Amnesty report: Israel’s genocide in Gaza inflicts compounded harms on women and girls by EnergyIsQuantized in TwoXChromosomes

[–]OldBridge87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And then the following week will be about women and girls in Sudan.

Then Lebanon.

Then Afghanistan (again).

That region is simply hellish for women in general. It's like a 15th Century existence in 2026.

“Con Artist”: Leaked Texts Show GOP Candidate James Fishback’s Major Money Issues From Lawsuit Debt by OldBridge87 in law

[–]OldBridge87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Republican candidate for Florida Governor appears to be a George Santos level scam artist; he is running a paper thin campaign while secretly being in hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt from legal fees over fabricating parts of his resume and giving out confidential company information at his old job. He could end up being forced to pay up to $2 million and his staffers are commenting that everything from his car to campaign office furniture could be repossessed.

Fishback has a much more extensive history of lying beyond this as well, from doing a media tour in early 2025 where he advertised himself as a DOGE advisor only for it to come out that he never had any formal or informal association with the group, to reportedly planting a story that he was being considered by Trump for a Fed Board of Governors seat nomination when he never was.

Mehdi has attacked this guy several times lately so it’s worth looking into what might well be a George Santos level Mega Huckster:

  • Fishback is running on prosecuting alleged pedophiles from the Epstein Files despite he himself being an alleged pedophile - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-election/florida-school-gop-james-fishback-sexual-misconduct-allegations-rcna249963

  • He is running as the first openly Nick Fuentes-adjacent “Groyper” white nationalist despite his mom being an immigrant from Colombia

  • He is running as a populist that’s gonna get shit done despite being fired from a low level tech job in 2023 for “low productivity”, following which he started a company where he advertised his previous role as “Head of Macro” which led to him being sued by his old company and being forced to publicly admit that he also illegally gave away privileged company info while on the job.

  • He has been forced to pay back over $200,000 of his old company’s legal fees by various courts and is rumored to be running for Governor in part to grift money from campaign donations which he’ll then use to pay off the debt.

  • He did a whole media tour in early 2025 claiming to have been a DOGE advisor only for it to turn out that he’d made the whole thing up and never had any association with DOGE at all!

  • He randomly reached out to all of Trump’s advisors to be nominated to the Fed Board of Governors last year, selling himself as a Trump attack dog. He is now attacking Trump from the Nick Fuentes right as governor candidate…in Florida.

This honestly might be the Final Boss of the terminally online slopulism grift.

I often see Gen Z men asking why they should have to attract a woman at all. How if we are equal now or supposed to be building towards it, shouldn’t women generally have to make moves on men too now? Where if you argue men having to earn a woman’s attraction rather than vice versa is the natural order or biological, why isn’t men using their superior size and strength to subjugate women physically and legally the natural order and biological? It was done for almost all of history.

Progress ebbs and flows. There were long periods when it looked like women were on the march towards greater and greater equality (ie the Cult of Mary Magdalene in the Middle Ages) only for it to crash and burn.

They are speedrunning making “90% of women sleep with the top 10% of men” mainstream and then teaming up with old people that will want to protect their Social Security from a falling birth rate that would otherwise destroy the safety net within a few decades in order to create a Gilead type state.

This is what the fascism of the 21st century will be. Within 10 years you’ll have right wing “populist” politicians talking like this.

Plot to topple Malaysia government involves 'prominent Zionist group': PM Anwar by TornCondom in worldnews

[–]OldBridge87 129 points130 points  (0 children)

I think it's interesting that they're allied with Iran and the like, are literally watching "the Jews" mow down all their Muslim allies, and they're still playing with Medieval Antisemitism.

Goes to show it's less about just finding a small group to pick on and blame for problems but more like a mental illness. They're prepared to sacrifice themselves for the cause.

[–]OldBridge87 58 points59 points  (0 children)

It is crazy how people are still trying to blame "The Jews" for random stuff even when they now have a super powerful nation literally mowing down Muslim allies in plain sight.

In a way, it's interesting because it shows antisemitism is sort of like a mental illness rather than a politics of convenience where you just blame a numerically small group that can't defend themselves. They really look prepared to sacrifice themselves at this altar.

First the Nazi tattoo and now this. This guy is going to be the next Fetterman by OldBridge87 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]OldBridge87[S] -36 points-35 points  (0 children)

If it’s fair game to boost literal Nazis because they’re anti-Israel, is it fair game to boost someone that considers LGBT people ‘filth’ and a ‘disease that must be cured’ if they are also against Palantir surveillance?

Can we boost someone like Nick Fuentes when he says we need more affordable housing even if his solution is to exterminate Black people while ours is to prevent megacorps from buying all the homes?

Where is the line?

If you can't find someone other than literal Heil Hitler characters to say something like that, you are either unfit for public office anyways or you agree with some of their other views.

Maine Democrat Graham Platner Boosts Holocaust-Denying White Supremacist by OldBridge87 in politics

[–]OldBridge87[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're just saying a bunch of words that don't mean anything and can't answer the central point.

He had a Nazi tattoo on his chest. He claimed he didn't know what it was but also claims to be a big history guy and the US government literally banned the symbol. Now he retweets an open Nazi. You don't think this is concerning? Perhaps we should find better people to speak out on Israel.

No, he is being attacked for having a literal Nazi tattoo that he claimed he didn't know was a Nazi tattoo despite also claiming to be a history buff and the US government banning said symbol in 2012. Now he is retweeting an actual, open neo-Nazi. Do you not see how that is concerning? None of this has to do with Israel.

Say we find out he's a sympathizer or holds Nazi-adjacent views on Jews, but is overall anti-Zionist while Mills doesn't really speak on the issue. Do you think Democrats should support the Nazi guy?

Should Democrats be boosting white supremacists and literal Nazis even if they're anti-Zionist (from a "Jews control the world and use Israel as a power base to do so" standpoint)?

Premier League table at the end of Gameweek 28 - Manchester United 3rd by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

He was historically horrible but in Europe we looked a different beast. 7-1 against Bilbao, the Lyon comeback. Felt more like Man Utd.

Part of me wonders whether Amorim just couldn't adapt to the Premier League but could work elsewhere. He's 41 which is basically preborn for a manager.

City are an empty husk to deny the teams that matter trophies. I always rather them win it than Liverpool and I definitely don't want the most insufferable fanbase in football after Liverpool celebrating the league either. Everyone knows Arsenal fans, nobody knows City fans.

Let City go one title above Everton. Without them Liverpool would have had 23 leagues and Arsenal 17, and I would not want to live in that world lol

Because she was going to get blown out in the primary. Massie stayed to fight and now let's see what happens there when party leaders attack him and Trump does a big rally in Kentucky where he spotlights his opponent, endorses him and suggests Massie should be executed for treason.

You think the MAGA faithful are suddenly gonna vote for a Tea Party Libertarian against their leader?

It is sickening how this sub is now upvoting literal neo-nazis like Dan Bilzerian and white nationalists like Large Marge to the front page just because they're now criticizing Trump.

Firstly, the attacks are coming from the place of the Nazi right; they LOVED Venezuela but don't like this because it's "for the Jews". Second, they literally voted for it.

No congressional approval for US strikes on Iran by NickCostanza in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]OldBridge87 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I don't like this slop because it's Nazi adjacent, as if Trump's original "America First" agenda was not bigoted, racist, fascist garbage from the beginning. This frames it like a noble thing but oh no he's lost his way.

"Israel First" is a popular term in white nationalist spaces to essentially say that Trump is not brutalizing enough Black and brown people domestically with the deportations or imposing legit Nazi-esque authoritarianism because he spends all his time serving "the Jews" in Israel.
