Agitators are a set of interfering, meddling people who come down to some perfectly contented class of the community and sow the seeds of discontent among them. That is the reason why agitators are so absolutely necessary.

It depends how #migration occured. Were push and pull factors genuine?

Over the past two decades in #Australia, migration has been dishonest and used to cynically boost GDP, #consumption and realEstate, while suppressing wages, at the expense of biodiversity, climate and #socialProgress. Its been well documented. Many are promised El Dorado, then abused on arrival.

These people will tell you how they were duped.

Also, #bailouts themselves allow and cause huge #wealthDisparaities that fuel extreme waste and yet they, the #Keynesians quietly demand that 3% #magicNumber of #growth in #consumption each year.

The #MagicMoneyTree'ers are the reason we are in this mess. They created a wasteful #VietnamWar and told the world in 1971, "you'll take our pretty paper promises". Look at any #socialProgress graph since the 70s. Its basically all bad news.

Holo has the more holistic take.

Find #MichaelParenti's War On Yugoslavia lecture. Then tell us they didn't de-develop the #middleEast that was achieving greater and greater #socialProgress before the #derascination and #controlledDemolition.

If there's one thing we've learned over the past 20 years, bigger weapons don't make you better. They do make countries that use them mentally very hollow.

This hawkish #antiRussia hysteria was started by #HillaryClinton during the #Trump election.

She should be in #prison just for this, frankly. She persisted with it for a long time without evidence and the #MSM propagated it.

So many opportunities for #socialProgress have been squandered by this.

If #Biden pursued #sedition charges against Hillary and the most egregious #commentators, it'd do a lot of good. They did bring some to court. They pleaded, 'they're a joke'.
