Yanis Varoufakis on why the world needs a new Non-Aligned Movement 

Hmmm

😊😊

I believe this will either go down in history as one of the most important speeches ever given or be totally buried, so nobody may find it, as capital still reigns over the post-apocalyptic wasteland. I implore all comrades download it and distribute it.

Discern demagoguery, PLEASE....

i founded a "non-aligned" human rights movement 20 years ago. its called "equalism." equalism rejects the fascism, elitism, delusions, extremism, corruption, insanity and the corporate technological police-state now embraced by the global ruling elite on BOTH SIDES! but guess what? although i've suffeciently notified the ruling elite on the left and right of this new philosophy i've been completely ignored and margainalized by the fascist leaders now in control of BOTH SIDES! go figure. welcome to your future as the slaves to your global corporate masters.

Long live Cuba , and this lecture by yanks is brilliant ✊✊✊❤️

Viva Cuba hoy y siempre!

Cuba fk

Cuba is an authoritarian regime. Let’s not romanticize either

Haha, there is no hope in your country. You are slaves of your communist system.

yes yanis and progressives international and diem25 gives me hope, i grew up in England/Greece/Italy/Mexico/US can you comment in more length? would love to hear an individual chinese perspective

Cuba had a revolution that was stolen by the Castro family (the Chinese had theirs stolen by the so-called "CCP"). Dictatorship IS NOT a feature of communism. Communism should be hyper democratic rather than a crony system of family and friends getting the plum jobs and making themselves rich. George Orwell described it best, "some are more equal than others".

@@toi_techno yes...animal farm ..i read that when i was twelve ..i never recovered democracy is still a kracy ..rulership..have you read kojin karatani's, Isonomia..no rule..?

@@sbarros78 aka dude is slave of "we lie, we cheat and we steal"

yes i can't believe they aloud him to be inside the government. didn't last long tho.

​@@pakau don't be surprised it won't happen again. The level of propaganda against him in Greece is beyond belief, most Greeks nowadays unfortunately consider him as a joke.

You won't hear these kinds of things from Western politicians, as most Western countries are just corrupt oligarchies masquerading as liberal democracies.

@@cjmacq-vg8um I understand where your coming from. And agree with you entirely . The problem is , that the mainstream political parties have all been infiltrated . Even friends and colleagues of mine ,to the right in politics , are fed up with what’s going on. What we need in the uk and I said this many years ago is a complete political and economic overhaul of the system. Starting with PR. And not single vote transfer. It has to be a universal vote. It doesn’t matter where in the country you live or what constituency. Every vote for a party , results in the proportion of seats. Then we can establish new parties even for the centre right as well as the progress left. Then consign the failed ones to the political dustbin

@@robertheap2911 ... i'm an american and i haven't found anyone in any country who's satisfied with the direction humanity is going. yet, at the same time, they all participate in and even praise the corporate police-state that now rules their daily lives. everyone complains but no one is willing to "sacrifice" anything to make things any better. i founded equalism to give people a third choice rather than the fascism being offered, now, by the left and right. but i can't get a word in edgewise. i'm silenced and censored by the elite on both sides and their followers. humanity is headed for a dystpoian future. its, in fact, already there. i see little hope for my species.

@@cjmacq-vg8um I’m English, your American, but the problem we face , along with rest of Europe and most of the world is the same. I follow what goes on in the USA. And i particularly follow the likes of Chris Hedges and Richard D Wolff. Reading between the lines they say that the American economy and the colonial foreign policy is going to come crashing down . And in the UK , this current conservative government is the worst we’ve had ever. They have moved so far to the right, behaving like a fascist dictatorship. But what has happened here now is a massive resurgence in Trade Union power and nearly all the people ( left and right) are supporting them, to the dismay of the Tory government. Both , Richard Wolff and Chris Hedges have said this is the way for forward for Americans too. I wish you well and good luck 🤞🙌

@@robertheap2911 ... yes, the whole world suffers from the same capitalist gangsterism. humanity has been ruled by gangsters for over 6000 years. regimes that call themselves "socialist" aren't socialist. they're fascist just like the capitalist countries. my question is - how many more times is humanity going to repeat the same mistakes and expect different results? just how much longer is humanity going to play this rigged game of divide and conquer the ruling elite play to maintain its corrupt power over us ALL? equalism exposes and REJECTS this rigged divide-and-conquer game. we equalists say - its time to do things differently because what we've been doing over the last 6000 years HAS FAILED in every possible way.

How would you define a thriving country if Cuba is among them?

​@@aarnehalen1686less infant mortality than the richest country on earth

@@ver4135 LMAO

Cuba. Where surgeons literally moonlight as taxi drivers because they make more money as taxi drivers than performing surgery. Cuba. Where experienced physicians make $80 per month. Cuba. Where physicians who practice abroad have to send their foreign earnings BACK to the Cuban government - even when not in their home country, they can't retain the wealth they earn. There’s a Cuban saying: “We live like poor people, but we die like rich people.” Well, in a country where you don't have political freedom or cars (per capita car ownership per 1000 people in Cuba: 67; per capita car ownership per 1000 people in USA: 908), of course you're going to be more proud of how you get to DIE than how you get to live. "Using the ratios found for other countries, corrections were proposed to the statistics [infant mortality] published by the Cuban government: instead of 5.79 per 1000 births, the rate stands between 7.45 and 11.16 per 1000 births." Source: Cuban infant mortality and longevity: health care or repression? Health Policy and Planning, Volume 33, Issue 6, July 2018, Pages 755-757,

Viva indeed, and down with its autocratic, antidemocratic, repressive regime.

Cuba is a totalitarian regime which oppresses their citizens

Si!

"international workers" as if the working class people from Italy give a shit about workers in Pakistan or Brazil. or Greek working class gives a shit about Turkish working class. this is the nonsense about socialism and why fascism/nazism from an economic standpoint makes more sense to implement in a country. a pro-workers government in a country should ONLY care about the workers of its country. nothing else. economics isn't the only thing that matters anyways. local culture and traditions are also important in a county's society. it is part of a country's identity and heritage.

@@LevisH21 Too bad you're so poorly informed about international worker cooperations. Must be why you're wallowing in fascist fantasies and believe workers have no common interests across borders: I doubt your fantasy features you near/at the bottom of slaves and cannon fodder. Well, if business can make German union workers "compete" with Chinese wage-slaves in a race to the bottom, the opposite force of global cooperation can/must act too. Welcome to Diem25.

@@37Dionysos good luck your socialist fantasies as well. it also is so hilarious that supposed socialist countries of the world like China and Vietnam have willingly abandoned socialism in order to become essentially state capitalist countries. and you should also explain why Cuba which is another socialist country trades goods/services with capitalist countries. this should have been a blasphemy for a serious socialist to even consider doing business with capitalist countries. it's complete hypocrisy. just like how a conservative politician might say he is against gay marriage or gay rights but is hilariously cought himself having sex with a gay prostitute in some hotel room in Budapest or Prague. lol 🤣

@@LevisH21 Lots of socialist countries trade with capitalists, many are threatened like Cuba or caused to crash as in Central/South America due to CIA arm-twisting (so they must be a "threat" to somebody), and both China nor Vietnam retain all kinds of features that Western fascists call socialist. Now you can see how the cartoons that feed you actually lead you away from reality. What's that tell ya? Enjoy your minimum wage and your weekend: thank a socialist for both.

@@37Dionysos you should bloody thank me because I pay taxes in order for lazy fucks like yourself to live on welfare checks like a parasite. I just love the fact you accuse me of somehow supporting the CIA. and hilarious that the CIA is the boogyman of all socialists when the KGB or any other socialist secret service organization have done just as many crimes against humanity as the CIA. try harder

Great speech but you moved to Netherlands for work when he closed the banks in Greece right? Haha

@@sbarros78 I moved to the Netherlands because the economic crisis fucked Spain in the ass and because my mother is from there. I don't know what you're tryng to insinuate

@@sbarros78 Because ECB closed the banks off Greece and there is a lawsuit against it. But you are pusi and you have not DNA of Greeks ancient mtfks (leonidas, kolokotronis) etc.

​@@sbarros78 Are you talking about the Europeans and what Great Britain did to Greece? Janis Varoufakis was the ex finance minister in that time. He didn't want to sign the bail out The troika is a term used to refer to the single decision group created by three entities, the European Commission (EC), the European Central Bank (ECB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). It was formed in the aftermath of the European debt crisis and this actually European Union in disguised as an ad hoc authority with a mandate to manage the bailouts of Cyprus, Greece, Ireland and Portugal, in the aftermath of their prospective insolvency caused by the world financial crisis of 2007-2008. Janis Varoufakis couldn't fight along with the big bullies from the West.

I noticed that too. Worrying...🤔

What time did this happen?

It’s not a difficult concept. Organising human society to produce the goods and services we need for the benefit of all rather than the few that for the last 40 years have enacted the biggest transfer of wealth and power up to themselves from ordinary people. It’s pretty much how humans cooperatively engaged for millennia. Capitalism has been a relatively short experiment, neoliberalism even shorter and much more damaging, as Yano’s described in his speech. What’s your alternative solution (genuine question)?

I am skeptical of him being a tankie because he just praised Cuba and China basically, two totalitarian hellholes with barely any rights or freedom , actually existing socialism isn't a thing.

@@_Nyx_Raven_ Right... Let's fall for red scare propaganda and decry any real and moderately successful attempt at socialism that actually achieved something, getting essentially stuck in a continuation of the capitalist dystopia potentially into total annihilation while we wait for the perfect fairytale socialism that's about to happen at any moment.

@@tasfa10 liberal democracies have achieved more than any previous or current "actual existing socialism" , I am not talking about perfectionism here, I am talking bare minimum, democratic worker control and ownership of the means of production (1 worker, 1 share, 1 vote) and adherence to basic human rights and international law, (like not doing a genocide which many "actually existing socialist" countries have done) basic freedoms are and weren't guaranteed like freedom of assembly and free speech, they also lacked and still lack any form of democratic representation with free and fair elections (which should be a bare minimum for a liberal society let alone a socialist one, which should require more than that including banning lobbying and improving democracy with ranked choice voting more referendums etc etc which none have done and living in these countries is worse than living in America or EU liberal democracies) don't get me started on the meager wages they are being paid, a very strong oligarchy stronger than even some liberal democracies (which again by socialist standards you shouldn't have an oligarchy at all and atleast pay livable wages , heck even some liberal democracies pay somewhat livable wages, shouldn't we go beyond that and actually redistribute wealth, instead of pretending everything is fine and that "actually existing socialism" isn't worse in every metric compared to social democratic liberal democracies and in some cases even centre-right lead liberal democracies.

@@_Nyx_Raven_ I guess if you ignore all the negatives and market externalities.

@@Redactedlllllllllllll I was doing a comparison there, in absolute terms both "actually existing socialism" and liberal democracies and fascist countries all suck , but the devil lies in the details, in comparison , life under liberal democracies is superior to "actually existing socialist countries" and fascist countries, if we compare fascist countries to "actually existing socialist countries " we don't see many inherent differences thus I would say its rational to call totalitarian regimes such as north Korea, Cuba, vietnam, soviet union, Laos, historical "communist" and contemporary China, etc etc as fascist.

should it be taken as a direct message to the cuban regime then? I think it should, if he’s consequent with what he says

Brilliant comment

Only if the sheep 🐑 wake. We cannot do anything about it. This is not my fight, your fight, his fight, or her fight. It's all of our fight.

We are all huge energy hogs. Live simply so that others might simply live, as Ghandi once said, has a new, additional meaning in this context. We cannot change the world with a “better” system if the vast majority of us are not aware and humble. Reminds me of another saying, “be wise as serpents and gentle as doves.”
