Hun, your slavish devotion to optics are shackles. Worse, you’re policing your peers, prioritizing the abstract appeal of your optics to a hypothetical other over their reality anchored and literal praxis.

Kill the cop in your head, babe. We’ll be over here when you’re ready.

Broken clocks and all that - but this one only has one hand working at this point. We’re always counting down to midnight, for some reason.

The attack was claimed by ISIS-K - a foreign fighter offshoot/offbrand. Funny thing is that ISIS-K fighters were getting lifts from American chanook helicopters in Afghanistan and is largely made up of US assets and/or people formerly trained by the US in Afghanistan.

Lots points to it being a CIA asset, tldr. They’re a dirty army that can be used to keep an area distabilised or prevent other geopolitical powers from building infrastructure/influence (the nutshell purpose of ISIS-K, particularly in Afghanistan to prevent pipelines being built).

They had the inside scoop on an attack outside any usual operating theatre by a group with tangible links to US cooperation/orientation? No kidding.

Praise Rand. So wise.

Actually, as a fun little aside, can you explain to me what you think Fascism is?

People, Palestinians - primary sources - post footage they film on the ground and send out via TikTok et al - that’s raw footage. Like I’m still lost on what were you trying to say with that drone comment.

Yeah, they’re both colonies. Australia was the blueprint for Apartheid. I speak as an Australian - don’t trust these snakes. Penny Wong is an avowed ally to the Zionist project.

?

Just so we’re on the same page here - what exactly do you think raw footage means?

It’s raw footage, homie.

Thank God, an enlightened centrist! What knowledge can you throw down to us critically engaged peasants from the top of the horseshoe??? We’re so hungry as a result of communism or something

The Nazis tainted everything they touched, I don’t see why this should be any different. And yes, the comparison is apt.

Very few things in life are black and white - this is.

You either support genocide or you don’t. You either support an increasingly fascistic apartheid ethnostate or you don’t. Lines are notoriously difficult to draw but they’re extremely clear cut here.

Israel and the Zionist project gains legitimacy by proximity to genuinely honorable people like the ones you brought up - it’s rhetorical propaganda.

I appreciate I’m taking a strong stance in my wording here but for gods sake, man - look at the whole thing. A dying empire is dusting off old world colonialism, complete with unabashed ethnic cleansing and the entire Western world is to-the-hilt complicit. History and systemic decline is being written. I don’t consider my language an overreaction - at all.

Big ups to Jonno. Only person I’ve ever actually seen engaging in the community and he’s been amongst it for years.

And there it is - the holocaust, an all-purpose shield and sword.

I stand by my statement and I doubt anyone honored via that program would endorse Israel today.

A badge of honor.

To be held in esteem by Israel - at any point in its history - is a deep stain on any reputation to put it mildly. Anyone with humanity is an enemy to fascists and ethnostates.

This is madness and incompetence.

Amen. War is a total systemic failure.

I dunno - mounting evidence seems to point to the hypothesis a few less imperialists wouldn’t hurt.

Noooo, the USA? Flouting international law? Say it isn’t so!

No shit - we’ve had smoking guns for years. Add it to the pile or better yet, hold it and growl while we ask politely for change.

That headline is art.

They’re committing a mask-off genocide after 75 years of ethnic cleansing - all the while bombing and assassinating foreign citizens on foreign, sovereign soil.

Tell me how any country on earth would like that.

Free Palestine, y’all. Liberation for all.
