Trump’s post with the AI generated Gaza plan reminds me of people who hear about some plan to put dental into Medicare or renewables somewhere or free education or anything that sounds socialist and say ‘who is going to pay for it?’. The US knows how to demolish stuff, demolish countries, cities you know what I am talking about but actually building things?

They do know how to build things but shy away from paying for it. I mean the next time you hear ‘who is going to pay for it?’ You say the same people who pay for all of the wars, the taxpayer. In Sydney the Barangaroo precinct is this shiney new playground for the wealthy that you can access but could you buy an apartment there? Most of Sydney is already unaffordable for most people.

Then people are happy to see a massive casino go up, a Metro train line, some restaurants, landscaping and you can pass through but who benefits? Barangaroo then is like the Gaza plan, a wealthy playground cooked up in the meth lab of AI and Trumps ‘vision’ (aka final solution). Someone said how brilliant Trump’s idea was and I mentioned that the Palestinians would be ‘removed’.

How is that actually benefiting anyone but people who can afford expensive food, expensive apartments and are all about ‘great ideas’ rather than the messy dealings of reality. Anyway all of what I am saying is painfully obvious but people see a bad AI reel with glossy cinematography and think what a great idea.

I met a young man with schizophrenia early last year and he was saying how he had great ideas to tell world leaders how to solve poverty and world problems. He and a lot of people don’t realise that world leaders are the ones keeping people in poverty and have been in that game forever and ever. 

All of the feel good movies, books, all of the endless fabrications and especially the landscaping that councils in Sydney have latched onto are just about….looks. It looks good so it must be good, it looks bad so it must be bad. AI art is so terrible but that is its attraction, the way it builds attraction/aversion and hooks you in. Like anything though it is what you use it for. 

To banish an ethnic group for a vision that nobody outside of the western world wants is deluded. You have to remember that the rest of the world is in most cases ignored and there is censorship in many forms. People feel that Trump is actually doing something but for all of the endless ideas and verbosity what will actually occur in reality? More wars, but ‘who is going to pay for it?

America’s allies so they can share the burden, aka pay the US money for weapons that they only need because of US policies they have to follow. If you look at the South China Sea fiasco the US may stir the pot but they will put either the Philippines or Japan in the front line. The US can sit back and sell weapons or at least they hope they can.

The US is willing to carve up Ukraine with Russia and they sat back in the hope they could weaken Russia. If Russia supported putting weapons on the US border with Mexico the US would be up in arms. If the US supports policies doing that to Russia knowing full well the Russians would start a war eventually who does Ukraine have to thank?

There is no doubt US allies are going to get robbed blind because there is no reach left. They looted Iraq and Afghanistan which according to artists in Australia was all about women’s rights and taking off burqas. The opioid crisis was a disaster/opportunity from the fields of Afghanistan that only ended after what was ‘a just war’ yet really ‘just a war’ ended.
