His feed has been exactly as racist and big mad as you'd expect. My favourite unhinged tweet by him (well, retweet) is the following that says the presence of some government owned grocery stores will immediately lead to mass civil unrest and starvation:
Naturally they're prepping some sort of legal shenanigans and a spoiler candidate:
They're already demanding that ICE deport him.
Then they get rid of Adams, too! 2 birds, etc. etc. etc…
It's sort of an example of the fetishism of commodities, assuming that those private grocery stores are the reason food is available at all. Dawg, there's still the government stores and the local vendors who were selling to the private stores who now can only really sell to the state, in this catastrophization. You are literally just making an argument that government stores are at least marginally better in this case.
Yeah it would be a real shame if some dastardly, evil people were to buy desirable foodstuffs from government subsidized sources, and then turn around and mark those prices up to make a huge profit by selling them to people without that same access...
I mean, those people might even jack up prices 300% due to some Crisis™, and then bring them back down to only 250% when it's resolved. Can you imagine the gouging if private actors were just completely able to do that with no oversight or regulation??
And even worse, as we often see in these unregulated markets, eventually some of the actors get together and collude on pricing, and they all go up at exactly the same time! And then there would be no way for the regular people that don't have any other options to be able to continue to afford that food!
They might even get together as some kind of gang and forcibly buy out the other players in the market, further consolidating their wholesale access, pricing, and regional availability! Like some kind of, idk one-sided polar market capture. Wish there was a word for that, because it really does sound like it would be terrible.
It's funny because if anything, this would benefit the industrial capitalist greatly. The merchant doesn't get to sink his teeth into his rate of profit nearly as much, whilst the industrialist is able to realize more of his commodities.
So...stores will sell things cheaply and affordably, and this will somehow lead to people stealing more stuff, not less?
These are the failsons and faildaughters in charge of everything in the west. This is why everything is going to shit, their parents and grandparents understood that the working class needed concessions and distractions, but this generation is pure kool-aid drinker. These guys literally don't even understand the basics of the economic system that they are in charge of.
I am nationalizing this.
Yup. Which is why they need 100% control & subservience of all spectrums over government and control. Their position is at once incredibly powerful and incredibly brittle.
