Welcome to The Anti Social Socialist, I am NodeZ3r0, and today we tear the fascist machine apart piece by fucking piece. This is punk rock anti-fascist radio, and we are done playing nice with the game show host of the free world. Let’s get into the meat. France 24 is reporting, and they are exposing the real agenda behind Marco Rubio’s pathetic little tour. The guy, a total shithead if there ever was one, promised the Gulf states that Washington would protect their interests as they hammer out a final settlement of the Middle East war. He’s on a regional tour to reassure these oil-rich puppets, right? The Gulf states were hammered by Tehran's missiles and drones, their oil and gas shipments cut off by an Iranian blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, and instead of calling out the US for the aggression, Rubio is there to reassure them. Reassure who? Reassure the fascist machine that it can still play the hero while the world burns. The US government is using its nuclear arsenal and economic sanctions to bully a sovereign nation into submission, and now they are trying to paint themselves as the peacekeepers. It is a lie. It is bullshit. They want the Gulf states to feel safe so they will keep pumping oil for the capitalist beast, while the US military prepares for the next war. This is not about peace, it is about control. This is about the US empire maintaining its grip on the Middle East resources. The US government is the bad guy, plain and simple. Moving on, now check this out because this one hits the home of the oppressed right in the gut. Common Dreams is reporting a story that proves the US Congress is still a fascist machine, even with a few token Democrats trying to look good. CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights group, welcomed Amendment Number Two to the Fiscal Year Two Thousand Twenty-Seven National Defense Authorization Act. This amendment, submitted by Representatives Thomas Massie, Ro Khanna, Jim McGovern, Jesus Garcia, and Rashida Tlaib, would strike Section Two Nineteen, formerly Section Two Twenty-Four, the so-called "United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative." Let’s break this down for you, you simpleton. This initiative would create a new mechanism to integrate US military and intelligence agencies with their Israeli counterparts. They are trying to merge the US military with the Israeli military, a union that would give the US direct access to Israeli surveillance technology and intelligence on Palestinians. The amendment would strike this provision, but the fascist machine in Congress is fighting tooth and nail to keep it alive. Why? Because they want to keep the US military entangled in the Israeli war machine, keeping the Palestinian people under siege. The CAIR group is fighting for Muslim civil rights, but they are being ignored by the two-party fascist machine. This is about control. This is about the US empire maintaining its grip on the Middle East resources, and they will do anything to keep the status quo. Now, let’s talk about the UK doctors. They rejected the IHRA definition of antisemitism, and why? Because it was being used to silence them. The British Medical Association voted to drop the controversial definition over free-speech concerns. During Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, the UK doctors are backing protections for staff speaking on Palestine. This is a direct challenge to the fascist machine in the West. They are saying enough is enough, we are not going to be silenced by the US government's propaganda. They are speaking the truth about the war in Gaza, and they are being punished for it. This is what happens when you try to speak the truth in a fascist society. You get silenced, you get attacked, you get demonized. This is the reality of life in the West, and it is time to wake up. Let's shift gears, because the global south is not just a victim, they are fighting back. The South China Morning Post is reporting that Chinese internet giants are moving beyond software and into semiconductor design. Kuaishou, the short video giant, has a chip spin-off called TranStreams that raised an undisclosed amount in a Series A+ financing round led by QF Capital. This is a bold move by China to break free from US export controls. The US is trying to strangle China's tech sector, but China is adapting, creating its own chips, its own infrastructure. This is the future of the global south, where nations are breaking free from the US empire's grip. The US is trying to maintain its hegemony, but the global south is waking up. They are building their own infrastructure, their own economy, their own future. This is the reality of the global south, and it is a reality that the US government is trying to ignore. Over in Argentina, Jesica Cirio's dollar videos are rocking the corruption case against ex-Buenos Aires Province official Martín Insaurralde. Images of the model displaying stacks of cash in the home she once shared with the veteran Kirchnerite politician have put the courts’ corruption file back on center stage. Authorities are seeking to determine whether the former official's assets can be explained by his declared income. This is the reality of corruption in the global south. The US government is trying to use these corruption cases to destabilize these nations, to keep them weak, to keep them dependent on the US empire. But the global south is waking up. They are fighting back, exposing the corruption, demanding accountability. This is the reality of the global south, and it is a reality that the US government is trying to ignore. The Daily Maverick SA is reporting that South Africa's R12.5-billion border modernisation programme aims to boost trade and regional integration, but infrastructure alone cannot unlock economic opportunity. Businesses must navigate increasingly complex immigration and visa requirements if they want to move the skilled people needed to make cross-border trade work. This is a stark reminder that the US government's immigration policies are a tool of control, designed to keep the global south weak and dependent. But the global south is waking up. They are building their own economies, their own trade networks, their own future. This is the reality of the global south, and it is a reality that the US government is trying to ignore. And then we have the ABC Australia, reporting that t... [Full transcript at asscast.org]</description>
