The sad demise of the West in the hands of the Cowboys

I was at least prepared to accept that Capitalist media platforms while more expensive might have given you more choice and so access to more good stuff. Just spent the weekend signing up Amazon Prime, Paramount+ and History only to find that for £19/mo or £228/yr (cf.

Then turn on BBC Radio 4 this morning and have more fun than I've had since Friday. "Standing Up For the Classics" is one just really good BBC show, or perhaps "Add to playlist" (Tues), "News Quiz" (Fri). American Capitalism really is junk. #DestroyAmerica and rid the world of the pollution. Oh and had the awful experience of seeing a English classic viz. Lord of the Rings utterly trashed and turned by the CIA into unapologetic US war propaganda. Perhaps that should say #DestroyAmericaWithExtremePrejudice

In the same way as science is now telling us that Capitalist/American food is dangerous for your health, hopefully soon science will start to tell us that exposure to Capitalist/American media will damage you wellbeing too. And eventually we will realise that America in general is just bad for this planet.
