so dishonest

not just that but how many were killed by the idf themselves. got 19 year olds shooting any moving car no fucking idea who’s inside. hamas’s mission was so obviously to capture as many hostages alive as possible.

IDK tbf Bernie didn’t really go in on Sinwar. OK he said he’s dead that’s true.

He does call them “1200 innocent people” ok that’s just false if they’re an occupying military. But also he doesn’t say Sinwar killed them. If ever a time for the passive “died” was called for it would be have been then, considering it seems like most non-military deaths were probably from the IDF themselves. We’ll never know exact numbers. Thankfully doesn’t blame the palestinian deaths on him which is peak lib genocide apologia. At least he’s trying to use it to end the war but naively thinks shit like this will work. Zionists don’t want an offramp bernie they are true believers. this is what zionism is.

History will show Sinwar was a hero. And history will show Bernie had a good heart but was a coward who should’ve broken with the Democratic Party but didn’t have the guts, and always was wrong and had a blind spot about Israel and foreign policy in general.

Yes of course even for the wealthy they are going to invent whatever construct they need to justify their own position in their own head. The capital is so concentrated though so there aren’t too many of that kind.

It’s true not just economics anything that impedes our ability to empathize with one another will create the possibility of this. Though I think for demogogues economic stress it’s the easiest to exploit and misdirect to protect from “levelling”. Also geographic segregation makes it much easier to “otherise” people etc etc regardless. Look at the Brits and the Irish and they are all pale af but Brits wanted the land so they created a construct to legitimize it.

It’s true. America is such a segregated society it is almost inevitable, so long as the construct of race exists. The anxiety causes even good-natured people to do awkward shit sometimes. But the elites will literally use anything they can to divide us up. Skin is one of the easiest, humans are such visual creatures and it’s the biggest organ, and we are segregated anyway. The construct of race works better than the elites could have even predicted though.

economic anxiety and racism go hand in hand. blame life stresses on the other simple as. classic demagogury.

only adjacently relevent but I was reading about how most of the VPN industry is dominated by israeli/mossad-adjacent companies. Be warned comrades: https://www.mintpressnews.com/exposed-how-israeli-spies-control-your-vpn/288259/

what did they spend it on? LOTR trilogy cost 150 mil (admittedly in 2000)

she was pretty bad as an actress imo. haven’t seen her in anything else. or maybe i’m just subconsciously biased cuz i heard she’s a zionist?

thanks so much. don’t know yandex or justin podur. great get.

They can’t say what he’s actually been convicted of because people would just laugh in their face.

Cela ressemble aux Etats-Unis.

since it default sorts by active, commenting to try to boost this in hexbear. on some hacker shit.

like the suffix in the url? yeah i always try to delete that shit

they don’t casually write it off the DNC actively tries to keep greens and anyone else off the ballot. Suggests to me it may be an avenue worth pursuing.

even better let’s just try to win the fuckin thing

The task is disproportionately difficult in the imperial core but i don’t think it’s impossible. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” Mandela said that. I’m down to have someone school me and change my mind but they have to make the case beyond vague structural maneuvers. Even if that were true I’d say there’s value in forcing the regime to steal it, but after what Brazil and Mexico have been able to do, I’m highly skeptical of people in leftist circles trying to discourage voting as all together hopeless.

And just to clarify I’m definitely not arguing to vote for either mainstream corporate party. I’ll vote Jill Stein this time. I figure Greens have been maintaining the ballot access we may as well use it.

Hopefully my tone is not too off-putting! I am genuinely down to be shown the light but i haven’t seen a convincing argument yet personally and am just frustrated with our lack of collective progress. If our efforts should be better spent elsewhere in the next 5 months I definitely want to hear about that! Keep fighting, comrades.

(Bushnell is obviously a hero and legend. Palestine will be free.)

guess she wasn’t aware of his 50 year record
