Worst case scenario you get to live abroad for a while. That sounds great.

Whenever I see “DEI” I think it’s some new crypto coin I haven’t heard of yet

Do you want pickles or beetroot on your shit sandwich?

Lmao

He can’t afford pants 😭

I know the demonic testicles of Meron Air Base well, having seen Hezbollah come at them like sperm to an egg, over and over in countless videos. They’ve been relentless. It honestly gets boring because the whole thing never fireballs, but each small hit adds up. Each time a hole in ‘Israeli’ air defenses opens, the hole only gets bigger, because of Hezbollah is damaging complex, interconnected systems.

Prose

After months of this boring de-administrative work, Hezbollah has finally gotten to the good stuff. ‘Israel’s’ northern air defenses today are like a ragged old mosquito net that the dog chased the cat through. It’s full of holes, and big ones. Hezbollah can increasingly fire at will, with increasingly accurate weapons. For example, here is Hezbollah taking down a SKYSTAR 330 by drone-striking its Battalion 869 operator literally in the nuts.

Poetry

This is a huge problem because the Iron Dome is not just ‘Israel’s’ physical defense mechanism, it’s their psychological defense mechanism. It’s what makes the whole colonial project believable, that they can piss off everyone in the region and suffer no consequences. Belief in the ‘Iron Dome’ is belief in ‘Israel’ and neither is believable anymore. Thus the northern ‘settlements’ have emptied out and they’re not coming back anytime soon.

Eschatological & dialectic

The colonial condom is full of holes and ‘Israel’ is pregnant with a Palestine reborn.

Well, it’s certainly evocative I’ll give him that

This is all causing massive psychological damage to ‘Israel’ because the Iron Dome was their safety blanket, and now they have to face the skeletons under their bed alone. This is all because Hezbollah had a strategy while ‘Israel’ was just ratchety, bombing ambulances and homes with no military value.

Not just missiles but truth bombs heading towards Tel Aviv right now

Not leftist self-criticism but leftist self-contempt

Teenage me trying to impress a girl by being mean to her then wondering why she didn’t want to date

I didn’t say he was a Marxist. I said his realism is strikingly similar to historical materialism insofar as it views and understands the world but differs wildly from Marxism in terms of what how it believes we should respond to that material reality.

Listening to Mearsheimer is so weird. It’s pure historical materialism that walks straight up to the point of being Marxism, but then he takes a turn and says “…and this is why we must focus on containing China to maintain the US empire, because that’s what it is it’s an empire.”

That girl looked really into him and DTF and probably yes his political status and social stature played into that. But Stalin seemed to politely not reciprocate while also enjoying the attention.

The worst I see in this video is that Stalin didn’t have the self-consciousness to understand why a man shouldn’t be guest of honor at a women’s forum, so ok a ding thing but at the risk of moral relativism it was the fucking 1930s and he was hosting special forums for social groups facing labor discrimination holy shit that’s still better than 99.9% of the US elite.

And secondly he definitely was enjoying the attention but that girl was definitely into him, and he was known to be a rogue in his 20s and to be a real charmer so maybe my bro gotta learn there’s a time and a place to get tail and a women’s focus group ain’t that place.

One of my most firmly held convictions is that Belgian beer is thoroughly overrated.

They’re either too heavy or they have weird fucking flavors. Why the fuck do I want chocolate or cherry flavored beer? When have you ever drank a beer and thought “I would love to eat a bar of chocolate while I’m drinking this.”

No. Fuck no.

And even the non-Trappist beers are just ok, usually too heavy bodied.

Vedet is ok. That’s all.

In communist China, universities are legally required to use student funds to invest in Uyghur genocide and if the students protest this they get expelled and lose social credit.

Warm soapy water, hand wash, thorough drying in the air but out of direct sun.

Probably you could throw him in a laundry machine, but maybe use one of those laundry bags that are used to protect delicates like bras.

Use a cold wash, like 30C or whatever that is F, the coldest setting the machine has that isn’t literally just cold. Detergent requires some heat to activate but typically 30C is sufficient and you want to be at that minimum to be safe.

Hand washing in water that is warm like a gentle bath is likely best.

Then the key thing is really letting him dry. Thorough drying. Don’t put him in direct sunlight.

Do NOT use fabric softener.

Do NOT wring him dry. Just let him air dry.

Let that stock value sink

While you take time to cool off try and think of ONE EXAMPLE

All you’re doing is pontificating. I’m asking for an example. A concrete example. You’re not giving me one, you’re just sounding off, accusing me of shit, and being an ass.

I asked a direct question: what is an achievement in terms of civil rights or social progress.

What’s more that was obviously in the context of western liberal democracy anyway.

You point to a system in China that hasn’t really achieved any system change either and then go on to say some rant about me having a knee jerk reaction.

All that after saying I’m arguing in bad faith.

Go fuck yourself or give me an example of system change, preferably one in the context of western liberal democracy since that’s clearly the relevant context but if you can’t do that I’ll also take an example from China because I’m not a bad faith douche bag and I’ll let you move the goal posts if that helps you.

My question was made in good faith.

What’s the greatest achievement of electoralism?

If electoralism wants to be part of the gang then maybe it should do something useful. It’s not “divisive” to point out that it’s trying to take credit for things it didn’t contribute to.

MLK pointed it out. The “moderate” is more dangerous than an open white supremacist because at least the white supremacist is being honest with you. It’s good to divide from those who don’t contribute and who inevitably stab you in the back.

For real, tell me electoralisms greatest achievement. I don’t need a list, give me one thing.
