rest in peace to pretti and renee good and rest in peace to michael parenti. man. this is just. wow
A Dutch dog breeder decided to quit because their dogs were probably being used by the IDF and the increasing (legal) pressure from activists became too heavy. Activism works.
I can’t watch the videos of the Good or Pretti killings. I know that’s understandable but even just looking at the thumbnails my heart rate starts to rise.
I saw a photo of the interior of Renee Good’s car after the shooting. The blood all over the airbag makes me so…afraid for some reason. Maybe I place myself in her shoes at that moment. I don’t know. I don’t know
I feel the same. And I live in the Netherlands. I’m afraid we will turn in the same direction, especially with our fascist party rising in the polls. I feel threatened
¡Chinga la migra!
Inside you there are two wolves. One does ruthless criticism of everything that exists. The other follows party discipline. Both are Lenin.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
When I think about Xi’s published writings which I saw recently here or on Hexbear described as a bunch of speeches from ribbon cutting ceremonies, is it right to conceive of this as his thought being related to party discipline, strengthening of the party, which can also be seen in his anti-corruption purges? I was reading xiaohongshu’s latest post talking about 3 CMC officials being purged - it seems to me both China and America have purged their upper ranks which I think corresponds with the qualitative shifts taking place in warfare at this moment. Would be interested to hear your thoughts.
I can’t speak on the purges [probably related to corruption in China’s case], but Xi’s works are mainly speeches but they vary in terms of what they’re about and where they are at.
In some cases they are ribbon cuttiing ceremonies, but in others its general speeches to organizations, universities, etc.
In any case Xi Jinping thought is a genuine refinement of Socialism with Chinese Charecteristics, and Governance of China explains the main goals quite clearly.
thank you

this is brain rot is there any truth to this?
30K? that is terminal brain rot. There were 3 days of violence. The reason the internet is still turned off is because there is an american carrier group steaming to Iran.
As for how blacked out the internet is the commentator is correct that it is a near total black out.
There’s truth to damage done by people literally paid to do terrorism there. See:

But the numbers claiming massive death done by the Iranian government are made up by the usual suspects:
thanks for the last one.

NATO is suspending sharing intelligence with the US lmao the downfall is speeding up
thank you JDPON Don
Are they learning that overstretching your military is a bad move (or at least that’s what assume is happening)?
I wouldn’t count on it
The USA has been on a winning streak
Syria and now Venezuela
Venezuela has not been a win. They kidnapped a man but Chavismo is still strong. All that has happened is that the empire has further unmasked itself.
tru
Venezuela was an expensive PR mission that did nothing to actually threaten the Bolivarian revolution. Maduro wasn’t even in hiding and the government assuredly had plans in case the US pulled some BS like this. If anything, the state will be even more attentive to squashing possible US proxies and collaborators
The US is also literally incapable of occupying Venezuelan territory.
Stay safe, everyone. Keep up your studies and habits, take care of yourselves.
As always, communism will win.
I hope you all have a nice week :D
