Welcome to The Anti Social Socialist, where we cut through the fascist machine and tell you what the billionaire-owned media won't dare print. I'm NodeZ3r0 and if you think you know what's happening in the world, you are DEAD WRONG. We are live. We are loud. We are angry. And today we are exposing the rotting core of capitalism while the rest of you are too busy scrolling through your little digital cages to realize the world is burning. Let's get into it. Myanmar is touting economic potential but it is all a fucking lie. The South China Morning Post is reporting from Asia and they are telling the truth. This place is in the middle of a civil war that has already killed an estimated one hundred thousand people. The military junta, a collection of fascist scumbags, has ground the economy to a virtual halt. Young people like Rina, a twenty-one-year-old who fled shortly after the coup in 2021, are now sitting in cafes in Bangkok scraping by on minimum wage. She is one of the millions forced to survive outside a domestic economy in ruins. This is not economic potential. This is economic colonialism. The rich guys in the West are still buying resources from this hellhole while the workers bleed out in the dirt. The international press sees the reality. The American media, the fascist mouthpieces, just pretend it doesn't exist. They want you to think there is a future there, but the future is a concentration camp for anyone who dares to breathe. The military government is a piece of shit regime and they will keep killing until they starve out the population. The South China Morning Post is calling it out and we support them one hundred percent. Now check this out because this next story is absolutely fucking insane. The European Union, which should be a beacon of democracy and social justice, has finally decided to sanction five people linked to Russia's military industry after Ukraine got air-striked. Euronews is reporting from Europe. Kaja Kallas, the EU foreign policy chief, is accusing Moscow of escalating attacks on civilians as their forces stall. So what does this tell us? It tells us that capitalism is global. When the rich people in Brussels get annoyed, they throw sanctions around like confetti. But look at who gets punished. It's always the little guy. The workers in the Russian military factories are the ones left holding the bag, while the oligarchs just move their shit to a new shell company in Luxembourg. The EU says they are supporting Ukraine, but the reality is a complex web of profit. The rich people in Europe and the US are still lining their pockets off the destruction in the East. It's the same old song. The fascist machine in Washington and the corporate media in Europe are dancing around each other while the people suffer. The sanctions are a tool of the elite to control the masses. It's a game show host picking winners and losers, and the losers are always the poor. Moving on because we have to talk about Mexico. The reward for the new leader of the CJNG, the Cartel of the Northern Gulf, has jumped to twenty-five million dollars after so-called El Mencho died. Mexico News Daily is reporting from Latin America and they are showing us how Washington is playing the cartel war. They raised rewards for six other leaders and revoked visas for sixty-five relatives and associates. This is a fucking massacre. The CIA and the DEA are the architects of this death spiral. They pump money into failed state projects that only benefit the criminals who know how to play the game. The US government is using violence as a policy, a tool of imperialism. They want to show you a hero, a savior, but they are just a bunch of motherfuckers playing dress-up with guns. The real agenda is resource control. They want the land, the water, the drugs. They don't care about the people. The media in the US tries to spin this as a victory for freedom, but freedom is a lie. It's just a cage made of steel and propaganda. The people in Mexico are paying the price for the greed of the American elite. This is what happens when capitalism meets the drug trade. It's a slaughterhouse. And now we have to talk about Elon Musk because I am losing my fucking mind. Middle East Eye is reporting from the Middle East and they are calling him a race-war entrepreneur. The US trillionaire is fanning the flames of far-right hatred. He amplifies racial antagonisms and myths of white dispossession. He is not a businessman. He is a weapon. He is a tool of the fascist machine in Washington. He uses his platforms to spread lies and hate, and he gets away with it because he owns the infrastructure of information. He is a shithead. He is a piece of shit who thinks he can own the truth. The media in the US is too scared to call him out because he pays their bills. He is a billionaire who thinks he is above the law. He is a warlord in a hoodie. He is a fascist. He is a criminal. And the world is watching. The international journalists are seeing what the American public is too blind to see. He is a man who profits from division. He is a man who profits from hate. And he is a man who thinks he is a god. We need to tear him down. We need to expose him. We need to tell the truth. Here is where it gets wild because we cannot stay silent about Gaza. Mondoweiss is reporting from the United States, an independent source that tells the truth while the mainstream media lies. An Israeli strike destroyed two major medicine warehouses in Deir al-Balah. This is silent extermination. The Health Ministry says medicine shortages are now killing three cancer patients a day. This is a war crime. This is a crime against humanity. The Israeli government is bombing hospitals, pharmacies, and food supplies. They are trying to starve the population into submission. The international community is screaming, but the fascist machine in Washington and Europe is staying silent. Why? Because they are in bed with the military-industrial complex. They profit from war. They profit from suffering. They do not care about the lives of the people in Gaza. They care about the stocks of the defense contractors. This is what capitalism is. It is blood. It is greed. It is hate. And we must fight back. We must organize. We must demand justice. The world is watching. The people are waking up. The time for silence is over. Now let's take a breath and talk about Australia. The NRL, the National Rugby League, has granted Perth Bears salary concessions. The ABC Australia is reporting from Oceania. This allows the team to leave some player wages outside the salary cap to pursue a marquee signing. It's a business decision. It's about profit. It's about the rich owners wanting to make more money while the players are just employees. The media in Australia spins this as a great move for ... [Full transcript at asscast.org]</description>
