Well, I am actually not direct enough here. As all her blog while being energy focused is made to wash out capitalists and she will never write something they won't really like.

Whole her posts are like sex in a hammock, attempt to somehow attach extremely outdated Austrian approach to non scientific and even more outdated god worshipping (with human sins and all!) with energy collapse doom on top of it all.

Gail now openly publish truly fascist proclamations

Even if we could somehow work around COVID-19’s problems, we can still expect to have other pandemic problems. The problem with epidemics has existed as long as humans have inhabited the earth. Antibiotics and other products of the fossil fuel age have allowed a temporary reprieve from some types of epidemics, but the overall problem has not disappeared. Our attention is toward COVID-19, but there are many other kinds of plant and animal epidemics we are facing.

Idea to view epidemic of most probably lab greated virus as some king of inevitable and uncurable natural thing is truly fascist statement. And fully ignoring lack of protective equiopment, factories and measures, proper health system and proper science.

And it is bright future ahead

If a world economy is organized as a group of individual economies, with loose links to other economies, there are several advantages:

Epidemics become less of a problem.

How so?

Each economy has more control over its own future. It can create its own financial system if it desires. It can decide who owns what. It can decree that wages will be very equal, or not so equal.

Wow, just need to make proper decree to kill inequality.

If population rises relative to resources in one economy, or if weather/climate takes a turn for the worse, that particular economy can collapse without the rest of the world’s economy collapsing. After a rest period, forests can regrow and soil fertility can improve, allowing a new start later.

Nice fascist idea. Just kill the fucking bastards, they have wrong nation.

The economy is a self-organizing system. If there really is the potential for some parts of the world economic system to be saved, while others are lost, I expect that the self-organizing nature of the system will work in this direction.

We just need to rely to invisible market hand. Yes, it is from same folk stories as invisible man on the clouds.

There are clearly parts of the world economy that are not working:

• World population is way too high, relative to resources.
• Wage and wealth disparity is too great.
• Too much of income is going to the financial system, healthcare, education, entertainment, and travel.

Again maltusian approach. And note - you no longer need any healthcare and education (travel and entertainment go as company - you do not need them anyway in worker camp) as Gail owners do not like to have them for their slaves.

Most intergovernmental organizations, such as the United Nations and European Union, will disappear. Many governments of countries may disappear, as well. Some may be overthrown.

So, we need bunch of fascist states around.

Big cities will likely become problematic in each of these locations, and populations will fall. Alaska and other very cold places may not be able to continue as part of the core, either.

Invinsible hand always brings nice life, remember it!

The making of physical goods will experience a major setback, starting immediately. Many supply chains are already broken. Medicines made in India and China are likely to start disappearing. Automobile manufacturing will depend on individual countries setting up their own manufacturing supply chains if the making of automobiles is to continue.

Finally, good life under capitalism. Or not?

The medical system will suffer a major setback from COVID-19 because no one will want to come to see their regular physician any more, for fear of catching the disease. Education will likely become primarily the responsibility of families, with television or the internet perhaps providing some support. Universities will wither away.

And this soundly like direct citation from Hitler position on organizing colonies.

We seem to be reaching the limit of making our current global economic system work any longer. The only hope of partial salvation would seem to be if core parts of the world economy can be made to work in a more separate fashion for at least a few more years. In fact, oil and other fossil fuel production may continue, but for each country’s own use, with very limited trade.

So, good life ahead!

Of course, everyone need to note that Gail is doom and gloom author for years. But she is also extreme right author that had her posts transformed last pair of years into almost direct fascist state declarations written mostly for petty bourgeoisie.

I cut my participation on that site to almost nothing. Now I read commenters over there advocating full reopening of the economy and digging mass graves also, I would assume. That seems to be the mainstream Republican line now - just open back up and step over the dead on our return to wage-prosperity. BTW, I wonder how much money the 'reopen' pundits, who incidentally, hardly ever need to leave filtered, hermetically sealed studios, have in comparison to the average American worker.

This is the time take it courageously @kurt @vitaliy_kiselev

Wanna keep the shit chatting or make something? It’s grate time for a change isn it?

I feel it can come from Latin America this time. We have people, crashed hopes, bad decisions and real hungry humans for knowledge and food. Asia is to crowded and organized for controling it. Africa is killing them self and resolving chinas inversion.

Peru has second biggest gold mine in world.

Crash that shit, buy guns get attention, educate, wait to ideological virus to spread, simple ideas are smaller than virus RNA, and you know it can cause bigger damage, or benefit depend where are you at.

@endotoxic....lol...been taking a few recreational substances while locked up ?

....ja ja ja.... Military's of the world are divided into factions. Some factions might be portrayed as good, and others as evil mfk'ers. But the good guys exist. In every country. The elites aren't one big monolithic force. They're divided and vulnerable. Income disparity is one of the biggest issues affecting the survival of our planet. The tipping force in all revolutions is when the military sides with the people.

@endotoxic

You really need to calm down and start to think using grey cells.

If you aren't afraid to do something - go and do it, just never complain after this.

For example, if people in rich countries rarely dress up to attend meetings of various kinds, there is much less of a market for dressy clothing. Many people in poor countries make their living manufacturing this type of clothing. With the loss of these sales, workers suddenly found themselves with much reduced income. Poor countries generally do not have good safety nets to provide food for those who are out of work. As a result, the diets of people subject to loss of income became inadequate, leading to greater vulnerability to disease. If the situation continues, some may even die of starvation.

So, people in rich country who bough clothing using freshly printed money are godsent to poor people who provided them real goods, and another poor people who produced food and exchanged food to another clothing. And what will happen if parasite exploiters will vanish? Of course everyone will die in pain, how fascist prostitute Geil can think otherwise? Because she is part of this rotten system and she is afraid.

New round of Malthusian and openly pro death fascist diatribes

Because of limited resources, we may encounter something similar to the “empty shelf” problem in the grocery stores. We may find that only limited doses of vaccine are available because too many doses were accidentally ruined in production. Or, not enough of the right reagents were available. Or, more doses are needed in the country where the vaccine is manufactured, leaving less for use elsewhere. Or, there is a war in a country integral to vaccine supply lines, interfering with production.

Ultra libertarian fascist here describe to you her dream and you should be very afraid of it.

Getting adequate vitamin D through sun exposure, eating of foods that are high in vitamin D and/or supplementation. Dark skinned people living away from the equator are especially at risk for inadequate vitamin D.

Concentrated Vitamin D with oil capsules is around 100x cheaper than any foods. And btw it is almost impossible to restore Vitamine D with foods (and it will take months at best!), and equally impossible to do so with sun exposure in most real places.

Because of energy constraints, we likely cannot expect to keep heating and cooling our buildings as much in the future. We will need to dress more for outdoor temperatures, indoors.

See? This guys do not want feudalism, they want barbarian times.
