Comment on Former Valve economist speaks on Techno-Feudalismparent

Interesting that you refer to him as the "Former Valve economist" rather than the Finance Minister of Greece

He was the Finance Minister of Greece for barely 5 months.

or the guy who stood up to the EU

What exactly he did acomplish, again?

Tank man stood up to China, he may not have accomplished anything, but we remember him and what he did had value.

So standing up to the EU in and of itself it plenty.

If "tank man" was Iraqi, he'd be a pancake under a US tank. In reality, what the tank driver did had value.

Watching US police line up to execute unarmed people on a regular/daily basis in broad daylight helps me appreciate the restraint and respect for human life the tank drivers showed.

well, among other things, he had absurd yet awesome videos made about him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Afl9WFGJE0M
