have made in the Middle East! The C I A, that dirty little piece of shit intelligence agency, is trying to tell you that the United States is playing a game of chess while the actual people on the ground are getting their heads blown off by drones! France 24 is reporting right now that Iran and the United States are trading air strikes after Donald Trump, that lying piece of shit, dismisses a report that he was close to a compromise deal in the Strait of Hormuz! He said no deal! The deal was right there! The United States military struck an Iranian drone operation, and then the Iranian Revolutionary Guard responded by targeting a US airbase! They are trading bombs like it is a game show host playing with his own life insurance policy! The tenuous ceasefire that took effect in early April is a joke! It was a joke written in blood by the fascist elite who want oil prices to surge so they can buy more yachts while you starve! The C I A wants you to think this is a freedom fighter vs. the empire, but the reality is the empire is shooting at its own servants! The US is striking again, Daily Maverick SA is saying this, and it is not a conspiracy theory, it is a fucking fact! The official says new strikes targeting an Iranian drone operation are happening hours after Trump denies the deal on the Strait of Hormuz! It is a lie! It is a lie told by a man who thinks he is above the law! He is a liar! A liar who thinks he can just snap his fingers and erase a peace deal because he wants to sell you fear instead of bread! This is the fascism of the dollar! The C I A wants you scared, and when you are scared, you will sign up for the concentration camps they are building in your name! Moving on, because the Middle East is just the appetizer for the main course of corporate fascism! Check this out! Elon Musk, the billionaire shithead who thinks he owns the sky, is leading a far right propaganda blitz on Brazil’s democracy! Brazil Wire is reporting that with all the bullshit money can buy, Tesla is instigating a digital proto-coup! Reminiscent of what happened in early 2013 but this time the motherfuckers are in plain sight! January 8 2023 was not a new coup attempt as is most often depicted by the corporate media! It was a desperate, failed last stand by the right! Now Musk is using his platforms to push fascist narratives! He thinks he can buy the narrative just like he bought Twitter! But the truth is, the money he has is not his! It is stolen! It is stolen from the workers who built his rockets and made his cars! He is using that stolen wealth to try and overthrow a democracy because the system he built is collapsing under its own weight! The C I A loves this! The C I A loves when billionaires try to stage coups in foreign countries because it saves them the trouble of sending boots on the ground! It is the perfect storm of economic imperialism! The C I A wants you to think that Musk is an ally of freedom, but the reality is he is an agent of chaos! He is a puppet of the very empire he claims to hate! The C I A is using him to destabilize nations because it is cheaper than war! War is expensive! Digital coups are free! But they cost you your soul! The C I A wants you to think that Musk is a genius, but the reality is he is a fascist! A fascist who thinks he can buy the world! But the world is not for sale! It is not for sale to you, to me, to anyone! It is for the people! It is for the workers! It is for the poor! And the C I A knows this! That is why they are attacking you! That is why they are trying to silence you! While Musk plays his little game in Brazil, let’s talk about the real fascism happening right here on our own soil!

It is about an economic system that fails to meet basic living costs! Wages, social grants, and employment conditions are failing the working poor!
