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.

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.

except the alchemists actually strived to move towards more reliable and accurate science

Forgive if I’m misunderstanding, but wouldn’t that be chemists striving toward reliable and accurate science? Sovcits being alchemists or petty magi is a pretty great comparison, honestly.

Milei is a Thatcherite.

I anticipate things are going to get ugly in Argentina… horrible direction to see.

If this weren’t a global moment of systemic realization - sure. From a cynical, “always bet on the null” perspective, sure, but I can’t agree it boils down to drama.

Something deeper is happening. I’m seeing people who I know for certain wouldn’t know the context of/around settler-colonialism start to synthesize that information into their own national and local contexts.

Something is happening. People are learning - I don’t think the genie is going back in the bottle. Thank god. All that’s left is for people to learn how simple individual praxis can be to start doing and suddenly we’re looking at something very, very wide.

Inefficient. Utilise your time to provide maximum benefit for the biosphere before you return to it. Nature is not a solo juggernaut - it needs us to help to our part.

Brother, that’s not how we talk to people. Everyone here is treated like people and respected for their personhood. This isn’t a theatre for bigoted nonsense - there’s other platforms available if you want to attack people and get that out of your system.

Show people respect or leave people alone - but don’t be like that.
