We were indoctrinated to believe that capitalism is dependent on Democracy. China proves that the most efficient capitalism occurs in autocracies, and Project 2025 has that as its goal.
Egberto, my hat is off to you. This is one of your best-ever blog posts: intriguing, thought-provoking, myth-busting. “Capitalism thrives just as well, if not better, under authoritarian regimes.” It brings to mind the gripping 1962 drama, The Manchurian Candidate. Spoiler alert: the big reveal is that the film’s supposedly anticommunist super-patriot secretly leads an authoritarian plot to take over America.
Sounds an awful lot like the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025: ultra far-right, super patriotic, but like the film’s Manchurian candidate, actually hellbent on engineering an authoritarian coup to take over America.
I love the irony: the Heritage Foundation and its many morally filthy minions serving as a collective Manchurian candidate. Though Heritage has now been exposed, it’s still there, still dangerous, and still hellbent on transforming the US into an authoritarian state.
Every person who reads these words can play a part in this drama, literally and figuratively, by VOTING and also by encouraging other folks to turn out and vote.
The Manchurian Candidate was released 24 Oct 1962. This coming 24 Oct will mark the film's 62nd anniversary — less than two weeks before Election Day 2024, which in turn will determine whether the real-life Heritage plot succeeds, or not.
Again, you have a role to play. Take it seriously, and ACT NOW.
…China is not a Communist country. The deception is in having the “Chinese Communist Party” (CCP) as the name of the power structure. China began its transformation from Communism to Fascism when Mao died in 1976. It is now complete, as is Russia’s transformation, beginning with the dissolution of the USSR in 1991.

Gracias hermano. I hope you listen to the video for a more personal touch to the subject.

Brilliant analysis, Egberto, with one exception: China is a Fascist country,
