Source: Bold Politics with Zack Polanski

How we lost the argument on Britain’s relationship with the European Union forever? What is the point in our nuclear weapons if Donald Trump’s America has such power over whether we can use them or not? What has the left learned from the formation of Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s Your Party?

Zack Polanski speaks to Greek political party leader Yanis Varoufakis about playing a role in the formation of Corbyn and Sultana’s new party, how our nuclear weapons actually function and why we’re approaching artificial intelligence through completely the wrong lens.

  1. How We Need To Move Ahead Together
    We need to be ready to not permit the oligarks and wealthy to force our economic system back to where it was before the Tump and fascist regime. We should look at Allende and what he tried to pull of in Chile. The only problem is that the USA wealthy and ..CIA said that we need to stop Allende by saying he was a communist.
    Now lets look at this in perspective. There is no communism!! THERE NEVER HAS BEEN! Look at Putin and you’re looking at fascism. We have to be ready to demonstrate and create a socialistic democratic republic and not let the wealthy use the CIA again to scare people!!

    The choice now is clear, we reorganize.., reorganize wealth in this country thru realistic and fair taxation and thru democratic socialistic creative policies. To do this we need to apply the strongest portion of our economy to support the middle class and poor while working toward a classless culture. The other option is a complete fascist take over and back to extremes with very poor and very wealthy with a dwindling middle class.
    We cannot let fascism take over again! I would hope that we all begin to talk about this issue NOW! Yenis lets talk about a real path forward NOW Thje Left coming together..needs more specificity.
