He's a leader, they make decisions and rubber stamp things, he's not digging a trench. There's an incredible amount of wisdom that comes with that kind of life experience, not even mentioning relationships and trust.
I imagine faith in god helps dealing with stress, its not the first day zionists were out to get him
i read somewhere, it might have been on instagram, i dont have a source, but the 'aid workers' literally make the people lining up for food wait at the parimeter, before blaring a siren signalling people can approach
its so dehumanising, it is how people treat animals
This probably belongs in the general mega, not the news mega. I chuckled.
Times of israel was reporting a ban in all gatherings, and services that aren't essential
is this like COVID lockdowns? Is mcdonalds considered an essential service? can israelis in bunkers still get mcdonalds ubered to their bunker by a migrant on a scooter?

while his brain is totally mush and he's got no idea what's going on at the best of times, i still think he actually knows what he's doing. I hate it when I see people falling into the old my enemies are silly and fumbling thing. Remember how BushJr was portrayed as some goofy guy? Look at how he's been rehabilitated now.

saw it mentioned in a youtube video by FD signifier, I just finished the first episode, and I enjoyed it a lot, something about needing positive propaganda not just constant commenting on reactionary garbage

“I didn’t vote,” says the Kangaroo.
“Are you not allowed?”
“I am not allowed and I don’t want to.”
“You don’t want to?”
“No, because it’s not an election,” says the Kangaroo. “It’s just the illusion of democracy, a mock poll, the Fata Morgana of popular government. In short, it’s only the appearance of an election, or, to use the official terminology: a dummy ballot.
“A dummy ballot?”
“It’s as if you go into a supermarket and can choose between soup packets by Maggi or soup packets by Knorr, but in reality, it’s all Nestlé. The dummy ballot suggests freedom, but in reality, I tell you: it’s all capitalism, it’s all Nestlé, it’s all chicken. But because I generally do not wish to consume packaged soup, I don’t really give a hoot about brand options at the supermarket.”

I'm definitely try and see Prashad talk later this month
In what appeared a blatant attempt to skirt the warnings, dozens of protesters waved banners that appeared to be very similar to the flag of the terror group. One green and gold flag – colours that represent both Australian sporting teams and Hezbollah – depicted Australian outlaw Ned Kelly holding a gun above his head.
Under the image of Kelly were the words: “The boys in green and gold will win.”
[...]
Alex, an attendee who also had the flag, told The Australian he was simply a “sporting enthusiast” who was backing “the green and gold”. “I’m just a sporting enthusiast who is supporting Ned Kelly and the boys in the green and gold,” he said.

Being a shithead can manifest itself in many ways:
If your friend says something offensive, and you don't call them out, or you only gently scold them so you can stay on good terms - you're being a shit head.
If you're criticising people behind their back, or holding your tongue in a meeting, and gossiping later - you're being a shithead.
If you're letting people off lightly because what they say doesn't personally affect you - you're being a shithead.
If you're demanding special treatment, while expecting others hold themselves to a higher standard - you're being a shithead.
If you resort to personal attacks, instead of arguing against an incorrect point - you're being a shithead.
If you hear someone state a falsehood as fact, and you don't correct them - you're being a shithead.
If you're at work and you're not agitating, and showing no concern for the well-being of others - you're being a shithead.
If you see someone harming others, while you do nothing to stop them, and do not try to reason with them - you're being a shithead.
If you do the bare minimum, with no direction, plans or goals - you're being a shithead.
If you consider yourself a veteran, better than others around you, and above menial tasks, - you're being a shithead.
If you're aware you've made a mistake, and you do nothing to correct it - you're being a shithead.
Being a shithead might keep you comfortable and safe, but you're doing harm to those around you when you engage in these behaviours.
If you're being a shithead, do not.
I try my best to uphold these principles, so yeah I guess you can say I'm pretty unpopular.

Yes I did just do a shorthand version of combat liberalism and ctrl+h "liberal" with "shithead", the idea of making a poster with these points that just says "DONT BE A SHIT" has been floating around in my noggin for a while, yes thank you, I am very funny.
spoiler 😱 actually if the original copy of this said "shitremoved" and I changed it to "shithead" so I don't upset anyone, is that liberalism? 🤔 /s :::
I feel like this should almost go in c/badposting haha
Hezbollah protesters in Melbourne may face police, visa scrutiny
A protester with a photo of Nasrallah during a pro-Palestine rally for Gaza and Lebanon at the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne on Sunday.
Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke threatened to consider canceling visas for people supporting such groups.
“Any indication of support for a terrorist organisation is unequivocally condemned,” Burke said in a statement on Sunday.
“It draws the immediate attention of our security agencies.
“There is a higher level of scrutiny if anyone is on a visa.
“I have made clear from day one, that I will consider refusing and cancelling visas for anyone who seeks to incite discord in Australia.”
What a fucking joke, Posy Parker is coming back to australia in under a month for a "conservative conference", and they're getting ready to round up Brown kids. I saw somewhere that a 13 year old got pepper sprayed in the face for carrying a Hezbollah flag yesterday as well.
The list of 'terror groups' i can find on the uk websites havent been updated to include palestine action, and they obviously also don't include any of the descemdents of the british national front
normal day in the uk then
