You lost me at "Russian Special Military Operation in Ukraine." You can just call it what it is... an invasion.

And if you think "the left" in the US is so powerful that it could have made any kind of dent in the narratives surrounding Russia's invasion of Ukraine I have to call bullshit.

Fuck the G7.

Fuck their little kapo state in the middle-east, too.

You’d be better off arguing a case of genocide instead.

You mean... that thing people who know better have been accusing Israel off since the very start?

If you think Gandhi was bad, you should look into Mother Theresa - the woman was literally a Disney cartoon villain.

Israel doesn’t trust Hamas.

Then maybe Israel shouldn't have funded them.

The blockade, which, mind you, is also enforced by Egypt

The US-backed dictatorship in Egypt is doing the US's bidding? You don't say...

Any civilian casualties are to be condemned.

Israel hasn't made much distinction between combatants and non-combatants since 1949 - can't blame Hamas for playing by Israel's rules.

Yet, you must remember that Hamas likes to base itself under hospitals, schools, mosques.

Right, because there are vast tracts of unused real estate in one of the most densely populated areas on the planet, eh?

If that is not surgical, I don’t know what is.

There is no such thng as a "surgical" artillery shell, Clyde. And as for the claim itself... the IDF is no more trustworthy than the Apartheid security forces were.

Fuck Israel.

Yeah... no. You shouldn't overestimate these intelligence agencies. The Nazis never got wind of the Warsaw Uprising and the US never got wind of the Tet offensive... they are simply not that infallible.

The whole problem with this theory is that Israel has gone to great lengths to "stabilize" the imprisonment of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank in the hopes of normalizing the situation even further - a very important requirement for Israel's attempts to normalize relations with it's neighbours. That's what their precious "Security Barrier" was all about. That "stability" is now shattered - probably forever - and so are their hopes of getting Arabic nations permanently on their side. That's why the US is suddenly shifting carrier groups into the area - this could be the beginning of the end of the current status quo, and the US knows that.

Gardening is more dangerous than being a cop. It's not a high bar.

Nobody walked away from that landing, so it definitely wasn't a good one. The fact that there was nobody to walk away from the landing is a mere technicality.

NATO announces $1B fund to back startups supporting ~~'safety, freedom and human empowerment'~~ US neocolonialism.

Fixed that for them.

Putin has just screwed over a lot of African leaders with his grain deal shitfuckery, and now he's acting all surprised pickachu-face because they are showing his disdain for him by not showing up.

Putin has forgotten that the only use African leaders have for him and Russia is as a counter-balance to US neocolonialist policy in Africa - that doesn't mean they have to like him or his regime.

A nazi is getting beaten up. What's not to love about that?

We already live in a "post-scarcity" world... there is absolutely nothing humans could need that we couldn't grow or produce. All the scarcity you see around you is artificially created and maintained - and that means socialism is far, far from obsolete.
