What do the Ukraine war, the aggressive foreign policy of imperialist and neoliberal states, unconditional basic income, and the humiliation of East Germans have in common? At first glance: nothing. Only upon a second look (and through reading these three essays) does it become clear: the issues addressed have a single origin; they are rooted in the societal character and in the neoliberal modernizations of the system that has been expansively working for a century and a half to subjugate the entire world commercially and ideologically. Poldrack provides evidence in three areas, examining the superstructure and how influence is exerted on it to achieve political and economic goals. Along the way, it is also confirmed what we have known since Helmut Kohl: everything is interconnected.
