Which only benefits Israel. If Jewish people are less safe in their home countries they are incentivized to become Israeli settlers.

You’re never going to be allowed to vote against this regime. You need to do something else.

No, everything bad that happens in the US is the fault of Russia. They are the most powerful country on Earth and the puppet masters control everything behind the scenes!

Do you think you’re blameless? Do you think you’re innocent?

Trump is a paper tiger, he was defeated by Ansar Allah in Yemen and China just defeated his stupid trade war.

If we compare it to the trade war with China, the US only kept it up for a few weeks and backed down. There are material realities that force the US to bend, it actually can’t just do whatever it wants. So, if there was an international flotilla sent to Cuba to deliver much needed supplies, the US would retaliate at first and then back down when it realized the entire world was against it.

Would it really take a navy?

If all these countries started sending joint floatillas to Cuba loaded with supplies, what would the US actually do? Blow them up? Seize them and arrest the crew?

I kinda doubt it. Maybe if Mexico did it by themselves or something they’d try, but all its allies at the same time? Would the US destroy itself just to enforce this embargo?

Central authority is a tool. In different hands it does different things, but if you disarm yourself you’ll lose.

If you do not choose your leaders they will choose themselves. We tried the whole leaderless, decentralized anti-authority thing throughout the 2010s. At best you might be able to collapse the central authority of the currently existing government regime, but what comes after that is always much much worse: civil war, invasion, or an even more repressive government regime. But, more likely, the movement will just collapse because it lacks the structure to actually sustain itself.

We need to be centralized and we need to be ready to assert our authority when the old one is destroyed, or we will lose.

Imagine believing you can defeat capitalism without central authority.

I’d only consider buying it if it looked like a Planetary Trade Organization scouter.

Except due to the overuse of sanctions and the new trade war bullshit, the dollar is losing that status. There are too many countries that are unable to use dollars at this point for the dollar to remain a reserve currency. This is the beginning of the end.

Actually augmented reality glasses will be really cool when I don’t have to wear a brick over my eyes to use it.

There’s no way to enforce that without massive privacy violations.

You want to be asked to scan your ID every time you use a mature website?

Negotiated what? The ceasefire was a trick that Israel used to retreat and rearm and reorganize. Doesn’t matter who you credit for it because the ceasefire was never supposed to last, it was always going to be broken by Israel because they are fucking monsters.

I also think Israel deliberately chose to give Trump a ceasefire to start his term to help him boost his initial popular power and demobilize the anti-genocide protests.

The only thing Biden deserves credit for is his unlimited support for Israel, which Trump seems to have continued. Bipartisan consensus.

Are you giving Biden credit for the ceasefire that started after he already left office?

Interesting.

AI of some kind will replace parts of our jobs, but LLM chatbots won’t except in some specific cases. This is just a hype bubble.

Your lesser evil decided it wanted to do genocide more than it wanted to win the most winnable election in history.

I think they meant, “Trump pulling back from toppling democratic governments.” i.e. the actual function of USAID

I’ll go farther - ancaps don’t exist. Actually existing ancap-ism is always either neoliberalism or fascism.

All the Silicon Valley techbro ancaps are just openly fascist now.
