He has said he respects PSL for doing on the ground organizing and stuff, independent of the electoral voting side which he does think is kind of pointless ultimately.

It's so revealing when shitheads make complaints like that. For all their talk of "biological facts" in regards to stuff like conditioning, they can't help but reveal the base misogyny at the core.

Like how the hell do you ever justify that women can't shoot a gun. Some of the most famous sharpshooters of all time have been women. Does estrogen make bullets go bad?

I don't know. If this was the prelude to a serious invasion, wouldn't they start the offensive right after the communications attacks? I mean I'm not saying they won't. Israel has certainly developed enough terminal fascist brainworms to attack at bad times tactically, but it seems like if this was planned to be in conjunction with an invasion, they'd have started already.

Though I suppose it's possible that this attack will be enough to shift their attention northward, separate of a true plan, the feelings of triumph making them stumble their way into an actual invasion. I could see factions in the government being stupidly confident in this moment.

Why would they not?

Wait this has to be a joke right? They plotted their way to walk through Death Valley. No one is that stupid right?

Yeah, the idea of walking through Nevada, when you’re not extremely experienced, is insane to me.

Yeah, all you really need to control a narrative is seed comments, enough bots to give the comments momentum, so that randoms uncritically believe it, and a mod team that's either passive or sympathetic. If you have that, the momentum will build itself.

It's worse, in my opinion. Landmines are fixed in place. Warnings can be put to deter people from approaching. This entirely uncontrolled, random.

When that child is brought up, the demons start talking about how the ratio "isn't that bad actually, surgical really", both downplaying the death of a child and immediately assuming none of the thousands of other victims aren't children as well.

The fucking animals in reddit-logo cheering this on are making me fucking furious. Even if you accept he base idea that Hezbollah is a terrorist org, and that Israel is justified in attacking them (Which I don't), it's fucking absurd to think that all of these explosions only harmed "terrorists". So many people were harmed here, and likely many more will die. Thousands were harmed by this, people just guilty of holding on to a communication device. This is such a disgusting action.

This lady led a secret coup to depose the bourgeois government of the United States, installing a council republic with minimal bloodshed. Now, the next phase comes, to secure revolutionary power, and quell the counter revolution.

Girls rock.

Republican senators were alarmed and relieved when they learned that their colleague Sen. Joni Ernst had choked during a party lunch on Thursday and was rescued by Sen. Rand Paul, who gave her the Heimlich maneuver.

Ernst appeared to be making jokes about the experience on social media, tweeting, “Can’t help but choke on the woke policies Dems are forcing down our throats. Thanks @randpaul!”

“I didn’t actually see it,” said Sen. John Cornyn, a Republican of Texas. “We’ve had that happen one other time to one of our members. It’s kind of scary.”

Thank God. We almost had a tragedy. Imagine losing two American heroes in one day.

Thank you for your service, Mr. Paul. 07

In a move that critics are calling “one of the most tasteless events I’ve ever heard of,” Berkeley landlords are celebrating the end of eviction protections in the East Bay city with a cocktail party. The Berkeley Property Owners Association, a trade group for rental property owners in Berkeley, apparently believes regaining the right to throw people out of their homes is cause for celebration — or at least a networking event. The “Fall Social Mixer: Celebrating the End of the Eviction Moratorium” is set for the evening of Sept. 12; the event was first spotted by Berkeleyside.

About an hour passed before protesters entered the bar, at which point multiple fights broke out, Berkeleyside reported. According to one witness, a male BPOA member who attended the event slapped a female protester in the face and pushed her. Videos of the event show other violent altercations, including a protester knocking a party attendee’s eyeglasses off and a party attendee swinging their fist toward a protester.

Statement by the Landlord association:

“We condemn the actions of hostile dissidents who disrupted a private gathering at a local restaurant to intimidate, harass, and physically assault our members who are law-abiding small business owners,” read part of a statement, which was shared with SFGATE.

"Hostile dissidents" is some interesting phrasing for local residents chanting outside of a bar.

In the queue of about 130 people, only 20 are male. Men aged 18-60 are not allowed to leave Ukraine unless they qualify for an exemption. Four of those waiting are young lads who look close to turning 18. To avoid the risk of mobilisation, they must leave before then. Of course, some men find ways to get out anyway, legally or illegally. On August 11th President Volodymyr Zelensky announced he was sacking the heads of the country’s regional military recruitment centres, where officials were alleged to be selling travel permits for up to $10,000. “Bribery during war is treason,” Mr Zelensky railed.

In the initial period after the invasion most men trying to get across were driven by fear, says Colonel Trachuk. Now she reckons half are looking for work. But those trying to escape military service must live at risk of being apprehended by recruitment officers and press-ganged. At the beginning of the invasion Ivan, a 42-year-old musician in Uzhhorod, contemplated enlisting, but changed his mind when he saw coffins arriving. Now, he says, he is in constant fear of being called up: “I feel like I am hanging in the air.”

Sorry to :reddit-logo: post

The most recent Chapo episode covered and dunked on the New York Times and their transphobia regarding "debates" over trans healthcare. A bunch of people "just wanting to debate" rolled in, giving all kinds of wonderful takes that you can imagine.

For some reason, the mod team has been leaving their comments, and deleting some people dunking on them. Looking a little deeper, the new head mod installed after Mary was exiled is a stupidpol poster.

All in all, not great.
