people really do be mistaking how ideology works, capital shops for executors of its desires for returns, not ideology drives weird behavior. the politicians are fighting wars of attrition with capital armed with carrots (you’ll get important post if you fold on this1111) and sticks (we will primary you, or fuck your district/party if you don’t fold on this), see all politicians workshopping ineffective opposition sounding good, but doing nothing.

entity became profitable enterprise to contain arab independence/control oil flows/shadow kill commies? The ideology peddlers: here, take this evangelicals (ze rapture), take that western libs (judeochristian values), take muslim murder (for fashies), see the decolonial commune living in kibbutz (impressionable lefties). The underlying thing is the same with same goals for 60 years running, but people think “this time entity has finally done it”.
