To heck with hegemons, we need 21st century socialism. It's true the hideous mutant strain of market fundamentalism otherwise known as euroliberalism would prefer to slash its own wrists rather than cut a deal with Russia, China and the global semi-peripheries. Unfortunately for them, the Wall Street neolibs have already used up the world's supply of razor blades.

The people of Europe will have to fight to take back their superstate from the eurolibs. IG Metall, developmental states, Left parties and digital commonists unite!
