    Similar to the likes of Owen Jones. They focus on the easy issues which they do a really good job with. But as soon as something comes along that threatens to disrupt the status quo then, by their deeds shall you know them.

    Novara has publicly disgraced itself on multiple occasions. You can find plenty of dunkings of their credentials.

    Ash friends with Zionists, Bastini heavily involved in the Corbyn character assassination.

    Spread the good word. Everyone I tell is blown away and comes back to me later to thank me.

    It's just really handy for correcting autocorrect typos.

    The only time I see this term being used it when Trotskyists run out of road and have nothing else to say. Then they apply it incorrectly as a mindless slur. I don't see it applying to the Inside China Business guy. I don't know what you call him, a religious nut? A right winger?

    A couple of things come to mind with this. Firstly, this reshoring has required a colossal subvention by the state. The money printer can currently go brr all day long, but if every reshoring that was needed required such intervention then this would not be feasible, especially considering the balancing act that's currently needed to counter inflation. Dedollarisation that's continuing apace further threatens this model. Already we have Trump recently threatening states that plan to trade in non-dollar currencies.

    The reason for the deindustrialisation in the first place has not gone away. The inevitable march towards the export of finance capital being of primary importance to the imperialist state will continue. This seems to be a panicky flagship example. Root causes have not been addressed, and won't be.

    But at the same time I do take your point that we're probably overstating the situation. I hope not by much.

    Ten years before I saw the light of morning A comradeship of heroes was laid From every corner of the world came sailing The Fifth International Brigade They came to stand beside the Spanish people To try and stem the rising fascist tide Franco's allies were the powerful and wealthy Frank Ryan's men came from the other side Even the olives were bleeding As the battle for Madrid it thundered on Truth and love against the force of evil Brotherhood against the fascist clan Viva la Quinta Brigada "No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight "Adelante" is the cry around the hillside Let us all remember them tonight Bob Hilliard was a Church of Ireland pastor Form Killarney across the Pyrenees he came From Derry came a brave young Christian Brother Side by side they fought and died in Spain Tommy Woods age seventeen died in Cordoba With Na Fianna he learned to hold his gun From Dublin to the Villa del Rio Where he fought and died beneath the blazing sun Viva la Quinta Brigada "No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight "Adelante" is the cry around the hillside Let us all remember them tonight Many Irishmen heard the call of Franco Joined Hitler and Mussolini too Propaganda from the pulpit and newspapers Helped O'Duffy to enlist his crew The word came from Maynooth, "support the Nazis" The men of cloth failed again When the Bishops blessed the Blueshirts in Dun Laoghaire As they sailed beneath the swastika to Spain Viva la Quinta Brigada "No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight "Adelante" is the cry around the hillside Let us all remember them tonight This song is a tribute to Frank Ryan Kit Conway and Dinny Coady too Peter Daly, Charlie Regan and Hugh Bonar Though many died I can but name a few Danny Boyle, Blaser-Brown and Charlie Donnelly Liam Tumilson and Jim Straney from the Falls Jack Nalty, Tommy Patton and Frank Conroy Jim Foley, Tony Fox and Dick O'Neill Viva la Quinta Brigada "No Pasaran", the pledge that made them fight "Adelante" is the cry around the hillside Let us all remember them tonight

    Inspired by [this.](https://lemmygrad.ml/post/5229476/4766287) I've been trying to remember a song for months now. It had a really well made animated video, probably sort of in the style of *Cuphead*. I seem to recall a cartoon wolf in it. The theme of the song was about this unspecified thing that was "gonna to make you go boom!" and stuff like that. The video was the really memorable part, the song itself not so much, which makes it all the harder to google for. I think it was French. "It's gonna make you... do x y z"... sorry I don't have much more.

    I can't find any reliable source of numbers. From before the invasion I saw Al Jazeera claiming 900 members of Azov, since then they've been wiped out a number of times, like at Mariupol. And then they keep showing up again and again like the Moe/Barney meme.

    Some speculation on the USA's intentions with its overly large force deployed to the ME. tl;dr It's too big to be just for Hamas. Lebanon is too difficult, Hezbollah would demolish Israel. Iran too awkward... But with Israeli bombing attacks on the airports of Aleppo and Damascus and its *pre-war* like warnings to its settlers, there seems to be good indications that Syria is again the target. >**The neo-conservative lunatics in the White House may well think that they now have a chance to eliminate Russia's presence in the Middle East.** >**They will think of this as a revenge for their loss of the the war in Ukraine. They also believe that it will prevent, or compensate for, their geopolitical defeat in Gaza.**
