In Bruges scene where Colin Farrell is pointing a gun at his head and Brendon Gleeson is also pointing a gun at Colin Farrell's head

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

It is not 2010 anymore. Criticism of Israel is mainstream and liberals will be doing it more and more and more every single day because Israel has an 80% unfavorable rating among Democrats. 80% unfavorable. 80% unfavorable. Read the fucking data.

a 2024 tweet from me that says "there's some "iran is gonna disappear off the map, yee-haw!" posts in response to this and oh no, ha ha, it very much is not. multiple times the size of iraq, mountainous, could freely cripple the world's oil trade. if you wanna invade iran you're getting drafted"

this is about as insightful a prediction as "the sun will rise tomorrow" but seeing as it came as a surprise to a lot of people in power somehow i shall accept a single head pat for it

everything we are seeing now is the consequence of having a political environment in which indifference to the deaths and suffering of other people - even by the state whose supposed responsibility is to safeguard their welfare - is a superpower rather than a political liability

The bourgeois politicians haven’t and won’t do what you want them to do

So now how will you act? It is on the working class. Stop expecting them to act in your interests or in the interests of the people of the world. They have been setting the planet on fire for decades

If you want to know why I've always resisted attempts to cancel socialists, this is why.

Perfectly obvious that liberals have spent the last decade purity testing anyone who opposes capitalism while letting the worst imaginable actors walk right in the door. This is absolutely fucking ridiculous

"This streamer is a Tankie" cool man anyway Trump and co. are waving nukes around

this is where I've been for a while, but I understand that it reads as defensive to canadians & europeans that I know. but those of in the same class position (ie most of us) share something else in common, we don't get to choose where we're born.

I have the stomach to say one more thing: as meaningful as what students saw in response to their protests (repression) is what they didn't (US shifting away from support for genocide). describing this as *their* failure as opposed to the supposed adults in the room is a joke and not the funny kind

LMAO

I'll try to address your inquiries when you tell me who gave you that impression and why you feel compelled to broadcast lies publicly.

you're accusing me of deflecting when you have 2K followers and claim that chicago DSA has substantial ties to brandon johnson.

you've been the one posting easily discredited falsehoods about the chapter for years. seriously, who has been feeding you this information? I have my suspicions but I don't want to throw names out there publicly in an unfair way.

who is telling you that the chapter is going to actively support the brandon johnson re-election campaign?

the chapter got smeared so harshly for passing on brandon '23, was quickly vindicated, and now some people are trying to reverse engineer that lmao

I haven't been in chapter leadership since 2023 but I do not get why this person w a decent following blatantly lies about chicago DSA all the time

I didn't know this was the origin story lol

The conflation of antizionism with antisemitism, the deployment of antisemitism *as* antizionism, and the inability to criticize either without being attacked by both is yet another example of why class analysis, power dynamics, and political ideology are more useful tools than identitarianism

We’re finally gonna get an answer to the question “What if René Coty tried to Post Through It during the Suez Crisis?”

I don't think we are prepared for what is going to happen to the US public opinion of the state of Israel - and the spillover onto people's opinions of American Jews - if it comes to be widely believed that Israel started a war that led people to be unable to afford gas.

To take this seriously a sec: when your political-economic system allows massive inequality to explode, it creates a class of people who have no material problems but do have the resources & power to make their trivial irritations the central business of politics—at immense material cost to others.

You gotta hand it to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris: they were the only two people who predicted that Donald Trump would be bad

Live look inside the WH for deliberations over a ground invasion of Iran

this is not an amount of money any individual or household should be able to have and we have to abolish both billionaires as a group and the economic system that makes them possible

a thing historians will marvel about when they study this era is the extent to which the "war is a thing that happens to poorer, browner people" class went about systematically dismantling every aspect of the global political order that confined the costs of war to poorer and browner people

DAVID FRENCH: I'm uncomfortable with the way this was done, but there is a strong case for war here. The regime -- President Trump needed to make that case and the case was very much there to be made. It wasn't.

JAMELLE BOUIE: all I'm going to say on that issue David is I am wearing tweed today

No, it’ll be fine

scrawny 18-year-old about to fall out of an army helicopter over tehran: this is so epic. this is totally sigma, right babe?

AI e-girl operated by a balding intelligence officer in virginia: that's right baby, Iran is totally cringe

honestly you have to love kash patel. graduate of pace law, former public defender, just failed upwards by making a kids book about how donald trump is handsome and brave and raging constantly about the fbi head flying around in a private jet and now hes the fbi head flying around in a public jet

the chicago bears should move to mandy indiana send post
