So many people back home who've been smeared thoroughly as being poor because of their own weakness or vices who absolutely could be like this awesome guy if only they had the opportunity. So many people robbed of the opportunity to excel and contribute to humanity's advance held back because less than 0.1% of the population have to have all the wealth and to keep people down. Every poverty stricken addict, every homeless person, every hopeless poverty stricken drunk, every angry starving person, every victim of natural disasters; these people are all victims of injustice by a self destructive system that cons the people mere steps above these victims into waiting just a little longer, just another presidential term, just another four more years, just a little wee bit longer, telling them it'll all be okay soon, and if it just gives the appearance of leveling off, then this is the new reality and people are crazy for thinking it could be better; a system that gaslights people into accepting life as a disposable battery for the ultra wealthy. We smear third world countries and yet there are so many third world countries that offer infinitely more for their people than ours does; we watch as so many more of our people, considered expendable, get expended. How many people back home could've been phd holders? How many people back home could've become our greatest scientists? The addict who can barely stand up, addicted because life is miserable and he has no hope for a future, could've been one of our country's brightest. Where is our Mao?

Every accusation is a confession EDIT: Oh, and as per one of the replies on this twitter page, the Israeli making this claim was born and raised in America but now larps as someone native to occupied Palestine.

    He saw someone he thought was a random guy standing outside his car window and his first thought was 'I should shoot this person'?

    I get why they were on lookout, but you still can't shoot random people you think may be the dangerous individual you had in mind, and even the person they had in mind (as far as I can tell from the article), it doesn't sound like they were 100% on whether he was out to harm them or not.

    What's gotten into people?

    Apparently Israel retaliated for Iran's attacks....by bombing an orphanage in Gaza and apartment buildings in Lebanon, and the media of course is as willfully blind as ever

    I expect reactionaries to celebrate the mass killing of foreign civilians, but it's utterly repulsive every time I see libs arguing this point. When you compare Iran and Russia's efforts, and you see the either non-existent or exceedingly low civilian body counts, it puts it into sharp perspective how easily we could've avoided the shockingly high civilian deaths in the countries we invaded.

    Honestly seeing how modern Israelis are reacting makes me understand what Germans were really like back then; On the one hand Israelis feign ignorance and say most or every photo or video of violence coming out of Gaza is Pallywood, and on the other hand they openly admit to one another that they have zero care for the lives of Gazans and even wish them all dead (Israeli media is insanity).

    I know the German populace were aware of what was happening in the concentration camps, but I would've assumed they just didn't care; now though, extrapolating from what I'm seeing with Israelis, I believe the Germans were most likely quite happy with it (the Ukrainians were certainly known to the Germans to enjoy the killing of the Polish and Jewish peoples; I don't doubt the Germans were the same).

    Thank you for the post; it's sad that it works like this; I would genuinely hope though that there was a limit to what people could take, but after about a year I realize people are endlessly ready to be told that actually it's all fine.

  • I'm not surprised by Israel's disgusting behavior, instead I'm sickened further and further by Western media's framing of this and how they talk of Iran's response; at this point I think it's 100% fair to say that beyond most Western countries (thank you Ireland and Spain for being normal) every nation on earth (even the ones celebrating this genocide) recognize entirely that this is a genocide. What do you even call it when the news tells you something anyone and everyone can tell is a blatant lie? Iran has attacked military targets solely, landing critical attacks, and meanwhile for the last year and even in response to the response, Israel has attacked civilian targets. Does the news think we're all stupid? ARE we all stupid? Are there actually that many people falling for this? I admit I have to keep reminding myself that much of Western countries willingly pulling the wool over their own eyes is intentional because the victims here are Arabs. I sincerely hope, I genuinely hope, I hope with all my heart I hope, that Western news gets dragged forevermore EVERY time they give their hateful interviews and talks with foreign leaders and representatives; I've seen some of the awesome African leaders who've been interviewed by American and British media, and I've been blown away by how amazing they are, but the media always tries to dirty their image by making them seem like dictators who crush the media or do this or that, etc. I hope Western media can NEVER again give an interview without being absolutely dragged for their complicity in this genocide, for running defense for this genocide. And you know what else is crazy? Apparently Israelis are celebrating the attack by Iran because they believe that because no Israeli civilian died that the attack was a failure; these people are actually judging military successes literally by civilian body count; how can any nation on earth ever reason with those psychos?

    All this could've been avoided if they'd given Palestinians citizenship decades ago; heck, even shortly after SA ended their apartheid. This genocide and the thousands of death prior could all have been avoided.

  • I've noticed something about some of the people the IDF kills indirectly: 1. (pre-October 7th) There was a kid a while back on whom an IDF jeep flipped and crushed; the kid was still alive but the IDF refused to allow the ambulance to save his life. 2. (pre-October 7th) There was a girl they shot and let bleed to death, again, refusing to allow the paramedics to save her life. 3. There was a disabled child who was attacked by their dog that tore the kid's hand (chest?) badly; they left the disabled kid in a room and took his mother and brother away, only allowing them to come back about a week or ten days later. The disabled kid wasn't able to care for himself and died in that room. 4. They forced the staff at a hospital to leave, and there were babies in incubators they couldn't do anything about. The staff were only allowed to return two weeks later, I'm not saying anything else about this because it's horrific. 5. The case of Hind (I think that was her name); they fired on her car with a tank, and then left her there to die, shooting the ambulance that showed up and killing the paramedics inside. On this one I don't know if they knew a child was in the car, but I absolutely don't put it past them. 6. (pre-October 7th) Just lots of cases of them not allowing paramedics to care for the people they've just shot, but none I remember as specifically as the first two points.

    The descriptions of the excuses and actions of the occupation in 1982, the blatant disregard for human life and Lebanon sticking to a ceasefire agreement and Israel breaking it. I don't believe for a moment that people outside Western countries are falling for any of what's happening in Israel, only folks back home and in other Western countries believe any of it is true; the Japanese are also deciding to side with Palestine on this (surprisingly) and I'm not entirely convinced the Taiwanese or South Koreans are falling for it; Are the people of SK and Taiwan siding with Israel and the US on the matter? Probably, but I think even they know what this is.

    He's not saying anything special, he's saying literally what's on every sane person's mind, and yet after wading through Western articles about the terror attack it feels like I'm surrounded by people who've tied themselves into a pretzel to explain what we can all see with our own two eyes as terrorism, and this is the one guy who looks utterly normal. I couldn't even finish the video because nothing he says is special, it's all the stuff we can see with our own two eyes and what we can (with no difficulty whatsoever) logically tell 'this is terrorism', and yet despite that it stand out resoundingly powerful because this is one of the few places I'm seeing people calling a spade a spade, rather than utilizing every trick in a propagandist's book to not only sidestep calling the act terrorism, but to turn it around and praise it as some kind of brilliant, precise, tactical maneuver. It's refreshing and I hate how refreshing it is; it shouldn't feel so special to be getting something normal.

    While I've been considering buying a brand new PC and mobile phone (for absolutely no reason whatsoever; totally a coinkidink that I considered it at this point in time), I decided to also look up what China's own operating system was (because obviously they would have their own operating system; why would they make absolutely everything else and NOT make their own operating system?) and I was like 'ooooh, that looks cool! This Kylin OS!' only to watch a video expounding on it and revealing it's a Linux based operating system. Hexbear Linux users are to China what Israel is to America CMV I just want a normal operating system where I double click an app to activate or install it, and it has full functionality no ifs and or buts with my OS, and I can rightclick and get all the necessary functionalities of rightclicking. sudo install better OS Stupid dressed up DOS like operating system; yeah cause I really want to type up lines of instructions to do what windows can do with a double click; cause I want to spend two hours googling how to install non-Linux compatible software on Linux, and then spend two hours finding out why the solution didn't work making me feel like Indiana Jones excavating cursed ruins for a treasure you could've gotten at Walmart.

    Obviously America's done some insane stuff in the past that would be a lesson to countries around the world (for example attacking Iraq after getting them to cease production of WMDs, reinforcing the lesson to countries like the DPRK to never disarm), but with stopping the SWIFT system in Russia and with Israel now detonating beepers in Lebanon, frankly it's showing every non-Western country that it's time to cut all relations with the West and shift immediately to Russia and China. Why would you ever risk the safety of your own country now with buying tech from a Western country or one of its vassals (like SK or Japan)? There's zero guarantee America and NATO won't come after your country at some point in the future (and I'm now remembering 'hang on, wasn't Iraq under Saddam and Libya under Gaddafi literally allies of ours?'). I googled motorola (and apparently by the way motorola works closely with Israel) and it says it's a subsidiary of a Chinese company, Lenovo? How is the father company Lenovo (and consequently the Chinese government which I imagine wouldn't want one of their companies being used for terrorism) currently reacting to this news? Utter psychopathy; I don't know what the state of alternative tech and banking was in the 90's but today countries HAVE alternatives, they have fantastic alternatives, they don't *have* to rely on Western tech. I partially want to see how Western news is going to talk about this terror attack by Israel which in just moments wounded almost 3,000 people, but I know all these mouthpieces put zero value in the lives of Arabs and just like they have for the last 10 months either just spin it or let Israel say it and just repeat it. I genuinely hope China harshly rebukes this attack and shuts down their factories back home; and you know what? All those loser liberals and reactionaries losing their jobs may just jog their brains into realizing the DNC and the GOP are no future for the country.

    When Gazans talk to the outside world (or at least America), obviously they reveal info on what's happening in Gaza; Well, Palantir (American company if you don't recall it) shares info on the calls received from Gaza with unit 8200 who obviously don't want info leaking to the outside world who then target those civilians: https://x.com/Resist_05/status/1831834796676542861 So that strike on unit 8200? A cause for celebration because a bunch of civilian murderers are painting the floor.

    This stuff is awesome; a while back I was looking up Chinese dishes I could try (as I especially love steamed Chinese chicken buns) and discovered this (dessert?) and just loved it. I tried it both steamed and fried and my own personal preference is fried. This stuff is awesome, definitely can't have just one. I had six with lunch and I just can't stop thinking about getting more and I gotta stop myself, cause no way all that fried food can be good for you, but damn I can't stop thinking about it. EDIT: Actually now I think I remember what pointed me towards this dish: I was reading up about some Chinese historical figures (legends?) and read something about one of their figures eating this and I was like 'hmmm, curious.....'

    This was among the information Edward Snowden also had that he shared with this guy (aaaaand a further reminder of why I despise liberals; cause instead of hating Kamala, Biden and Obama, they despise Edward Snowden). I don't even know what to say; I don't even know if I should advise Palestinians not to talk to their relatives in Gaza or if perhaps there's some amount of selectivity going on in who the IOF murders from those Gazans, although it does seem as though they're trying to stop information from leaving Gaza as genocidally as they can. I recall a (post? bad empanada video? article?) that frankly called it out correctly that America is Israel's (willing) accomplice in the genocide and not a shot at putting an end to the killings.

    I genuinely feel like America bombing the hell out of so many countries in Africa just naturally would endear those countries to *anyone* except America and their Western vassals, but apparently a lot of twitter users can't seem to comprehend that. Is whatever debt these countries incur worse than the IMF? Are the consequences anywhere near as bad? I usually like to start from the position that the leaders of these countries know what they're doing (something Western twitter users don't), so I personally doubt it's anywhere near as bad as people claim, and no matter how bad it is, I don't believe for a moment it could be as bad as the IMF.

    I've realized that we keep hearing a never ending stream of diatribes from people like Biden, Kamala and Trump about foreign leaders and countries and I've been wondering why non-Western countries don't do the same. There's certainly a never ending list of reasons to do so; I can't help but wonder if perhaps had African countries been lambasting America about their violent policies and actions that Libya wouldn't have happened in a 'silence'. Israel, for example, striking Iran's consulate in Syria wasn't something they could do and then people let them forget that they started it; this is why you have people asking (American and British) government spokespeople about Iran's right to self defense and retaliation. American journalists travel around the world to go and harass foreign leaders about every little choice they make; are journalists from Africa, the Middle East, Asia and South America trying to get interviews with Western leaders to ask them the same ridiculous questions our journalists ask but getting no response or refused? I really feel like with a constant microscopic lens on every single awful choice we make, it just gets harder and harder to get away with it. If I HAD to compare it to something, I'd say it feels similar to when an abusive person tries manipulating or threatening an ex or a partner of his in public; it benefits the abuser that his victim is silent and doesn't make a scene. I do also understand that our government intentionally creates rifts between nations so that they're less likely to stand united and to have one anothers' backs. Certainly I'm nearly vocally cheering every time I see African leaders respond to the idiot journalists or politicians we keep sending their way; I'm following an African twitter account and get posts from time to time of the idiot journalists asking either stupid questions or hypocritical ones; for example now with that knowledge of those interviews that occurred, I can wonder (rhetorically) why don't journalists go over and ask African leaders *now* about their decision not to arrest Putin as per the ICC ruling (the idea being that Western leaders don't want to arrest Netanyahu). But as I said, I can also understand how countries just want to exist in peace and don't want the headache; it's probably just me being youtube 'debate me brah' brained and wanting to see the global South own the idiot news channels.

    Make it make sense People cry 'waaaaaaah, he spoke Spanish within earshot', but the government privatizes natural resources and suddenly the same reactionary human garbage is silent. Whatever happened to 'you're in MY country', huh? If it's your country then did the government get your permission to privatize all those resources? If the West is so great then why is it non-Western countries are the ones nationalizing their natural resources and making their population live better lives. 'If yOu LiKe cOmMuNiSm sO mUcH, wHy Don'T yOu LiVe iN GaDdAfi's LiByA?' idiot I would strive to live in Gaddafi's Libya as a Libyan citizen if our government hadn't killed him!
