  • Yeah, Walt is fully responsible. The bourgeois couple are revealed to not even be that bad. The idea that they stole from him is walt’s delusion. He left because of his inferiority complex (which he developed at a very young age).

    Honestly, the show is closer to being a Greek tragedy. Many people take it to be a critique of capitalism because of the background context and world models we as an audience bring to the show.

    In fact, the show goes out of its way to show that every moment in time, Walt has an out that he refuses to use because of pride. The show itself also analyses the role of the state or big business in the crime or poverty happening only tangentially and gives very little screen time to it.













  • Ursula von der Leyen, the EU’s top executive, called Draghi’s pitch to accelerate Europe’s green industry “basically the same idea we’re pushing forward.”

    Literally 6 months ago we had an article. This is what it had to say

    Even more of a problem for Europe is that its countries have been cutting back on climate-related investments and increasing defense-related investments. The European Investment Bank (set up in 2019) is, as the Financial Times reported, “under pressure to fund more projects in the arms industry,” while the European Sovereignty Fund—set up in 2022 to promote industrialization in Europe—is going to pivot toward support for military industries. **Military spending, in other words, will overwhelm the commitments to climate investments **

    and she has the gall to pretend as if she is pushing for green investment?
