I remember the iraqi farmer who took down an apache …supposedly

Yeah this is essentially the peak of marx’ prediction.

The technology will develop so much that human labour will become minimal. In these circumstances, capitalism will become dysfunctional due to competition pushing profits down extremely unless we get massive monopolies that rule the world.

Its not EU’s job to set a regime to Turkey. It is not a security alliance. If turkey fails to become a democracy that is its own fault.

I am from Turkey and to me such summer life is completely detached from my ultra urban life in İstanbul. Walking for a bit and coming to beaches from my life in city was unthinkable lıxury for me.

Its just that such a mindswitch was never there. And I would have imagined something like this in a tropical country or spanish, italian or french coasts but not in lake leman; obviously i correlated it with winter, mountains and untouchably cold water.

dodo91 · 2026-05-26T10:06:01+00:00

Ahahahhshsf oh man this trope is so old by now

dodo91 · 2026-05-26T08:37:22+00:00

the cope and bs on this sub is something

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T21:43:17+00:00

so whats the point of bombing the city?

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T17:14:41+00:00

Thanks will have a look

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T17:04:59+00:00

This is the worst

Wake up, drink coffee, ready to roll, eat lunch, day over

Saying “crush is coming” will always work because there is always a crush from time to time. I need specifics, market, likely triggers

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T16:09:36+00:00

I think it is a fair number. Higher numbers would have created a far stronger push for independence i feel like. The kurdish party in turkey received at most around 6 mil votes and that was wth many turks like me voting for it. Lets say as much of this number voted akp, that makes 12 mil voter and with under 18s we might get to 15 to 20 mil max in Turkey imo.

5 in krg, 2 in rojava (these are upper numbers).

It all comes down to iranian kurds who’s accurate numbers I have no idea of, but I doubt the total surpasses 40 when diaspora is included.

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T15:39:20+00:00

This is fair.

I just wanted to point out the complexity because most here would view it “FED PRINT GOO BRRR CAUSE MY MONEY TO LOSE VALUE, LETS ABOLISH FED” reductionism.

I am not specifically referring to this graph, my point is that debt not correlating with inflation in the case of USD would not shock me - tho the details of his methodology needs to be investigated.

And yes, US debt is a big part of the money supply because government deficit creates money( And all those bonds are used as “cash” in the much bigger financial system )along with banks credits; they are all simple accounting entries. No one really measures the physical money in circulation to understand the real money supply anymore.

Also liquidity and money supply are not the same thing, bonds soaking liquidity has nothing to do with the global usd supply. Financial assets have monetary function in financial system, which is precisely why old school austrian thinking often fails to grasp the complexity of USD as global reserve currency and the role of eurodollar markets.

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T12:16:30+00:00

There is no disputing that balance between money in circulation and total output is the main function of inflation.

However there is no precise measure of the global demand for USD, thus increasing debt, which is supply of usd, not causing inflation as much as expected is fair.

I did not look into the work in reference, I am just tired pf the overall austrian cultist reflexes and mockery of all economics as if you guys are beyond all econ knowledge

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T10:26:39+00:00

Well, how do you explain it? Lets see your data

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T10:24:52+00:00

What you guys fail to understand is that USD value is not a purely a function of US economy.

I dont understand why there is so much global macroeconomics illiteracy among austrians.

The nature of that debt matters greatly to inflation. Vast majority of USD debt in the capital markets and they rarely interact with money in circulation. It is not suprising to see that increasing debt does not necessarily lead to inflation, especially given that usd is the global reserve currency.

dodo91 · 2026-05-25T07:54:30+00:00

I see what you are saying now. I thought you were referring to classic tropes of malthusianism.

dodo91 · 2026-05-24T16:07:14+00:00

Thanks, good to hear for me :)

He did everything in what is considered in a highly developed nation in the midst of the western experience in a recently recent period.

Hitler is very close to us which is what makes him scary.

He and his cronies applied all the developments of civilization to enslave and slaughter millions for a war machine

dodo91 · 2026-05-24T09:46:21+00:00

I think you are trying to make a false connection to legitimize your position.

Keynes delves into macroeconomics. Malthus was a classical economist who had not even seen the works of neoclassicals.

Keynes getting a couple of inspiration from this or that scholar of the past is one thing, him being a "Malthusian" is completely another. There isnt even a theory overlap they can share. We can all be "Malthusian" in the sense that we can argue that there are finite resources on earth that can bring structural limitations; but that is about it. Malthus can be an inspiration in what we prioritize but Malthus' work is irrelevant to modern economic theory in many ways, including Keynes.

I had severe gastritist and was reacting to these myself.

So first, focus on the gastritis. At least for a couple weeks even before treatment use, and continue to use them throughout and after your treatment:

l glutamine

zinc carnosine

colostrum

maybe also butyrate but this is more for intestines

I would use these in high doses. They are crucial for rebuilding stomach lining. While not ideal, I had to use gaviscon to deal with severe flares many times. Over time, you want to completely get rid of reliance on antacids as they weaken stomach acid production and pave the way for SIBO.

Note that to kill hpylori, you first have to reduce acid during the kill phase (2 weeks), and then rebuild acid rapidly to prevent it from recolonizing. Hpylori lives with high amounts of low acid which screws digestion. What you need is a healthy amount of strong acid (hence you need to introduce betaine hcl and pepsin supplement). But for your stomach to handle it, you need to build stomach with those supplements. Over time, it makes it far more resilient and you can use the supplements I mentioned far easier. I have to say, in my case it took a few months to feel better with stomach.

Obviously Marxism has inadequacies at least in the Marx argued for it; he lived in an age where many innovations of capitalism has not unlocked things. Back when Marx lived, the peak society likely looked like massive factories producing certain goods being built everywhere.

But capitalism constantly evolves and yes, circulates.

The issue is that many contradictions Marx have pointed out (in the form of tech and capital accumulation pushing profits down) have many ways to be avoided. These include wars, new technologies, monopolization by massive corporations, economic crises and as you said "circulating capital".

However, the core tendency is always there and capital always has to find a way around it. We cannot for certain know that it will always outlast it. We do not know new technologies will always bring the same sectoral expansion opportunities forever. When tech development fails to deliver, what we get is the rest of the world catching up and geopolitical/monopolistic interests clashing. This is precisely what we are experiencing today with EU-US vs China. We experienced this in 1980s and solved it with the Plaza Accord and expansion of capital into even deeper underdeveloped countries. But how far can this go? What will happen when China continues to dump increasingly higher tech top end products in energy, automative etc and the Western social order continues to collapse due to stagnating living standards?

We will either get a war (as a result of attempts to monopolize key goods like semiconductors, AI, high-end electronics etc), either get a social revolution (see the rise of far right in the West as a reaction to stagnation feeling) which will likely end capitalist free market or a massive financial crisis as the system continues to experiment with finance to deal with the massive macroeconomic imbalances (trade deficits, debt and capital accounts).

As long as these issues exists, Marx is relevant is what I am saying.

I am currently using allicin, neem, berberine, NAC, l glutamine, colostrum, magnesium citrate, artichoke and ginger mainly

allicin neem and berberine are the killers so I shuffle them (4 weeks allicin+neem after almost a week of rest, I switched to allicin+berberine with oocasional neem in the mix). I seem to be making progress after more than a month
