Guerrilla Capitalism

Lately I am doing most of my blogging from my new site Guerrilla-Capitalism.com

The core mission of GuerrillaCap is to explore how small  & medium sized, independent businesses can compete in an age of increasing consolidation and disruption. You’re not only competing against Google, Amazon, Facebook you’re also competing against the phenomenons of  AI, automation, economies of scale and large-scale financial repression.

As is instinctive after events like this, the world now grapples with meaning. After the profound sadness and grief around last night’s events in Paris, I am now mired in nausea at the reactionary attempts to shoehorn this into one ideological container or another, whether it be: gun control, Islamophobia, NWO False Flags, or “Those French had had it coming”.
