“ Trump tells Sessions to ‘stop this rigged witch hunt right now” by Eileen Sullivan and Michael S. Schmidt
The fake news media attempts to mislead the public into thinking that Trump ordered Sessions to end the Trump Russia Investigation, which is now making the outlandish claim that his tweets are an obstruction of justice. They purposely exclude the word “should” from their headlines and analysis. This is clearly his opinion.

“ The FBI informant who monitored the Trump campaign, Stefan Halper, oversaw a CIA spying operation in the 1980 presidential election “ by Glenn Greenwald on The Intercept
The lie that this was just an FBI “ informant” embedded to protect the Trump campaign has been destroyed. This was a professional CIA political spy.

good ole political espionage
i really feel liek the 80s are makign a comeback
sythwave, commies, all of its too familiar
Layman here, but how do you go from socialism back to capitalism? Like who gets what to start with? Do you just claim ownership of whatever you can fight for and kill any mofo in your way? And how the fuck do you pay someone to work for you with no money to start with?
Nomatter what someones gonna make a trade commodity
Reminds me, how in Metro, mil grade ammo was their version of gold standard currency
Depends if your talking theoretical or practical
Theoretically a socialist society would have no currency and no privately owned buisneses, but personnel property would still be a thing
As ginga seggusted a theoretically collapsing socialist would likely revert to a barter economy and have to go through the economic evolution all over again
Eventually a universally accepted item would become a defacto currency such as bullets in metro or precious/rare metal coins throughout most of history
It will be something that isnt easy to reproduce
Bottlecaps in Fallout because they are hard to counterfeit
As far as who gets what property that would be way messier and far more complicated
Well, it depends on the level of tech in society
Depending upon how terrible the fall is existing insitutions will adapt and take most of the property
Early tech or low tech it will be something that is nessesary for survival like water and food
Mid tech, some resource that is hard to reproduce, like gold or precious metals
And high tech, something intrinsicly useless.
If the insitutions dont survive then it would be a wild west free for all. Everyone grabbing what they can and the largest group probaly coming out ahead due to their numbers/material pool
Exactly, someone will have to make a common needed product and that will turn into the "currency"
Or just collectively known as bartering
Reminds me of one game I was working on solo. Idea was currency is reduced to batteries and fabrication gel.
SOmething very high tech. No currency or trading, everything was pure socialist.
System collapses, and too much dependency on the system meant many died out.
More than that but explaining the whole thing will take all day
Hope the above statements awnser your questions @Dunk Massive
If you are talking about a more pratical version then money usually exists in a society and the transition is more economic wrestling for resources than violent conflict
Unless your currency happens to go below the value of videogame currency
Or if that country end up in a situation where these two amounts of money are equal to each other
It may be the setting for the next purge movie
ah the almighty bolivar
(i assume)
Venezuela currency?
Yeap
So can I move to Venezuela and basically buy everyone and everything now they admit socialism has failed?
I can buy like 50k of bottlecaps from the local brewery before I go
I can afford about 6k cans of spaghetti, that would be better hey?
Remember that this country has been indoctrinated on anti western anti capitalist propaganda for decades
So you can definetly become the speghetti king for awhile
