Covid-19 Pandemic, assault on the Capitol in Washington: two expressions of the intensification of capitalist decomposition

The year 2021 has only just begun, but it was immediately marked by a new event of historic significance: the assault on the Capitol by fanatical Trumpist hordes. These two events are not separated from each other.
