Not sure who that is but obviously not Israel

It's a video

Thanks Davel!

But he can leave anytime he wants! ...As long as he recites their Loyalty Oath.

A valid question, and the answer might be as mundane as attention. Gaza has the world's attention at the moment, both due to the active genocide and the response of the world's most well-funded military to the active genocide, and because of that scrutiny a lot of people are reconsidering long-held positions on the subject.

By and large most people are content to just busy themselves with their daily concerns without looking at larger contexts if they don't have to or simply can't afford to spare that attention, but it's a lot harder to look away now.

"Do you now or have you ever failed to support Biden?"

Patrick Stewart could convince me the sky was green 🤩

Thanks Comrade!

Eh, it's easy to make such generalizations, but I think it's a lot harder to consider that what we see of that generation are either the ones who were sociopathic enough to rise to the top or the ones who survived what in many cases amounted to mandatory conscription for wars most didn't want to be in and a slow descent into larger quantities of corporate-backed state propaganda. To be a boomer who understood the mental trap the state locked you into is to be depressingly isolated to the point of substance use or self-harm.

Fuck up one coup, shame on you? How many is Amerikkka up to now, failed or successful?

I'd say if he went to the US he'd be found dead in a cell within a week. We all know how well the giant narcissistic toddler that is the US handles people who give it a black eye-- were it any more toddler-like Israel would kill it.

Yeah, when they give me an alternate title I use it but sometimes this is all we get from them unless I'm going to start editorializing. Still, probably least bad video-based regular news show in English. I like Ryan Grim and Krystal Ball.

Damn, I never heard of Fall of Eagles before. New one for the list.

In theory, exactly what should happen. In practice? DC Ghouls need more childrens' blood for their ancient Eldritch Rites.

It is! It can't all be bad news, sometimes we need some uplift too.

Crazy! Almost like a concerted effort to tell people to not believe their own experiences for financial and political gain not only doesn't work but actively backfires!

Oh yes, I remember that. It inspired me to re-read The Masque of the Red Death.

At first I was like: How can capitalism allow this to happen without Bo being disappeared? But then I realized that not enough people will even hear about it for it to make a difference, and even fewer will believe it or listen seriously to its message, and in the meantime capital will just profit off of it. Also they let George Carlin live for quite a while and he said essentially the same thing.

It was kinda fun to watch corpos shit themselves, even briefly. Unfortunately this triggered their narcissistic rage which has been on an endless tear since, but for a brief moment in time the thing they cared about was hurt: their money.

Unfortunately due to the desperation the people of Gaza are feeling I think we can expect more stories like this in the future, should they find a way to broadcast out from Gaza. At this point I'd be amazed if the healthcare workers aren't killed by Israel considering their history and lack of concern for even the citizens of the nation funding this genocide.

To paraphrase Yanis Varoufakis, we all have a little Hitler inside us that we must kill every day.

"No Dr Jung I understand why I'm impotent in real life, I'm talking to you to figure out why it happens in my dreams too."

Aww, I went there to make fun of PugJesus but then I realized I already blocked them. 😥

Can't imagine why.

To be fair, not enough people push back against Bill Maher or call him out even that much. I suspect that's because he postures as some debate bro who's all into free speech until he encounters someone who mildly disagrees with him, at which point he unleashes the impotent rage of his tightly-controlled prestige television platform, proving that his supposed stance on free speech was a hypocritical facade all along.

It is nice to see though, even a little.

You mean they didn't double-tap themselves in the back of the head and throw themselves in the river?

Just vote for the dem, one more time. Come on, this'll be the last time, then Trump will be gone and we'll all dance under a rainbow. 15k dead kids? Small price to pay for world peace. C'mon, for the kids. Vote Blue.

I mean, we had the Black Panthers, but they didn't check in with the FBI to see if that was allowed first soooo...

I think he used to be but then went Independent but still leans conservative or something and the blonde woman who cohosts with Ryan Grim on Wednesdays and Fridays is also a conservative, idk there's a whole history/lore to that show but leftist journalists in the anglosphere are a bit scarce and Krystal Ball and Ryan Grim are some of the few. It's actually been really interesting to watch how some of his old worldviews unraveled in the course of their journalism over time. I'm half-expecting him to become a leftist in a few years if the trend continues.

Just vote for the dem, one more time. Come on, this'll be the last time, then Trump will be gone and we'll all dance under a rainbow. 15k dead kids? Small price to pay for world peace. C'mon, for the kids. Vote Blue.
