"I'm moving after living 6 years in a neighborhood full of "Nahel". If I hadn't had this opportunity to move, I don't think I would have survived another 6 months in this hellhole. Living with a lump in our stomachs, having the door of our residence rammed open, having to look down and use our keys as a weapon in case every time we come home, seeing them pee 3m away from our entrance , enduring the late-night screams and kicking soccer balls against our studio wall, being frustrated with the inaction of the police while those assholes literally wrote their drug prices on our wall... My precarious situation would have been 1000 times more bearable without "Nahel".

The worst thing is that 2 years ago, I would have defended them (I confess to having been on the left for years and I regret it bitterly). But it went too far. Knowing that nobody, and especially not the left, would have shed a tear for me if "Nahel" had pushed me to the limit, broke me. Knowing that a good part of France would consider me the incarnation of the antichrist to think that makes me nauseous. Minors or not, these people (I even find it difficult to continue to call them that) are incompatible with the way of life of those who simply want to live in peace. They only know how to destroy, harass and be violent. I didn't shed a single tear for Nahel, and I won't shed any for potential future "victims"."

...

"Nahel" is the name of the little fuck that got shot by the cop, event which triggered the current riots.

The USSR largely failed because of oil price collapse, not because of "internal economic issues."

https://www.rbth.com/history/331825-saudi-arabia-oil-crisis-ussr-collapse

>The Saudi sheiks prospered and quickly gained enormous wealth. This situation was also highly beneficial for the USSR, which increased its oil and natural gas extraction and quickly became one of the world’s leading oil and gas producers: oil and gas income now made up more than half of the national income. Meanwhile, in the US, unemployment rates doubled, and GDP dropped by 6%. But the United States was preparing a counter move by persuading Saudia Arabia to act in US interests. How the US won the Cold War ... Shortly after that in 1986, William Casey, then Director of the US Central Intelligence Agency, went to Saudi Arabia. According to Ronald Reagan’s national security adviser Richard Allen, Casey negotiated with King Fahd what was to occur next. For the six previous years, the Saudi government has been restraining oil prices, sharply decreasing their petroleum extraction; but after Casey returned, in September 1985, Saudi Arabia started rapidly increasing its extraction – even though the prices were still low! Swift drop In four months, Saudi extraction rose from two million to 10 million barrels a day, and prices plummeted from $32 a barrel to $10. For the USSR’s economy - already accustomed to exorbitant incomes from its oil, this was a death blow. in 1986 alone, the USSR lost more than $20 billion (approximately 7.5% of the USSR’s annual income), and it already had a budget deficit.

That's the actual reason

"collectivism always fail"

The army is pretty collectivist, in fact it's bordering on a communist regime when you think about it; everybody dressed the same, same rules for everybody, the collective before the individual, with a rigid vertical hierarchy aka chain of command, finding a way to earn a living isn't part of daily life, daily life is already earning you a living

I'm talking about how the army is traditionally organized, not the woke aberration it has become

When does collectivism or hyper collectivism fail? When it runs out of resources to sustain itself, typically. And it's also true for the polar opposite organizations/systems, as in hyper individualistic; when there's no food on the table everybody loses his shit, normal. Same goes for any given society/organization.

See lybia under gaddafi? It was a crossover between a military dictatorship, a socialist utopia, and an islamic caliphate. Pretty fucking collectivist.

It was pissing oil and stacking gold everyday, it could have lasted like that for hundreds of years. If it failed it's not because of the system itself, it's because of a massive regime change operation, a coup.

I see I see. Nation socialism is sounding more ideal. It could possibly also just a good stepping stone to restore a republic.
