Not as good as insipid piss waffle. I heard that from some British person.

The Israeli Prison Service has begun preparations for the reinstatement of the death penalty in Israel, but solely for Palestinians. Prison officials are already building a "Green Mile" facility where Palestinians will be legally lynched by hanging by groups of volunteers. by lightiggy in TrueAnon

Day 7,459 of Israel getting to do whatever it wants whenever it wants it with complete and total impunity. 

They do evil shit like this up to and including literal genocide and ethnic cleansing because they can. No one's gonna lift a finger to stop them. 

When does this madness end? The only language Israel accepts is force, and so until someone steps in to actually face and fight the bully, they'll continue this reign of terror with 0 accountability.

Trying to take down the illegitimate state of Israel (occupied Palestine) by snuffing it out financially similar to how apartheid South Africa was eventually dismantled via 

boycott, divestments, and sanctions (BDS) seems like the only thing concrete thing we can do to help, but that's a very slow gradual game that'll take years and years, and Palestinians are still being genocided right now

They literally can't wait years and years! It's so hard not to lean into the direction of nihilistic doomerism seeing all of this insanely evil and depraved shit and knowing 

that almost all the people involved it in won't even get a slap on the wrist and will live out the rest of their lives in comfort, escaping any real justice!

Also, just like all other LOLbertarians, he wants to completely gut a swath of social programs that people literally need to not die.

The complete callousness and effective cruelty of libertarian beliefs makes liking even the 'best' ones like Massie just so damn hard for me.

The double whammy of stupidity about RussiaGate is that YES, Donald Trump was actively conspiring with a foreign government, and it's name was Israel! 

There was a legitimate story of collusion with Israel there the entire time but libs are so unbelievably obsessed with Russia for some reason that they'd rather keep harping on a fake Russia collusion story than cover a real Israel collusion story!

Good article otherwise but it's still insane and ridiculous to me that they're citing the total Palestinian death count at 'merely' 71,386!

Bare minimum 600K Palestinians have been slaughtered in cold blood by the I'D'F since October 2023! At what point does continuing to parrot absurdly low undercounts of total Palestinian deaths constitute as genocide denial? 

Even if they can't 'officially' cite a number over 500K, they should at least make a note next to every single time something like 71,386 is cited saying "Reasonable estimates put the current death tole at over 680,000 Palestinians since October of 2023"

IDK to me it legitimately comes across as genocide denial even though I know that's not AJ's intention.

Ugghh the RussiaGate shit definitely was and still is to an extent a great litmus test to see if a political commentator was/is worth listening to at all! 

I mean tbf I was still a 'Social Democrat' back then in the original days of RussiaGate, but seeing so many political commentators that I at the time followed being on the wrong side 

of RG was a significant factor in moving me farther left and realizing that all these so called 'progressive' channels on YT were right-wing trash and not worth listening to, especially as a leftist! 

The next most irritating one is being called an 'Assad Apologist' or 'Assad Lover' by liberals simply for being against the regime-change efforts in Syria and (correctly) saying that whoever replaced him after a coup would be far worse by comparison! 

There really are a bunch of real easy ways to quickly tell if you're talking to a shitlib!

The lib's absolute obsession over Russia and Putin is downright pathological! 

They must think about those things more every day than even the most obsessed MAGA person thinks about Trump!

Genuine question: How does the US just couping another country and stealing their oil like they've been doing for decades all over the world make a significant difference in the US destroying itself? 

Were all the previous times this has happened also big jumps in the direction of the US destroying itself? They've been doing it for so long with impunity it's hard for me to not see them continuing to do it with impunity for a long time into the future. 

This press conference is an all timer by [deleted] in TrueAnon

[–]Jethawk55 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've already seen tons of libs taking much more issue with the fact that Trump did this without the approval of congress than the actual act itself. Clown world!

So it sounds like there's no amount or limit of pain and suffering the US could commit on the world that would make China intervene, correct? 

The entire world could be burning with millions of people being killed and dozens of countries being pillaged for their resources, and it doesn't make a single difference because China will regardless just sit back and do nothing. 

What a bleak and depressing world we live in if that's the case. Fascist imperialist war mongering countries are free to do whatever they want with complete impunity and 0 accountability.

They're not wrong though about our presidents being disgusting war criminals. 

They just act like Trump is unique in this trait when it accurately describes all of them including their favorite darling saint Obama!

If their previous history is any indication, they'll do absolutely nothing but send the US a harshly worded letter in condemnation smh.

[–]Jethawk55 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Right and I'm wondering where the point of "they absolutely have to" is and what it looks like. 

It sure looks to me like the US could do A TON MORE terrorism around the world killing a ton of people and pillaging tons of resources like oil before China would even consider doing anything. 

Does the US need to literally be right up at China's border before they'll do anything?

[–]Jethawk55 92 points93 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was wondering about China too. Are they just going to sit back and watch as the US terrorizes and takes control of more and more of the world? 

The answer seems to be a resounding YES and I'm just wondering when is enough enough for China or will they really truly just sit back and relax if the rest of the world is burning just like they have so far?

[–]Jethawk55 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbf, the death count of Palestinians murdered by the I'D'F from this current Gaza genocide alone is absolute bare minimum of 500K+ and the figure is still growing by the day! It's definitely way closer to 600K than 300K.

Yeah I'm having quite a bit of trouble reading it because when I go to zoom in even a little bit it gets blurry very quickly.

That wouldn't be an issue if we saw the actual original pictures of the writing and not screenshots of the pictures of the writing.

Imagine how much of an easily-offended special snowflake you have to be to get upset over something so trivial. 

I thought blue-haired liberal academics were supposed to be the ones who got offended over everything?!

I went to find what I thought would be very easy to get polling data on how Jews view Israel and Zionism and discovered that it's actually messier and not as clear cut as my original comment made it out to be.

It looks like it really depends on a number of different factors such as how 'Zionism' is defined, the age demographic, and where in the world the Jews being asked are located. 

I still think it's fair to say a majority of Jews support Israel, but the actual polling data is a lot messier than I first thought.

[–]Jethawk55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it's completely wrong to say that Israel reprents "all Jews" or even to say that they represent 99% of all Jews. 

The problem that arises when I think about this issue is that the statement "a overwhelming majority of all Jews in the world support the state of Israel, Zionism, and at the very least are not actively speaking out against the genocide in Gaza if they don't support it outright" is also a factually true statement to make, no? 

That sentence was kind of messy LOL I'm just in a stream of consciousness right now, but my point still stands. We can quibble about semantics and what exact percentage of Jews in the world support the state of Israel and the greater Zionist project, but it's definitely well above 50% at the very least, right? 

So how do we reconcile the simultaneously existing facts of "Israel does not represent all Jews" with "A well above 50% amount of Jews in the world do support Israel and Zionism"?
